Barack Obama’s brother accused of fraud over charity he set up in family name
UK Daily Mail ^ | May 9, 2011 | Daily Mail Reporter

The Barack H Obama Foundation, an American charity set-up and run by the U.S. President's half-brother, has been accused of fraud.

Washington watchdog group, The National Legal and Policy Center made the accusation last week in a formal complaint to the IRS and US Post Office.

The group has accused the organisation of 'soliciting tax-deductible contributions from the public although it is not tax exempt,' according to the NLPC website.

The charity claims to aid poor Kenyans. But it is accused of lying about being federally recognised amid claims no one knows where the money is going.

Abon'go Malik 'Roy' Obama, 53, the President's half-brother, set the charity up in 2008 when Barack was running for presidency, naming it after their shared father.

“Malik is one of few Muslims in a village of 4,000 Christians, with a private mosque on his property, The Post reported. He recently caused a stir by acquiring a third, teenage wife.”

Man. Can you imagine if President Bush’s half brother had just aquired a third teenage wife.

It would be on TV 24/7 for 3-5 months, IMO.

Thanks — I searched, but it seems each article’s title is a little different.

For some reason (the past is prologue), I don’t think the American people will see anything irregular here.

Yes, good point, but it won’t convince the American people.

It would if it were presented to them. It’s just not.

Roy Obama is a piker when it comes to larceny/

Barak Hussein Obama and his comrades in DC have stolen over a trillion dollars in less than three years.

FINALLY, I AM TRUSTING ON YOUR FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE ABOVE AND HOPING THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY.
