Anyone that is stupid enough to donate to United Way has been living under a rock!!!!
United Way has been known for taking donations from America and back when Russia was the USSR , the United Way used to take boxed from America and relabel them USSR .That was just ONE of the many things this commie UNAmerican United Way has done. They are about as United as a lib being a good person to a conservative.
Thanks for the ping Cool Guy. Can you tell I hate United Way.LOL
Can you tell I hate United Way?
You are not alone :)
This further reinforces the reasons why I have never given one thin dime to the United Way... and why I never will.
Demand their business license be taken away. This is AIDING THE ENEMY!

I've always loathed the United Way, now I just have more reason.
Hey, Terrorists are also victims, right?< /sarcasm>
The United Way has supported the Legal Aid Society before, so the fact that a fund of the United Way was sending money Legal Aid's way should be completely unshocking.
Further, the Legal Aid Society is a favorite of everyone's favorite, Ramsey Clark. Many of the senior attorneys at Legal Aid came from Clark's practice, and many of the lawyers, employed by the various umbrella groups that Clark is a mouthpiece for, come from the Legal Aid Society. They are kindred spirits, and work closely together.
Ramsey Clark's group has long taken charitable donations under the guise of high-minded sounding ideals (such as legal aid for the poor, or funding alternative sources of media for the underprivileged) and used them for criminal defense of terrorists and subversives (such as Mumia) or for distributing communist propaganda and instruction to prisoners in jail.
Last year, for example, hundreds of thousands IIRC flowed from the Fidelity Charitable Gift Fund to the coffers of groups directly controlled by the International Action Center (another Clark group). This money went, in part, to pay for the preparations for the protest against our war on September 29th (as well as the activities I described above).
Not only would I not doubt that Legal Aid got money from the September 11th Fund, I would be surprised if they didn't.
(Clark has also been involved with defending some of Bin Laden's men before, btw).
Outrageous! I did a little research on United Way, here is the result:
As of October 26, the September 11th Fund has received nearly $334 million in pledges. Included in that figure is $150 million in pledges generated by the Tribute to Heroes September 11th Telethon Fund. Individuals, corporations and communities from all points of the globe have contributed to The September 11th Fund.
The September 11th Fund makes grants to established nonprofit agencies that work at the frontlines, providing support and services to victims, their families, and others affected by the September 11th tragedy. These nonprofit agencies in turn give the assistance victims need.
