I agree, give away. I choose to keep mine close to home. As far a embarrasing Barak, ain’t goona work. It’s a ploy to get your mind right for accepting the Global Poverty Act, then you won’t have a choice, you’ll give like it or not.

What is not in the story? Does the guy work? If so where? What are his wages? Does he have a bank account? What is he doing to help himself? Does he need help? Is he asking for it?

Just saying, check it out, I give but I know my money goes to people that need it and are not sucking the Gov’t teat.

What are you trying to do by raising George Obama's $12 annual income manyfold - turn him into a slumlord who owns lots of 6-square-meter shanties?
Yeah let's do it... he would need a community organizer for all those shanties...Barry will be available in early November.

Um.... okay how about all FReepers send me 12 bucks so I can get a new digital camera and travel back down to Jakarta to pick up the goods on Obama.

I paid for the last trip out of my own pocket and believe me, Im not rich. The only reason you waited a year for the photo evidence is because I didn't have a camera.

So Help Ensure that Obama never sees the White House and send in your donation Maceman. We need a guy like Soros.

Then you give girl. I notice you didn't address any of my other points. When GPA gets passed there will be a teat.

Give me a break, supporting PRIVATE CHARITY is nothing like acquiescing to a global tax!! So silly I didn’t think it deserved a response!

By your logic, passing out twenties to your neighbors in need is softening you up to support an expansion of our welfare programs!!!

OMG lady, you have it 180 deg wrong. You want to give to 3rd world people so how would you be opposed to GPA?

I choose to give directly to needy is in direct opposition to wwlfare. My 20.00 is 20.00 to the recipient, not the 5.00 after welfare gives it out.

Do you really know how bad off this guy is or are you just believing the report?

Seems like you really want to send this guy some money, hell, do it it’ll really make you ‘feel’ better.

I wrote Hannity last night about the idea.
I’m in for $12 if you guys can get it going.
Great idea to stick it to Hussian- and help this guy out.

Sorry buddy but last time I checked it is a free country and we are free to do whatever we wish with our money.

I’m sure your local private charity is going a long way to destroy welfare as we know it in this country. LOL!!

I send $10.00 per month to a former associate priest in my church who went home to Ghana to tend to his native flock so yes I do support third world people with my private charity. And it’s really no skin off your nose, now is it? Nor would I consider it evidence of my wholehearted support for some sort of global tax! That contortion of logic is simply ridiculous!

I, actually, am not personally inclined to send $12.00 to Obama’s brother even though it wouldn’t even make a dent in my personal fortune. I do my own thing. But I think it’s brilliant if someone orchestrates it!

I’d rather spend it at the USPS sending a care package to my deployed husband!

Now I’m getting to bed because it’s late and I suggest you do the same as the school bus will be along to pick you up bright and early!! :-)
