Except this NYT article shows a very generous man in the REAL world not needing to brag about his generosity.
Can you show me an example of Obama doing something generous in his past?
It is a good article and a nice thing Romney did...unfortunately the full extent of Romney's flawed character and atrocious ethics crushes this little nugget of good will.
The REAL Romney is a fake flawed creation lacking conviction. The very thought of an aspiring Commander in Chief who vacillates so easily should give any pause.
President Barack Obama plans to donate the $1.4 million from his Nobel Peace Prize to helping students, veterans' families and survivors of Haiti's earthquake, among others, drawing attention to organizations he said "do extraordinary work."
Obama is giving a total of $750,000 to six groups that help kids go to college. Fisher's House, which provides housing for families with loved ones at Veterans Administration hospitals, will receive $250,000, the White House said Thursday. And the Bush-Clinton Haiti Fund, for which two former presidents are raising money to rebuild earthquake-ravaged Haiti, will receive $200,000.
The rest of the money will go to an array of other groups.
Yes, that's true! That's why it was such a surprise to read something favorable towards Romney in the liberal NYT!!
My challenge to Liberals still stands......
Please post a link to a story detailing how Obama ever helped out a family with his own money.
Omg, who cares. When you're as rich as Romney you can afford to help as many families as you want. It's just a drop in the bucket to them. Sorry that the Obama's aren't as wealthy. But why should that even matter. This won't win him any votes.
It is a sad day in America to see the lies that people on the left are putting out on a guy that has lived a very clean life. He raised a good family, all his children are doing well, no Kennedy kids with the drugs, drinking etc, but hard working children.

What lies are you talking about?
* All those angelic Republicans and their kids - please!
* Here's the big lie. Nobody on the "left" is jealous of the family's wealth, "hates the successful", or thinks the family is evil. That's the lie perpetrated by the rightist media always grasping for any tidbit they can dream up. However the Romneys are set for life - nice job if you can get it.
* The "American dream" of the American plutocratic right is being born into wealth and old money with stock portfolios and money managers already in place. So even in a prosperous America this mentality (the one we rebelled against) is always out there, waiting its chance at takeover of government for its own benefit. The "work ethic" is esteemed by traditional conservatives (who are now nullified in the repub party), and moderates and liberals (now demonized by the "conservative" media).
* Big lie number two is that liberals (now redefined as anyone left of plutocracy) hate work or the work ethic. Unfortunately, it seems like many "traditionals" are suckered by Fox "news".
No, the rap against Romney is that many believe he will be a puppet of Wall Street - pure and simple.
