But bentlebee, they don't want to give to people with their OWN money...they want to use OURS! God forbid Obama send $20 to his brother in Kenya out of his own pocket. Now if he can get the American taxpayers to support his brother in Kenya, he'd probably be willing to help his brother out then.
Of for chrissakes, please stop acting like you give a da*n about Obama's brother. You have no idea what their relationship is.
And unless you make more than $250,000/year, you would not get a tax increase under Obama. Of course, now that the Republicans have ruined the economy, your tax dollars will go to pay off the $10Trillion debt.
The fact that Biden doesn't give speaks volumes. I give to charity and the amount I save on taxes does not come close to the amount I give.
If your wondering. I give to these:
ARC of wyoming county. Group homes for special needs people.
Autism research foundation.
Cure autism now(can) foundation.
My total is about 4g. I also donate a lot of time and effort to the ARC.
I don't need a pat on the back my daughter is autistic. Its what a good dad should do.

Oh no the Democrats have ruined it by stopping the reforms! Get the facts straight..
Oh and 250,000 are allot of small business owners that cannot afford a tax increase! But who gives a sh*t about them right. Well you should because they will be letting people go or closing up shop how will that trickle down affect you and others I wonder?

Oh yeah. The Republicans have controlled Congress for most of the past 10 years, yet it's the fault of the Democrats. How's that possible, Miborn? I mean, if the Republicans have the majority, they should be able to pass all those regulatory "reform" bills they introduced, right? How many were there? Oh yeah: ONE. And that ONE exempted most major banking institutions from the regulation. PLUS: It never made it out of committee for a vote, if I remember correctly. Get real.
It's easy to give 27% of your income away when you rake in millions of dollars each year, own 10 houses and are married to a friggin heiress. What is Barack Obama's net worth? 2 mil?

McCain gave in 2007, 27,3% in gifts, Obama 5.8%, Palin 3.8%, Biden 0.3%
Interesting that Palin gave so much ore than Biden. I don't know what each of them makes, but I suspect their salaries are not comparable.
With all the money that Obama makes (second largest ricipient of Freddie and/or Fannie), he probably could give a tad more. It would be interesting to know what non-profits he supports.

How do you explain what Palin gives? You just don't make sense!
I'm wondering how much McCain saved in taxes by giving 27.3%. You have to learn how to actually understand statistics. Warren Buffett said that his secretary paid more in taxes than he did. How is that possible, you ask? That the world's richest man paid less in taxes than his secretary, who makes $65,000/year? It's all about the "charity," pal.
Less percentage wise.
