Maybe because it's not "his" money he is giving away.. It's his campaign money...

Business as usual in Washington!..


"Democratic vice-presidential candidate Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. has paid more than $2 million in campaign cash to his family members, their businesses and employers over the years, a practice that watchdogs criticize as rife with potential conflicts of interest.


The money largely flowed from the coffers of Mr. Biden's failed presidential campaign during the past two years to a company that employs his sister and longtime campaign manager, Valerie Biden Owens, according to campaign disclosure filings.

The senator from Delaware also directed campaign legal work to a Washington lobbying and law firm founded by his son R. Hunter Biden, the disclosures show. "

You forget what he had to say in his own defense....he gives money in cash in church ....maybe a few pennies., but it is money!

And he gives his time!!! How many of us do volunteer work and give more money and have less income than Joe Biden, but I forget that is what Dem. stands for...distribute other peoples money and come accross like you are the Messiah!

why even post something from the washington times.

The Washington Times, the Huffington Post, Salon.com, N.Y. Post, and Fox news should be all of limits.

Unfair, and Unbalanced.
