I agree that this is satire. And personally, I wouldn't expect these people to give away their money. If they came into that money in a fair and legal manner, then they deserve to keep it. Besides, Mr. and Mrs. Obama are not stupid people. They know that giving away a few million dollars wouldn't change a thing for less fortunate Americans. If they were to do this, it would be a publicity stunt, and nothing more. I'm sure there would be people singing their praises, but honestly it wouldn't change a thing. I know that, you know that, and they know that.

Of course, this is satire. How could it be anything else?

Amazing. The Obamas do something wonderful, and you guys find some way to make that look bad.


Very strange lot, you all are.

That's why they don't give much to charity, huh? I think Biden gave the least amount to charity but the Dems, as a whole, don't give much for all their talk about the poor.

Well that is to be determined if it is something wonderful.

FYI the Babylon Bee is a Christian satire site. Much better than the Onion btw.

This note is at the bottom of each page -

Maybe they'll just do it until they can prove they got better rankings than The Apprentice and then they'll quit.

Nope, they go to FOX News for that.
