Obama's Nobel Prize money going to 10 charities

[xotoxi]

Kudos to him for donating the money (although he didn't deserve it in the first place).

Shame on him for using most of to promote racial politics.

I agree.

Those Appalachian kids don't need no college!

What an asshole...

... oh wait, sorry that was my reflexive and knee-jerk reaction. Good for him?

Damn, I don't know. It's still over an hour before Rush comes on the radio to tell me what to think.

There is really no harm no foul here, it's all good. Obama gives mostly unearned wealth away to a bunch of folks who moslty didn't earn it. Fits with his philosophy and he kept a promise as well. Good for him.

Glad the money will be going to charity. Good for the Prez on that one.

I must call the President on this act of generosity..The spreading of his wealth is going to lead to Socialism. Get your guns and hide in the closet..Obama has started it!!

You really need to get connected with reality.

It's good that he is actually going to give money to private organizations. But in doing so he has completely undermined his argument.

If he truly believed government spending was will fix the world, he would be giving his money to the government and not to private charities. It's conservatives who realize that true charity comes from giving to private charities and not the government.

So yes, Im rather happy that the President has decided to actually help people with his ill-gotten money.

Im just curious what he is doing with the interest.

This spreading the wealth is nothing short of SOCIALISM

He should have spent the money in struggling Las Vegas like a good rightwinger would have

Did you even bother to read where the money is going or did you just a certain name and go "OH MY GOD RACISM!"

Yes - charities devoted to serving people solely on the basis of their skin color.

However "noble" some of the activities may be - they still promote victimhood and separatism via racialist attitudes. There are MANY worthy charities that do not discriminate.
