I find this amazing, really.

Obama's charitable donations

Quote:
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and his wife Michelle gave $10,772 of the $1.2 million they earned from 2000 through 2004 to charities, or less than 1 percent
Even with increases in their giving in the next couple of years, they still only got up to about 5% charitable giving on over 2.6 million in income.

I don't begrudge them their wealth in the least. I'd love to make that much. But less than 1% on 1.2 million dollars in income? That's lame. Sorry, but for a couple to make that much and give so little is lame.
