It's one of those I told you so moments because I'm so skeptical as to where all charity money goes that's raised from good hearted,soft touch rubes like you all that post here.
Has anyone been seeing this story spread all over the tv news shows where this ancient fart that looks like Ebineezer Scrooge was called to testify before congress where all the money he raised for wounded vets went?He kept 75% of nearly 200 million dollars and he and his family bought condos all over tarnation,boats,toys of every kind,Swiss bank accounts and country club memberships with it and it's all legal.
He paid many famous people like General Tommy Franks,singer Travis Tritt,etc.etc.etc.etc.100K each to go on tv commercials to solicit money for his charity.Of course,none of them ever gave the money back when they found out that the ringleader of the charity was a con artist.
The funny thing is,I saw people in congress grilling this old fart and condemning him for living lavishly off trusting people and spending money wildly never giving the money raised for what it was intended to be used for.Hmmmmm,that's coming from people in our congress who do worse than this all the time.hehe!What balls and ovaries people have in congress have to scold other con men for stealing and squandering money.hehe!
Then I hate to sound like a meanie because I know everyone out there,me included, have family and friends that have been wounded in wars whether you think they should have been fought or not.But,if you are a wounded vet,the government does spend a ton of money on you and you get alllot of entitlement checks.I see homeless-wounded Viet Nam Vets setting up begging booths in Vegas hitting the tourists up for money and it's a crock that they need extra money to live on.If you feel sorry and want to give them money for extra drugs and alcohol,that's up to you I guess.
Where I live, the national,state,county and local government are spending money hand over fist expanding veterans programs where they are putting ads out on tv and newspaper for returning Iraq vets to get counceling.They had these typical social welfare worker type women on the tv news being interviewed pleading with returning vets that said they were fine and dandy and ready to move on in life after Iraq that they needed help.Money on all this stuff is floating around everywhere going to waste.
