Obama recently remarked that America has a "fundamental belief" that "I am my brother's keeper."
Yet, Obama's tax returns from 2000 - 2007 find that he only gave 1% to charity between 2000-2004. When he was gearing up for a Presidential run, he raised the amount they gave to charity to 5% in 2005 and 6% in 2006.
Also, while they live in an expensive home, he makes a comfortable living (at the taxpayers expense) and his wife makes a nice $300K salary as a VP a Chicago hospital - he has relatives living in slums both in the U.S. and abroad.
So Obama isn't willing to give his own money to be his brother's keeper.
But he is more than willing to use your money to be his brother's keeper.
