Hey Cleets, the story is bad enough that you really don't need to pump it up with 90% goes to Hannity. He's obviously a douchebag and certainly appears to be fleecing people. It will be interesting to see if more comes out on this because some of the information in this is almost treated as a blind item sort of thing. I liked the bit at the end with the fella that mentioned actually looking at the 990 and reporting they had spent more on mailings than they had spent on victims.

Hannity is a douche and always has been. This just confirms it even more. :x

Ouch. Take in 48 million since '03 and pay out 1.7 million to vets and their families while flying your entourage to the concerts in a Gulfstream G5, all under the guise of helping the families of injured vets?

$200 to a triple amputee! :shocking: Is this a charity or a health insurance company?


Any veteran who crosses paths with Hannity is honor-bound to immediately kick a mud hole in his ass and stomp it dry on behalf of the poor bastards in whose name this orgy of high living is being perpetrated.

I looked at the "about me" section on the website as I had never heard of this person before. She's done her share of anti-radical Islam reporting and undercover work and is a big time conservative.

If this woman is as reputable as it seems, Hannity could have a massive fall from grace if this is brought out into the open. And he'll deserve it too. What a joke.

If Hannity were a Democrat this would be all over the republican lap-dog msm. :nod: Oh yes it would.

How many events have you successfully organized for charity, dawg? What was your overhead?

When did you surpass Hannity''s $1.7 to vets and their families?

3.6% of their revenue actually went to helping vets and their families, native. I wish I could say I can't believe you're defending this guy on this, but I really can. :nod:

A charity is not legit in my book unless at least 75% of a charity's income is going to their charitable cause. Its why I very rarely donate to large charities. Too much administrative BS.

3.6% is a complete scam.

Naw, I am not defending 3.6%, and I don't like Hannity, I just think you jokesters are full of it.

My rule of thumb for CFC or any other charity is 10% for administrative costs, but I also recognize that the figures can be manipulated, so I also look at what is accomplished and who does the work.

Huh? So you're saying that a charity should donate all but 90% of its income to its cause, but somehow Hannity's charity is OK even though it donated a measly 3.6%? Solely becasue figures can be manipulated?

Oh and Native - take a look at their 990s. There's no manipulating figures there my friend.

EDIT - I just saw the part where you said you're not defending Hannity (even though its pretty clear you are actually trying to defend Hannity.) So what exactly are you trying to point out?

If true, a simultaneous mauling by crocodiles and wolves isn't tough enough for him.

The police and firefighters don't call me anymore either after I asked the guys how much goes to the families. Crickets, then a quick click. :ohno: I'm not sympathetic to anyone fleecing people in the name of church or charity.

My point is that I do not take douchebag loser lefties seriously. You do not fit the category. Dawg and GATW do fit the category. So I was not defending Hannity as much as I was spewing back at dawg and grizzthehallway.

Hi, boys! :kisswink: :kisswink:

EDIT: Danefan, good point about the 990's. I guess my point is that some organizations have better endowments than others, so if I think an organization is doing great work, I may be more lenient on the fundraising costs. My organization was 0.1% fundraising costs. :mrgreen:

Agreed, but you'd think they might get that question occasionally and be prepared for it. I knew the answer every time I asked it. :ugeek:

Organized? None. Participated in for twelve years while in the band bidniz? A shitload. None of them had anywhere near 97% overhead.
