Isn't that the truth! She is probably of the mindset that she needs OPM. Other people's money.

Lots of people try to use non-profit organizations which they set up -- as a way to make money for themselves.

So, her "con" is to use the anti-war sentiment.

No, lots of people USE non-profits to make money. I've been ranting about this for years here. Did you know that Consumers Union is a non-profit? The group that publishes Consumers Reports? The took in $160 million in 2004 and have assets of $90+ million if I recall correctly. Or how about the Carter Center? Jimmah Carters organization. In 2003 they took in $127 million and have a huge amount of assets. Or what about Judicial Watch? They have collected $70+ million the past few years. How how about PETA? Etc, etc, etc.

These are hardly charities. Many of these outfits are in business to push their political egendas and/or enrich their handlers. We need to reform the non-profit corp. laws in America!!!!
