This makes him more generous than Ted Cruz, at least superficially.

Ted would rather be more superficial than generous.

EXACTLY. I thought libtards were supposed to SHARE, right? 4% sounds GREEDY.

It is only an election. We have them all the time. Nothing changes for the better. So why the angst?

A penny or two on the dollar is pretty superficial, that’s for sure.

He should be giving all of his income away.

Big deal! I gave about 40% of my money to the government.

40% is close to waste deep.

Well Bernie can honestly say he gave in his taxes with his blessings.

You just don’t understand the scheme (rhetorical you, not necessarily bigbob).

The point here is who is going to make Caesar look the most like a church. Not the least! The more “charity” Caesar sends out, the better under this model. Ted Cruz can’t hope to come up to that level.

I know, what a ghastly ungodly thought. And you (rhetorical you) are right, it is. But we might as well be honest about our blasphemy, if we are going to insist on blaspheming.

Ah, “Birtherism” is so yesterday. It’s now okay to use Rorschach tests on judges to figure out what the Constitution means.

Or as I quipped about Donald Trump. He’s a pig, okay. But he’s our pig. Not Canada’s pig :-)

The share of his family’s income that went to charity was about one-third the percentage of income that his primary opponent, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and her husband, former President Bill Clinton.

Cruz definitely should start the Cruz Foundation, maybe he could even get Glenn Beck to start the Church of Cruzology. Then Cruz could look as generous as Hillary.

Commies are generous with everyone else’s money, never their own. Besides, he needs to keep some for whatever it is he’s smokin’.
