Dick Cheney Donates Millions to Charity (77.89% of income given to charity)
In one of the largest sums ever donated to charity by a U.S. public official, Vice President Dick Cheney and his wife Lynne gave away nearly $7 million last year to help the poor and to medical research.
According to income tax information released by the White House on Friday, the Cheneys’ adjusted gross income in 2005 was $8,819,006.
The sum was largely the result of Mr. Cheney’s stock options from Halliburton and royalties from three books written by Mrs. Cheney.
The Cheneys gave more than three-quarters of their income - $6,869,655 - to several charities, including George Washington University’s Cardiothoracic Institute and a charity for low-income high school students in the Washington, D.C. area, Capital Partners for Education.

Where in the hell do you get your information, Joe? Cheney killed 500,000 Iraqi CHILDREN? I guess when you add into your imagined figures another 500,000 deaths of Iraqi adults to go with those imaginary children, Cheney has killed over 1,000,000 Iraqis. It would be great if you were correct, Joe, but that is just wishful thinking on your part.
Joe Biden’s diarrhia of the mouth likely WILL kill millions of people… but they will likely be Americans, not Iraqis.
… And Joe Biden gave less than $800.00
So… between the two, who is the bad guy?
