Andy McCarthy posts over in the Corner how President Obama has donated $200,000 to the charities of Quaddafiโs children, daughter Aisha and son Saif.
Hereโs how Aishaโs charity spends its cash:
The Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at U.S. President George W. Bush was given a bravery award on Monday by a Libyan charity group chaired by leader Muammar Gaddafiโs daughter.
The charity group Wa Attassimou also urged the Iraqi government to release television reporter Muntazer al-Zaidi after he was detained on Sunday for hurling footwear at Bush and calling the president a โdogโ โ both severe insults in the Middle East.
โWaatassimou group has taken the decision to give Muntazer al-Zaidi the courage award โฆ because what he did represents a victory for human rights across the world,โ the group, headed by Aicha Gaddafi, said in a statement.
Aisha also has a legal career and was on the Saddam Husseinโs legal defense team.
And hereโs a little nugget on Saif:
It is not the first time he has attracted controversy on this most sensitive issue in Anglo-Libyan relations. Last year Saif complained that relatives of some of the 270 victims of Pan Am flight 103 were โgreedyโ โ after Libya had agreed a $2.7bn (ยฃ1.64bn) compensation payout and accepted โresponsibility for the actions of its officialsโ.
Well, with ACORN no longer able to take taxpayer money, I guess you gotta give it to someone.
