I heart Oprah!

Clint

Stay chooned in for more!
i just wanted you guys to know the AMAZING thing Oprah did, she's donating 40 MILLION dollars to the children of Africa!

I loved her before but now i REALLY love her!
 
ok Now the thing is who did she donate it too, and is that funds really going to get to the children? Its one thing to through money at a problem to feel good about yourself, but its another things to have it accualy get to the children. There is just tons of money tossed to the "children" of africa that never makes it there. The food that is suposed to get to the children gets intercepted by the warlords and nothing ever gets fixxed. Its a good jesture, but I duno if its will do any good. To much jenicide there. The warlords don't give a crap about the children and will take that money to finance their domination of africa.
 
Oprah is a bright person...I think she would investigate organizations THOROUGHLY before flinging a "measley" 40Mil to someone.

I wish I had money...there are a lot of things I'd to donate to.
 
What about the "Get Pak a fulltime electrcian" fund?

i'm sorry, really i am...

lmao, i'm just messing with you alex
 
Girls don't have the same access to education in lots of places and are raised to be deferential to boys. So starting a girls-only school in such a place makes sense. But it's a lot easier to come up with money to start a school than to sustain one. Much greater photo op potential.

What's wrong with that. That's the way it's suppose to be.
 
I'll say it. After so many insertions, my foot goes right in my mouth without even a problem.
 
Some people just have more money than they know what to do with.
