Hannity's "Freedom" concert is a money scam
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/8/6/6165/93743
...After weaving through voluminous amounts of carefully crafted,
parsed language and following up on the reporting of news hounds and
a daily kos diarist it appears that Sean Hannity and Oliver North are
using the name of dead American soldiers to garner profits for a right
wing organization masquerading as a charity.
...Sean Hannity claims that his concerts are "to benefit the freedom
alliance scholarship fund for the children of America's Military
heroes featuring Country Music Stars Montgomery Gentry, Leann Rimes,
and Lee Greenwood." A closer looks at the facts tell a different
story.

Partisan reneges on charity

In a lawsuit filed last month, Mass. Eye & Ear says the foundation has
so far paid half the $2 million, and is demanding the balance. The
hospital says the donation was meant for the institution and not for
any particular researcher. Accepting a gift for one doctor ''would
raise serious legal questions under the tax law and under
Massachusetts charitable law," the hospital's lawsuit says.

Tractor trailers, tank recovery vehicles, crates of machine guns and
rocket propelled grenades are just a sampling of more than $1 billion
in unaccounted for military equipment and services provided to the
Iraqi security forces, according to a new report issued today by the
Pentagon Inspector General and obtained exclusively by the CBS News
investigative unit. Auditors for the Inspector General reviewed
equipment contracts totaling $643 million but could only find an audit
trail for $83 million.

Give Anne Hathaway's Ex Credit (Cards)
...But a check of charities registered with the name Society (etc.)
comes up with very little. There are a couple of organizations listed
through GuideStar, the charity registry, under that name. Only one, in
Pittsburgh, has any money: $100,000 in net assets.
...However, the New York version of the Society is listed,
mysteriously, as the Duwel Company, at 366 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
...A year ago, Follieri was named according to a press release, “a
special consultant to the national office of the Pontifical Mission
Societies in the United States by the national director, Monsignor
John E. Kozar.”
On not one of the three Duwel tax filings do they indicate where the
money came from or where it went. They use only this as an explanation
on their tax filing:

By C. Welton Gaddy July 15, 2008
Religious charities have received government aid for charitable
missions for decades, but only if the charity was a separate 501(c)(3)
organization, apart from the church or denomination that supports it.
Mr. Bush changed the law to allow government money to be given
directly to houses of worship....

Financial Questions For Olmert`s Charity: Where Did All That
Evangelical Money Go?
http://www.israelenews.com/view.asp?ID=2665
Foundation never spent a significant amount of funds raised in
American South for Israeli terror victims in 2002.
Morris Talansky testified that he gave Ehud Olmert payments totaling
$150,000.
With some 53,000 residents in the state’s rural north-central
flatlands, Monroe, La., is not the kind of town that would normally
expect to play host to the mayor of Jerusalem. But in October 2002,
Ehud Olmert came to the county seat of Ouachita Parish to urge 500 to
1,000 Evangelical Christians to give, and give generously, to support
victims of terrorism in the Holy City he then governed.
The vehicle Olmert offered for their donations was the New Jerusalem
Foundation (NJF) — a charitable organization he had established as
mayor two years earlier to fund civic projects in Jerusalem with
philanthropic money and municipal cooperation.

September 11 and the tragedy industry

The late George Carlin said if Jesus came back, he probably would not
be too thrilled to see everyone wearing a crucifix since he was
brutally hung and stabbed on one. The same probably goes for the 9/11
victims and Liberian commemorative 9+11 = $20 bills. Maybe if we
rethink how we honor tragedy, there will be less of a market for this
shameful exploitation. Regardless, I take solace in the fact that the
Liberian plates are limit five per customer.

Meek Foundation tackles ambitious Opa-locka project
Miami-Dade County officials plan to lease 121 acres at the Opa-locka
Executive Airport to a foundation started by former U.S. Rep. Carrie
Meek.
http://www.miamiherald.com/news/miami_dade/story/607401.html
Posted on Thu, Jul. 17, 2008
In 1986, Miami-Dade commissioners tapped a politically connected
nonprofit to bring new businesses and much-needed jobs to Opa-locka
Executive Airport.
After more than two decades with nothing to show for it, the county
canceled that deal. Now commissioners are considering another
nonprofit -- also with political pull -- to jump-start development on
the fallow parcel.
