Bobby O'Rourke: I Don't Need to Give Charity, Running for Office is Charity Enough

I can't think of a more Kennedyesque response than the one that Robert Francis 'Bobby' O'Rourke just gave.

Beto O'Rourke defends meager donations to charity, saying he sacrifices through public service.

I would think that employing Bobby on the public dime so his billionaire father-in-law doesn't have to, would be our sacrifice.

Clearly the lefty message about Americans subsidizing billionaires has a point when it comes to Bobby.

Beto O'Rourke defended his meager rate of charitable giving on Tuesday night, saying that he doesn't report all of his donations to the IRS and in any case, he contributes in other ways through his work in politics.

"I've served in public office since 2005. I do my best to contribute to the success of my community, my state and now, of my country. There are ways that I do this that are measurable. And there are ways that I do this that are immeasurable," he said.

Bobby O'Rourke's contributions are "Immeasurable".
