I didn't know North was involved in it, but I wouldn't contribute anyway.

Well, their program/administration expense ratio is slightly above 4:1, which isn't great...but it's better than many. On the other hand, any organization founded by former Lt. Col. Ollie North gets nothing from me.

I remember hearing him on the radio talking about how he didn't give money to charity. Happily my car wasn't working too well, or I would have driven up to New York and wrung his dirty neck.

Hannity himself is a scam, as is his show. Why shouldn't his "charity" be?

An "axe to grind"? Politically she is on the same side as Hannity, is she not?

I read the article; if this is true, it is not the last we'll hear about it. Or at least I hope not.

Better than going to churches, I suppose.

I wouldn't be surprised if it were...but according to right wing blogger Debbie Schlussel it is. While she certainly does have an axe to grind, it appears she did the research before making her claims. The freedom alliance is a "charity" that donates money to wounded veterans, and scholarships to the children of slain soldiers. However, the money they dole out is rather paltry, especially with the millions they bring in from donations, concerts, and various assets. By the tax returns the vast majority goes for "expenses"...including postage expenses of over a million dollars. Her blog article is here. Her article also links to several tax returns filed by the organisation, and they do look rather damning.
