COMPASSIONATE "CONSERVATISM" RUN AMUCK.

Obama's church of hate has received $15 million of you tax dollars over the last decade and a half.  I'm less interested in how much of that money came to Trinity via the political muscle of Barack Obama than I am in how many of those Federal tax dollars went to build Rev. Jeremiah Wright's $1.6 million mansion in an exclusive white neighborhood.

UPDATE:  AllahPundit has more details and some thoughts.

UPDATE II:  Trinity Church expenses $21,000 per child enrolled in its day care center.  I'm guessing a chunk of that money does find it's way in Rev. Wright's back pocket. 

Note well, the pre-tax median personal income of workers in the United States in 2005 was $28,567.  In other words, one child enrolled in daycare at Trinity Church just about eats up the annual income of the median worker in America.

In Illinois, the median annual tax payed by joint filers is $5,209.  So if all of those taxes dedicated solely to childcare, it takes the support of eight Americans -- four couples -- to pay for the childcare of one Trinity daycare child.
