NEWS ITEM: Obama to give $1.4 million Nobel prize to charity
President Barack Obama will donate the $1.4 million cash award that comes with the Nobel Peace Prize to charity, according to The Associated Press.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs says it's likely that more than one charity will share the windfall, the wire service reports. Gibbs says the president has yet to decide which charities will benefit from the award, according to the AP.
Somebody should check Obama's IRS filing next year to see if his favorite charity, ACORN, is the recipient of the Nobel Prize cash.
