Central Asia Institute donation

The Daily Beast article Is Three Cups of Tea Writer Greg Mortenson a Fraud? on a 60 Minutes report is disturbing in the sense that President Obama gave this guy part of his Nobel prize monetary award without first checking that the Central Asia Institute (CAI) was legitimate.  It says the CAI had only filed filed tax returns once in 14 years.  That Obama's people could not even do a basic check such as this before making a public donation is ridiculous.  I seriously question the competency of his inner circle.

  1. That's crazy. Obama has a bigger staff, including the First Lady's army of servants, than any other president in history and they can't properly vet this guy?!
