Stephen Baldwin: How much would you pay for his restoration?
If you had to pick a charity to donate to right now, raise your hand if you would give your money to ... Stephen Baldwin.
Is your hand up? Yeah, we didn't think so. And perhaps that's why "The Restoration of Stephen Baldwin" campaign is still under the $100 mark since its launch four months ago.
The campaign, orchestrated by Florida-based businessman Lyn Fletcher, aims to restore Baldwin's personal wealth and Hollywood influence. Why? The Q & A section of the site says, "In March of 08 I saw Stephen speak boldly for Christ on Trumps Celebrity Apprentice Show. Then in Aug 09 I saw Stephen and God being laughed at for his bankruptcy."
Baldwin became a born-again Christian after 9/11, and the site attributes his plummeting income (down by 70%, according to the site) to around this time when he "refused roles with gratuitous sex and violence."
So in order to make Baldwin into a respected member of Hollywood circles, the mastermind behind the campaign wants to restore Baldwin's dwindling bank account, namely because, "Hollywood worships money and without it you are seen as a loser and cannot be an effective influence to this group."
Yep, seriously, that's what the site says.
While Baldwin does not have anything to do with the site directly, his spiritual advisor (now President of Stephen's ministries), Daniel Southern, gave the "Restore" campaign written permission to build the site.
Perhaps the best part of the whole stranger-than-fiction storyline is the video created to help "restore" Baldwin, which plays like some kind of bizarre "SNL" parody. But it's the real deal, folks.
Watch it and tell us what you think. Does it have you rushing to pull out your wallet?

Hahahaha!!! I wouldn't give ONE cent to some Hollywood jackass who squandered millions of dollars. He made his bed.
Are you kidding me? This guy is a douce!
That's got to be the funniest thing I've seen all week.
Psst...dude or dudette who wrote this ad; the people did not restore Job to glory - God did. Your keyboard kinda got a little ahead of your brain there.
There are plenty of Christian actors and actresses in Hollywood who don't squander their money and need to pick the pockets of people who don't make millions of dollars a year -- Adam Baldwin is one, for example. I bet he's glad he's NOT related to Stephen!
to put it nicely-screw him
I just gave ten bucks. Why are you all such haters? Did you give money to that idiot little man we have in office now? Were you stupid enough to vote for that clown half man? Well, my small minded friends, he is now going to try and take your money through taxes and is attempting to ruin your health care system as well. So dont hate on Mr. Baldwin, at least he answers to a higher power other than the dollar and besides, Obama hates America and is a citizen of Kenya.
I am a fairly recent winner of the Powerball jackpot and am considering donating to the Stephen Baldwin charity. But if all it will do is give him money for basically doing nothing then why do it? Now if he was building homes for the homeless or helping orphans then I would gladly give him 38% (what is 38% of 268 million?). Anyway, maybe Baldwin will have better luck with the most recent Powerball winner. A 29 year old trailer trash redneck with two missing front teeth. He has three kids from two different women (he never married them) and he currently has a girlfriend with two teen age sons who he considers his own. So to sum it up. This guy has 5 kids and 3 "women"...I use the term women very loosely because I suspect that any woman who is involved with that guy surely is no lady. Anyway, he has 5 kids and 3 women to support. His money will surely run out rather quickly. If he is going to throw money away on dumb kids and trashy hos he might as well give money to Stephen Baldwin in the hopes of restoring his once classy and respected image. Oh wait. He was never respected. Lol! anyway, you know how to reach me. Take care!

Wacko conservative.
Obama should be more strict and tell the republicans to screw themselves. They made a mess of the country under GWB leadership and now it will take years to clean it up.
Wow...I see another lying liberal troll here. I love the fact that liberals are jobless because they are too lazy to find work. Instead they spend all their time blaming George Bush (just how dumb are liberals if they have to resort to using only initials?) when the person they should be blaming is Bill Clinton. Under Clinton deregulation occurred for the financial markets and housing sector and yet simple minded liberals love to blame Bush. There is no proof that Bush is responsible for the sad state of the economy. In fact he has actually helped it. Do you know that each time the country goes to war that the economy improves. It takes people to build military vehicles and weapons. Sheesh. you idiot liberals are all the same. When Obama was running for president he said that he would end the war and bring the troops home in less than one year after taking office. Lol. Not only has he failed to do both but he has greatly increased spending and also increased the number of troops in the middle east. When Boxer became the Speaker of the House she said that she would cut spending on the war and bring the troops home. She said "I will do what the conservative cowards failed to do." Looks like the liberals are just as cowardly as the conservatives. Man, sometimes I think government would be better run by Hollywood. Look, if Obama does manage to fix the economy it won't be noticeable until 6-8 years from now. Just in time for the Republican President to take all the credit because he was on the job when it happened. But you lame brain liberals would cry foul and would complain and say "but since it takes 6-8 years for the economy to collapse it only makes sense that it would take about 6-8 years for it to improve." And there is your proof of why Clinton and not Bush is to blame for the economic downturn. How do you like them apples?
i'd give him ZERO.
Wow, who let the inmates out of the asylum to post on this thread? They sound like the perfect marks to contribute to the Stephen Baldwin Restoration Fund. Give 'till it hurts, guys! You must restore Christian honor to the Hollywood infidels who are laughing at God for Stephen's bankruptcy (still trying to make some sense of that...). Honestly, the Daily Show couldn't make this stuff up.
Alec and the rest of his family must be so profoundly embarrassed to have to share a bloodline with this moron. Oh well - many prominent families have their Billy Carter or George W. Bush to be ashamed of I guess.
