IRS Surrenders: Time For Churches to Get ‘Political’

In case you haven’t noticed, Planned Parenthood and other Lefty “non-profits” have been openly supporting democrat candidates for generations.

In case you haven't noticed, Planned Parenthood - as well as a bunch of groups on the left and right - openly endorse candidates using their PAC, not their 501(c)(3) organization.

Christmas wish list for the Romney administration.

9.# Roll back or repeal any if not all over bearing federal regulations that hurt businesses perform in the new economy.

The reason why I say " NEW ECONOMY " is it will hopefully be a new day after tomorrow.

Maybe ?

Romney can say today at one of the Rallies : " ONE MORE DAY WHEN WE FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORM OUR OVER BURDENED SICKLY ECONOMY INTO A NEW HEALTHY ECONOMY WHERE AMERICAN LIVES WILL BE FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORMED FOR THE BETTER HERE IN AMERICA " ......

Exactly what Clinton did.

Amen Westbrook. Was a youngin when this came down the road. Remember the discussions which ensued in the church was in. Remember the meetings. Remember the contacts with other church pastors. As I said I was a youngin. I am not and have never been a Pastor. Remembered most from those days the do we take a stand speaches or do we turn the other cheek. The other cheek was decided to be turned. I was heartbroken, knew we were in for a rough ride after that day. Have spoken a few times on this here at this forum of Free Republic. Am overjoyed once again and have noticed a new day, a day where the Constitution and the Church can once more live side by side in the pulpit. With God's Help, America will be Free once more in the pulpit. Amen. Amen.

Yep. They are political appointees and they serve at the pleasure of the President.

I have no doubt that they'll start shredding everything from lunch-lists to hard drives starting first thing on Wednesday morning, so we may never know the extent of illegality and corruption, but at least they'll be out of "public service" for a while.

He also needs to fire the DNI, and to tell David Petraeus that based on his statements concerning Benghazi on September 14th, that he is either incompetent or complicit in the cover-up, but that either way he expects his resignation effective immediately.

At our Mega-Church yesterday we had an hour long sermon to vote for Romney (and other Christians). The Church is about 45% black and it was great even the blacks were clapping.

One black with an ZERO button on his shirt said to his wife that they need to find a better church. I felt like telling him to go to Rev Wrong's church in Chicago!

May The Bear be suggested, if he can and will, for that post?

[Guardian Sebastian]

Could this be so the hate speech is not restricted in the mosques? Don't get me wrong I think that the church should be free to say what they believe, but sometimes I wonder if these things that happen aren't for other reasons. Call me skeptical.

It brings to mind the amendment on the last election ballot in Missouri that make it illegal to restrict the practice of one’s religion at school. The Christians may benefit but it would probably never have happened if it wasn't for the Muslims.

Also add the groin groping TSA. The biggest p.i.t.a. for travelers yet. I don’t feel one bit safer with those thieving perverts touching my junk and then touching my other junk.

Keeping all this in mind, something I’ve long expected has finally occurred. A little over a week ago, the IRS ran up the white flag. That bureaucratic bully we all love to hate announced that, for the indefinite future, it is “holding any potential church audits in abeyance,” for violating its arbitrary “no politicking” rule.

The Rats didn't want the political top blown off of Rat church politicking.

[HiTech RedNeck]

groin gropers and skin scanners, who can’t even read their own signs.

Don’t celebrate yet... New information:

Has The IRS Given Up On Auditing Churches?
http://blog.speakupmovement.org/church/churches-and-politics/has-the-irs-given-up-on-auditing-churches/

“...Since that time, the IRS has not been auditing any churches to the best of our knowledge. It has proposed new regulations to designate a higher official in the ranks of the IRS to approve all church audits but it has never finalized those regulations. No one really knows what the delay is, but we believe that the IRS will finalize its regulations at some point and will once again begin auditing churches.”
