What's good for the goose...

OMG this pisses me off. Two stories on the front page of the LA Times.

The Internal Revenue Service has warned one of Southern California's largest and most liberal churches that it is at risk of losing its tax-exempt status because of an antiwar sermon two days before the 2004 presidential election.

And at some evangelical Christian churches, including the Rock in Roseville, a suburb of Sacramento, pastors made time for a two-minute DVD featuring teenage actresses promoting support for [prop 73, the abortion proposition].


Nevermind that countless churches that preached FOR Bush before the 2004 election. What church was it that was threatening to kick members out if they didn't vote for Bush? Did THEY receive a letter from the IRS?

By all means, apply the law to that first church and remove their tax exempt status if they are entering the political arena. But then it must be applied to ALL churches, no matter which side of the spectrum they're on.
