The Inspector General released a report this week and found that 63% of scrutinized IRS applications were withdrawn or were still unresolved.

The Obama IRS refused to grant tax exempt status to Christian and pro-life groups on behalf of the abortion group Planned Parenthood.
In one case, the IRS withheld approval of an application for tax exempt status for Coalition for Life of Iowa.

Is there a form I have to fill out?
Do I have to go buy a prayer rug or something?
Barbecue a goat?
Behead a Christian?
What, exactly?
Someone needs to look at these cases as Federal Civil Rights crimes.
I don’t care about guessing what Obama wants. He needs to be sued for these egregious crimes.
Of course. HE HATES CHRISTIANS and loves his co religionists.
COEXIST
