CATHOLIC SCHOLAR: IRS ASKED WHO PAID ME TO WRITE ANTI-OBAMA ARTICLES

Anne Hendershott, an eloquent opponent of the Obama administration, states that she has reason to believe she was targeted by the IRS for an audit following publications that were critical of President Obama and Catholics who supported him.



Aleteia, a Catholic publication, reports that Hendershott, a Catholic scholar, sociology professor at Franciscan University at Steubenville, Ohio, and columnist for the Wall St. Journal, may have been harassed by the IRS for specifically opposing the policies of the Obama administration.

“I have no proof of it being a political audit,” Hendershott said. “Only the curious circumstance surrounding it. My husband and I have been married for 39 years and never have been audited before. It was odd that [the agent] only wanted to talk with me--although he said I could bring our tax accountant... All of the questions focused on who was paying me for the articles.”

Hendershott’s 2010 audit took place in the New Haven, Connecticut IRS office. She said the IRS agent was “very inquisitive” and that she had the impression “that he was looking for a reason that I was writing for money, where, you know, Catholics tend not to do that."

"He kept asking me who was paying me: ‘Who paid you to write this one?’ and ‘What did you get paid for that?’” she claimed.

First they came for the Tea Party; then they came for the Catholics; then they came for the gun owners. Who’s next?

It's ANY ONE who is pro-American - that what 'his change' was all about.

Kind of sad really, my buddies and I no longer go to the range just to have fun, ammo scarcity and prices when you can get it.
We used to go once or twice a month, mostly about bragging rights of who was the best shot, LOL.
We haven't gotten together in over 2 months, ain't nobody wasting ammo.
