Lynn, the enemy within.
The KGB did the same thing by monitoring the Orthodox Church. A democrat win could usher in all sorts of nastiness.
In that case, I expect IRS investigations of every single damn AME and black Baptist church that Kerry, Edwards, and their Democratic race pimp friends speak in this summer and fall. Every last one of them.
But we know that won't happen. It's only OK for black churches to be used for political benefit, and maybe some white liberal denominations if done quietly...never conservative denominations like the Southern Baptists.
Racist bastards.
Sorry. I haven't had enough caffeine yet to be posting here.

RATS openingly campaign in liberal (especially black) churches all the time. They even film it and have it on TV.

Voters interviewed Tuesday said they felt comfortable backing someone who grew up in the mill towns of the Carolinas. Edwards' family moved to North Carolina when he was a young boy.
"He's from this area, and I think he understands the South and the issues of the South," said Roy Chandler, a 71-year white Democrat who runs several retail businesses in Orangeburg.
Edwards built a formidable campaign organization that sent thousands of volunteers knocking on doors. He campaigned in South Carolina for more than a year, and his aides convinced more 100 ministers of black churches to endorse him from the pulpit on Sunday.

Hypocrites at best. Where was the outrage when Clintoon and Bore campaigned in the AME and Buddist churches in Los Angeles? How about the "Reverand" Jesse and his campaigning in the various churches?
One of these days, the Republicans have to take off the gloves and hit back hard.
In a world where right were right and wrong wrong, the law that includes 501(c)(3) tax exemption status would be declared a violation of the 1st Amendment, because it prohibits the free exercise of religion.
In this world, however, this pastor's church could be padlocked if he won't supplicate himself to his national master.
I don't know why they just don't call it "the Separation of God And Man" because that what it boils down to.
Has God struck Barry Lynn dead yet?
I am waiting for Barry Lynn to file a complaint against Je$$e Jackson and other liberal non-profit groups.
Churches link poverty, politics

Time to fight back against this demon spawn of hell ~ tie him up in litigation with federal bureaucrats for an eternity.
I can assist someone one who wishes to nail Americans-United.... nonprofit mailing authorization as well.
Unbelievable! It appears Mr. Lynn is trying to use the government to impose HIS religion on the rest of the country.

The statutes and judge-made "laws" to the contrary, are all un-Constitutional.
The First Amendment did not give, nor decree, nor grant, nor delegate any powers or rights.
The First Amendment bars government from prosecuting and from persecuting free speech and our free press.
There is no Constitutional authority for the government to decide what is and what is not the scope of speech in, or from, the church. The scope was, and is, entirely up to the people and God.
That is a source of irritation for socialists, and therefore that is a target for socialists, because it is outside the bounds of government when we live with a limited government; and so, they propose un-limiting government, in order to control and even destroy our freedoms.
If the First Amendment's affirmation of free speech protection applies to anything and anyone, it is a firewall designed to keep goverment out of the church business, but it is not a wall keeping the church out of speaking about government business.
The entire Bill of Rights is about limitations of the federal government; the Bill is a firewall holding back that government from infringing upon the rights of the people and the rights of the States. None of the Bill of Rights bars the people from asserting our authority over government.
