The Internal Revenue Service has cleared the United Church of Christ of accusations that it violated its tax exempt status by hosting Barack Obamas A Politics of Conscience. The IRSs letter to the United Church of Christ cites the same points that we did: even though Barack Obamas A Politics of Conscience contained campaign-related content, the UCC did everything possible to prevent the Obama campaign from misusing its resources for electioneering. It would therefore be hardly fair to hold the United Church of Christ accountable for Barack Obamas decision to break his word to his own church by giving a speech that described what he will do if he is elected President, as shown by the transcript of A Politics of Conscience...
Obamas conduct reminds us of a caller to a talk radio show who, after indicating his understanding of Federal Communication Commission rules that ban profanity, spews a long series of F-bombs once he is on the air, thus getting the radio station into trouble. There are enough callers whose lack of character and maturity makes this a real possibility that there is a delay of several seconds between the time a person speaks and when the words are broadcast, and this allows the radio station to cut the sound if the F word or similar profanity is present. The United Church of Christ obviously felt that similar conduct from a United States Senator would be so inconcievable that there were no provisions for cutting Obamas microphone, and the UCC was wrong. Obama did the equivalent of F-bombing his own church, thus causing its officers considerable stress and worry about what the IRS would do as a result. The IRS apparently reached the same conclusion:

Obama then sat down and wrote (thus showing premeditation and malice aforethought) "A Politics of Conscience," which contained extensive campaign-related content in contravention of the rules to which he had agreed. He then delivered this campaign speech and got the United Church of Christ into trouble with the IRS.
Obama's conduct can therefore be compared not merely to someone who calls a talk show, but who appears on it as an invited speaker, and who indicates his understanding of FCC regulsations that prohibit on-the-air profanity. Once the microphone is in his hand, though, he launches into a tirade that includes many of the prohibited words, thus getting the radio station into trouble. The key concept is a deliberate and willful betrayal of another person's or organization's trust, thus demonstrating a total lack of fitness to be trusted with the most important office in the world.

After listening to Jeremiah Wright for 20 years, campaigning for Obama from the pulpit and slamming white men, Hillary!, and AmeriKKKa, how was Obama supposed to know what it was appropriate to say and what wasn’t?
Unless the IRS steps in and revokes this church’s tax exempt status, what exactly is the point of this assessment?
Will the IRS step in and revoke the tax exempt status of a black church, Barry Hussein’s at that? Sure. Just as soon as I break that 3 minute mile on my 57th birthday this December.
Oh please... What at all did the UCC do to prevent Obama from using the occasion to campaign?

Inconceivable that a shiftless politician running for president would talk politics? I do not think that word means what the IRS seems to think that word means.
