Friends of Abe has attempted to stay under the radar and is fiercely determined to protect the identity of its 1,500 members, The New York Times reports. But now the group has come under the scrutiny of the IRS after the federal agency requested information about its meetings with politicians including 2012 vice presidential candidate Rep. Paul Ryan, former Michigan Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, and 2012 presidential hopeful Hermain Cain, according to anonymous sources who have inside knowledge of the probe.

Hollywood Conservatives (Yes, They Do Exist!)

Written on Monday, April 25, 2011 by Ann-Marie Murrell

The newest closet for celebrities to come out of is definitely Conservatism. Just like in the McCarthy days, once you’ve been labeled a Conservative (or Lord forbid, a Christian) you are not only ridiculed but also somewhat blacklisted in Hollywood.

But slowly, many celebrities are coming out of that closet and not only declaring their love for America, but also their Conservative-based values. I’m personally attending a Hollywood Congress of Republicans meeting in which Scott Baio is the guest speaker. Yep, Chachi himself is a hard-core Republican who apparently spends lots of time Twittering anti-Obamaisms.

There’s even an underground group of Conservatives led and organized by actor Gary Sinise called “Friends of Abe” (after Abraham Lincoln). They quietly meet in restaurants and private homes—much like Tea Party groups, only with really famous attendees. They have to keep their meetings on the down-low for fear of retaliation from Hollywood liberals, so I imagine they’re more like “Conservatives Anonymous” than anything else.
