During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing today, Rep. Aaron Schock, R-Ill., grilled outgoing IRS commissioner Steven Miller about the IRS targeting a pro-life group in Iowa.
“Their question, specifically asked from the IRS to the Coalition for Life of Iowa: ‘Please detail the content of the members of your organization’s prayers,’” Schock declared.
“Would that be an inappropriate question to a 501 c3 applicant?” asked Schock. “The content of one’s prayers?”
“It pains me to say I can’t speak to that one either,” Miller replied.
After Schock pressed him further, Miller explained that although he couldn’t comment on the specific case, it would “surprise him” if that question was asked.
The report comes from the Thomas More Society, a national public interest law firm for religious liberty.
Any questions about this Administration’s attacks on nearly every right secured under the Bill of Rights and the Declaration and Constitution?

You got a problem with that, Mr. T-Man?
Will they be asking the same of the 501(c)(3) CAIR?
this Steve Miller person is as slimy a piece of shit government employee as you could ever hope to meet
This is Soviet. Not resembles, not rhetorically. This is Soviet.

Its easy to see
But its not that I don’t care so
Cause I hear it all the time
But they never let you know
On the TV and the radio
Or the papers of the lamestream media, for that matter.
If my prayers asked God to damn America, would that get my tax exempt status approved faster?
Only if you also asked St. Francis’s intercession to bring your chickens home to roost.
MLK version: care about the content of their character, not the color of their skin.
BHO version: care about the color of their skin and the content of their prayers.
There’s an infolding affirmative action for the protection of the affirmatively acted upon to consider as well in the BHO version.
