"Exams conducted by the IRS find that about 75 percent of the churches, charities and other civic groups suspected of having violated restraints on political activity in the 2004 election really did so."

"the IRS is moving to revoke the tax-exempt status of three organizations"

"Among the groups being investigated is Jerry Falwell Ministries for endorsing President Bush and All Saints Church in California for criticizing the war in Iraq."

I really have no idea what you are talking about. I'm simply typing in plain text as I do on any other site. It may be an issue with my browser or something.
