Pulpit Freedom Sunday

Strategists at the Alliance Defense Fund, an outfit founded by TV and radio preachers, are yet again urging pastors to openly violate federal law by endorsing or opposing candidates from tax-exempt pulpits. They call this stunt “Pulpit Freedom Sunday.”
Read about it here

I would hope that most Americans would get up and walk out of church if their priest, pastor, minister, etc. started spewing political endorsements. If you witness such an activity I urge you to do so and also report this person to the IRS.

Setting aside the irrelevance of the anonymous comment to the posted topic, and unlike Mitt Romney I have nothing to hide. Could the IRS find something amiss in my tax returns? Probably, due to errors that would net them a few additional pennies or possibly they would owe me a refund. they would certainly not uncover any blatant disregard for the law as is the case of these preachers telling their congregations how to vote.

Still not sure what relevance that my taxes have on the original post. These preachers are breaking the law in a blatant fashion and face no penalty. Everyone reading this should be upset, as this is one of the major contributors to the polarization that our country is now experiencing, which is standing in the way of progress.

By the way, I just realized that I did not claim the sales tax for a car that I purchased lat year. 1040X, here I come!

SCOtt. I'm sure you didn't claim everything, maybe the irs will see you 1040 And maybe they too will want to make sure your ducks are in line! ;p I don't think you have them in line so before you start to talk about anyone think before you speak doll!

Bird husbandry has created excessively high populations ranging from 10 to 20 birds per hectare, as opposed to a natural density of 0.1 birds per hectare.

They have put in a new landing so we spent a couple hours out on the lake just paddling around - no particular trail that we followed, though, because there was just too much to see! The birds are spectacular when you're there at the right time (saw lots of egrets this past trip, last time there were bald eagles and a whole bunch of different wading birds). So fuck you - I'm not appearing in your crappy book.
If they don't get run over or killed by the larger stray dogs, they usually end up in the shelter in the end, unless they are lucky enough to get into a rescue..
