in response to FactsMatter:  Wrong. It was a factual statement.
Read the actual law regarding 501s. It says a group that is
primarily political does not qualify for tax exempt status. Only
extremely stupid people really believe the Teabaggers are not a
political group.  If they did not qualify, why were they granted
tax exempt status? You can't answer that, your talking points
don't address that fact. While you are at it, justify why, if in
your view political groups are not allowed 501 status, does
Media Matter's hold that status? Not only do they hold that
status, while trying to destroy the right and any media with the
Conservative point of view, they didn't have to jump through the
hoops that TEA Party groups had to. That really brings us back
to the reality of the situation. It is not whether or not they
deserved 501 status, it is the UNFAIR things they had to do to
gain the status. LET ME REPEAT THAT FOR YOU FACTSDONTMATTER.
THEY WERE TREATE
