Rep. Lynn Woolsey, D-Calif., has said it’s high time the IRS took a hard look at folks whose deeply held religious beliefs prompt them to act in ways detrimental to the national interest.
Our thought at first blush: Good, at last a reflexive liberal who understands the animus behind Maj. Nidal Hasan’s grisly acts of last Thursday.
We should have known better. Ms. Woolsey was not referring to the massacre at Fort Hood, but rather to what she deems the undue influence exerted by the
U.S. Catholic bishops in the crafting of the Stupak anti-abortion amendment to the health care bill. Now, it seems, she wants the IRS to at least consider examining whether the clergy did anything that might endanger the Church’s tax-exempt status.
That thought of ours: It was good while it lasted.
