OC, It is not a fact that more liberal leaning than conservative leaning groups get tax free status. I would suggest you cross check your sources but I suspect you prefer not to do that. I doubt you would believe Pro Publica studies as MH cited or another good source Martin Sullivan at Tax Analysts or any other data from reliable sources because it's a contradiction from what your gut feelings tell you.

Nov 8, 2010, Rep Darrell Issa said in an interview he wanted each of his 7 subcommittees to hold one or two hearings each week. "I want seven hearings a week, times 40 weeks", a huge increase in hearings from the 110th Congress,seeing the his oversight committee's role to "measure failures". Deja vu from when scandal hunter Dan Burton was shooting melons to "prove" Hilary Clinton had Vince Foster murdered. Issa, with a past tainted with grand theft auto and arson incidents, seems to being trying to outdo Burton convening witchhunt hearings. Bringing to attention that groups no matter how they lean that are actually doing little or no "social welfare" work to get tax exempt status while hiding their donor identities and contributions is a good thing but that wasn't Issa's goal in holding IRS hearings at all.

I don't know why the WH would bother to politically target only small conservative leaning groups and not the gigantic money groups such as CrossroadsGPS, American Action Network, etc. That doesn't make a lick of sense.
