Guess who they are focusing on???

An African American Reverend who backed John Edwards

On edit they are talking about a Conservative church that worked against gay marriage.

let them open that door and watch us report every church we see used by the GOP. Document every one you see, file a report in as many newspapers you can, and report it to the IRS. Become a "string" reporter, sell the story, give it away, hand it out on the streets. Basically, make alot of noise. It's that rumble that will change things;

4. A solution
attend a church you know is using the pulpit to champion a political agenda, kinda become part of it for a bit then file charges against the church for mis-managing funds. Church donations are for church related activities and not political agendas. These fundie churches are making mistakes every Sunday and we can catch them. Once charges are filed report them to the IRS.

ps. It's best to do this with like-minded individuals so you can document any donations you may make, this way you have a case that YOUR donations have been mismanaged.
