An Open Letter To Barack Obama

by Jeffrey Lord - March 4th, 2008 - The American Spectator

Our common denomination, the United Church of Christ, has a suddenly serious legal and financial problem with the Internal Revenue Service. You, personally, are the cause of this problem. Candidly? I think you owe it to those of us who are your fellow congregants to help repair the damage that you have done.

Barack Obama talks a great deal about judgement. However he also keeps acknowledging that he has made boneheaded mistakes. This letter details a serious one that has left his church with a million dollar legal bill over his clear violation of IRS rules about politicking from the pulpit. It is obnoxious enough that he does it. It is even worse that he does it with such sanctimonious arrogance. As suggested in this letter, maybe "bonehead" should become his nickname.
