how many tea party groups were denied tax exempt status

By the IRS in the faux scandal earlier this year?

Thanks

1. I know that the only group stripped of 501 (c) 4 status

was a liberal group. Not sure what the denial rates are.

2. If I remember correctly it was a big fat ZERO

that is what made all the hearings such a load of crap. It took a little bit for them to get their status but they got them, the only one legitimately denied was a progressive group.

4. yeah, I was trying to find something via Google

but, my google fu isn't always good.
