11. Nonsense should not be applied equally.

It should be punished equally, I would agree. The law is specific. Karl Rove's America Crossroads, the big elephant in the room that people do not mention, did not qualify as a "social welfare" group. It was obviously political- as were some liberal groups, such as Harry Reid's.

The law is the law. A small fact is that not one conservative group was "denied" their tax exempt status. They were delayed but not denied. They should have been targeted and they should have been denied.
