If she wanted to be a whistle blower, then blow the whistle and take the consequences. And if she thought something was wrong it was her duty to change the way things were being done.

The other thing wrong with this whole thing is, everyone applying for this unethical, immoral tax exempt status, should have been queried. And the donors names should be made known. There is everything wrong with this 501(c)(4).

The other thing wrong with this is, at what rate were the supposed conservative groups being investigated as to the number of supposed liberal groups? That has not come out as far as I have seen, and would guess when is does, the numbers will be the same.
