Even after 40 years in the news business, you can sometimes be just plain stunned. So it was this morning.

Here's my take on Abongo "Roy" Obama. He is the President's half-brother. It took one month for the foundation which he runs to receive tax exempt status. And, that status was made retroactive so that the years when "Roy" was soliciting money, would be covered so he, and the president would be immune. Don't worry, "Roy" the IRS has got your back. My thanks to the Daily Caller for this story.

Oh what a contrast with Tea Party people: Democrats branded them "racists" and when they applied for tax exempt status, they were intimidated by the IRS, and information about them was leaked to President Obama's supporters! How could this happen!

Hold on...I will answer the question, but first, a little more about "Roy." Reportedly, he has twelve wives, back in Kenya. He was raising money to build a madrassa, and a house for an imam. And the name of the charity he runs? The Barack H. Obama Foundation. He used the President's name to get an extraordinarily prompt tax break, and an un-heard of retro-active ruling.

So what is going on here? Flagrant abuse of America's fundamental principles. The dragging of America down, to third world behavior. And frankly, gross interference with a Presidential election.

And that is why despite 40 years in news, I can still be stunned by what we have come to.
