Horowitz and Hypocrisy, Once Again

Today, David Horowitz's Frontpagemag.com runs an article proclaiming that the Council on Islamic-American Relations (CAIR) has articles on its website supporting Barack Obama: "statements showing favoritism towards a particular candidate, including one denouncing that candidate’s opponent, flies in the face of the 501(c)(3) rules." It's very interesting, though, that this article appears on Horowitz's site, which is part of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that routinely runs articles attacking Barack Obama and opposing Democrats of all kinds. Instead of urging politicized investigations of advocacy groups other than itself, perhaps Horowitz's group should support a system based on freedom, where organizations liberal or conservative are not persecuted for expressing views about politics.
