The great Bill Moyers story almost goes back to the beginning of his public career. After being one of the founding members of John F. Kennedy's Peace Corps, he served Lyndon Johnson -- the Kennedy successor so tragically necessary -- as both senior White House assistant and, eventually, press secretary.

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Nov. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Reverend Robert Jeffress, a Dallas pastor who endorsed Gov. Rick Perry, made waves when he called Mormonism a "cult" on Oct. 7, 2011. The IRS has been asked to investigate whether Jeffress endangered the tax-exempt status of his church just by endorsing the Texas Republican.
While U.S. churches are protected under federal income and property tax exemptions, a 1954 law prohibits churches from "directly or indirectly participating in, or intervening in, any political campaign." The IRS used this law to revoke the tax-exempt status of a church that in 1992 ran an advertisement criticizing Bill Clinton's views. And now the IRS is being asked to review whether Jeffress's church violated the same law.
