IRS Clears Obama's Church

The Internal Revenue Service has told the United Church of Christ,
Sen. Barack Obama's denomination, that it didn't violate tax laws when
the presidential candidate addressed 10,000 church members in June.

In a letter released by the UCC, the IRS said that the denomination
hadn't engaged in prohibited political activity and retains its
nonprofit status. The UCC disclosed an IRS inquiry into Sen. Obama's
appearance earlier this year. IRS spokeswoman Nancy Mathis declined to
comment.

Charitable groups, including churches, are barred from engaging in political speech if they wish to remain untaxed.

Exactly HOW did Obama's church NOT engage in political speech? Their "reverend" preached about the Democratic race MANY times. Anyone else care to explain this to me? Am I missing something? Or is this just a political favor done for the likely next President?
