If this is true, this is one of the most egregious cases yet of the Obama administration using its power to reward political friends and punish perceived enemies (with taxpayer funds, no less!).  It is an object lesson in the danger of a too-powerful government: Those with friends on the "inside" profit and those on the "outside" suffer.
