Was IRS Surprise Audit of Billy Graham Coincidence?

Remember last year before the presidential elections Billy Graham and his Evangelical group sponsored a prominent newspaper ad promoting both Biblical principles and marriage? Interestingly, shortly after these ads were published, the Billy Graham Association received notice they would be subject to an immediate audit by the Internal Revenue Service.

Today, following the scandalous news that the IRS did indeed target organizations who may have been outspoken during the election, Reverend Franklin Graham penned a letter to President Obama.

Read his letter and decide. Was it coincidence or was the IRS specifically targeting this well respected, but outspoken Christian group?
