But - anytime you take out retirement money - whether it was pre or post tax you are penalized for early withdrawl.
I'm really surprised that they didn't automatically tell you that. It's pretty standard.

Actually I'm not penalized because I used the entire amount withdrawn for the down payment on a house (first-time homebuyer - which is one of a number of reasons for early withdrawal without penalty). I just need to find time during the day to contact the company who held my Roth to see when they will be sending an adjusted 1099 as I am not supposed to pay taxes o n that money again. . . . . .
