There's a new argument emerging among supporters of the Ground Zero mosque. Distressed by President Obama's waffling on the issue, they're calling on former President George W. Bush to announce his support for the project, because in this case Bush understands better than Obama the connection between the war on terror and the larger question of America's relationship with Islam. It's an extraordinary change of position for commentators who long argued that Bush had done grievous harm to America's image in the Muslim world and that Obama represented a fresh start for the United States.

Please maintain your silence, W.
Agreed! George, stay away!
Don’t go wobbly, George....
W won’t...I think he was born in the USA!
Surely he will NOT support this travesty.
Here’s where you post the photo of W when he first heard about the attack and the other photo of W at the site with NY fire fighters.
The modern Left turns to true adults only when in dire peril.
“Nevertheless, they are now seeing a different side of the former president.”
BS.. They are trying to use Bush in case it all goes bad so they have him to blame. Again!
Which, of course, it will.
Bush would never support this mosque at this point. Is this someone’s idea of a joke? Or am I missing something here.
Which supporters specifically are asking for GWB? And note to GWB, do not do it!
“I bet he will do it.”

Especially if they can work in an open-borders, Hispanic angle.
Ferck ‘em.
I think we should let them build it where they want, let it fill up for prayers then blow the thing to hell.
Rebuild & repeat until done. This keeps folks working and helps our overall objective on the Global War on Terror (GWOT) not our overseas contingency operations.
DON’T DO IT!!!! IT’S A TRAP!!!!!!!!
Dear President George W. Bush,
Silence is Golden
Loose lips sink ships
Be seen, but not heard
Bush ought to come out and condemn the mosque that would get their panties in a wad.
If this was not so diabolical it would be hilarious!!!!
American Conservatives are by now so used to being betrayed, that we can’t even register the kind of shock and outrage this suggestion would otherwise produce.
