Palin:Koran Burning Is Insensitive, Unnecessary; Pastor Jones, Please Stand Down
Facebook ^ | 9/8/10 | Sarah Palin

Posted on 9/8/2010, 9:42:45 PM by GQuagmire

Book burning is antithetical to American ideals. People have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to, but doing so is insensitive and an unnecessary provocation – much like building a mosque at Ground Zero.

At least she’s consistent on both the 9/11 victory mosque and this.

Oh, boy.

Sarah is about to catch hell from a few freepers.

(I support what she says by the way)

Baloney. The Muslims are as bad as having the Aztecs build a temple on the Mall and sacrifice people to the God of the Harvest.
The attack on 911 was the same thing...a human sacrifice to Alla>

I agree, too. Frankly, I doubt the guy intends to burn the Koran. I think he’s just saying he will for exactly the effect he got. (Or if he does, he is a bit screwy). Moderate people like Sarah Palin will ask him not to. The whack jobs on the left and in the mosques will threaten him. Point made.

Burning the books is not nearly as bad as stealing more from oil companies for public school teachers and feminist social programs.

It will be a glorious day when the usurper is pushed aside and President Palin takes the Oath of Office. I’ll bet she will even get it right on her first try. As for the liberals, I have no doubt that many will burn the American flag in protest over the (hopefully lethal) blow to socialism delivered on that day.

Burning the Koran is simply making propaganda for our enemies. And by our enemies, I mean the liberal media who’ve blown this story so far out of proportion as a means of smearing opponents of the Ground Zero mosque and other Islamist provocations with accusations of rabid bigotry. If Pastor Jones, or whatever his name is, did not already exist, the liberals would have to invent him (which is pretty much what they’ve done anyway).

Notice how the left avidly supports the mosk and fiercely condemns the proposed book burning? Shows whose side they are on.

Who really cares. People can have an opinion on whether or not someone should do this. I wouldn’t burn one, I don’t care if he does it or not, it’s protected political speech in the US and I get what he’s trying to say. He wouldn’t be in danger from Christians if he burned Bibles or from Americans if he burned American flags. I worry that he will be in danger from Muslims if he burns Korans. That’s really the salient point here, and the real concern. And reason enough for us to think long and hard about the real issue. But no one wants to talk about that.

We don’t have to burn Korans....I remember reading Mein Kampf............the fact that that book exist will educate more people than it will ever convert.

That’s not what she was saying when they were defacing the BVM and the Crucifix at that Brooklyn museum.

As usual, Gov. Palin is right. Book burning is always wrong, no matter how revolting the book may be. If you condone the burning of your enemies books, you ar eenabling him to burn the books you believe in.

This idiot pastor is enabling the radical Islamists to condemn Christianity and Judaism and burn our bibles.

How many Americans have to die before we decide Islam and the Koran are evil? I guess not enough have died. In the meantime Islamification of this country proceeds apace.

Sarah, there are times to STFU....this is one of those times.

If people can put a Crucifix in urine, then people can also burn the koran.

No Effing Double Standards!

Explain why it is "always" wrong"?

Would it have been wrong for Jews to burn Mein Kampf during WW2?

WTF is wrong with this country?
