Ask EVERY democratic candidate, ‘Do you support public funding for the Ground Zero mosque. If no, what have you done to stop it?’

How do people who aren’t Devil worshipers go along with this? How can they just sit there “just doing their job” and accept this?

This is an invitation to a permanent tension, with New York City becoming more like Belfast.
