Go ahead: write tomorrow’s headlines tonight:
(Reuters) – President Barack Obama on Friday backed construction of a proposed mosque and Muslim cultural center near the site of the September 11, 2001, attacks in New York — a project opposed by U.S. conservatives and many New Yorkers.
“As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country,” Obama said to applause at an event attended by diplomats from Islamic countries and members of the U.S. Muslim community.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't.
And that's a problem for the muzzie in chief, because we're not even 2 years into this debacle, and while hes not looting the treasury or nationalizing industries or vacationing, hes busy siding with Americas enemies.
I’m sure Axewlgreasy had the talking points in the media’s hands before Barry the bastard read his speech strongly endorsing the islamomurderers’ plans.

A number of commentators said that the builders planned various construction milestones, such as groundbreaking and the start of construction, to coincide with anniversaries of the September 11 attacks

Incredibly, ground-breaking for the Ground Zero mosque is scheduled for Sept. 11 — the anniversary of 9/11. Does it take much imagination to figure out how al-Jazeera and the militant Muslim world will greet that occurrence?

From ‘The Audacity Of Hope, “I WILL STAND WITH THEM (MUSLIMS) SHOULD THE POLITICAL WINDS OF WAR SHIFT IN AN UGLY DIRECTION..”
Gear up.....
This was a great speech I think he should do it from mecca next ^__^
you must be referring to David Assholrod?
As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country. That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances.
IN LOWER MANHATTAN!
WEASEL WORDS.
FUBO!
Obama sees himself as a wise moral leader, but a wise president would completely stay out of this issue. Once again, Obama goes for the ‘teachable moment’ and divides the country.
It was never about religion until Muslim fanatics declared holy war (jihad) on the US.
What’s there to spin for the MSM...I mean geez, the vast majority of it backs the GZ mosque, as well....
You know Obama will order that the building site to be under Federal protection, SWAT, FBI, maybe a few pieces of heavy hardware like a chain gun, heat rays for crowd control.
I honestly pray that thousands if not many times more blockade the building site.
Could anyone ever possibly have thought a President would threaten Americans with harm if they object to a monument being erected by an enemy that successful killed thousands?
This is an open act of treason.
We got hit in 2001 and the borders have been open ever since.
Zawahiri must be lolzing.
Can anyone explain how freedom of religion means that we have to allow them to build a mosque right there at Ground Zero?
That sure would be interesting if he were allowed in Mecca
Nope. There’s no connection between the two.
