Obama undaunted by fallout from mosque remarks

ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE — President Barack Obama isn't worried about the furor unleashed by his comments on a planned mosque near Ground Zero, a spokesman said Tuesday.

He's also not dismayed that the Senate's top Democrat, Majority Leader Harry Reid, now opposes the idea, deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton said.

"This is an issue people are going to come to with strongly held convictions," Burton told reporters aboard Air Force One, as Obama flew to an appearance in Seattle. "He's happy our thriving democracy is continuing to produce vigorous debate."

Even the name “Park51” is a reference to this practice.

Tell me more; I haven't seen this.

Park51 is the name of the proposed ground zero mosque.

Or did you know that and wonder why they chose that name?

Obama is happy he has caused friction.

He would be even happier if a civil war started.

Undaunted?

I don't think so!!!

His Rasmussen poll rating fell 2 more points after he blithered and blathered about it.

Thats "daunted."

I was corn-fused.

It’s actually the former name “Cordoba project” that was such a reference:

“The Cordoba Mosque was the third largest mosque complex in the world ... built on the site of a former Christian church, to commemorate the Muslim conquest of Spain. This perpetuated a cultural Muslim practice of building mosques on the sites of historic conquests.”

Park51 evidently has some gematria going on with it that indicates a victory mosque. Inquiring minds want to know.

*He's happy our thriving democracy is continuing to produce vigorous debate.*

He's happy our thriving democracy is rapidly becoming a communist totalitarian dictatorship on it's way to becoming an Islamic state ruled by sharia law and he would like to continuing to produce stifle vigorous debate through means of controlling radio, the Internet and making another stab at the Stasi-esque something 'fishy' emails .

There, fixed it.

They could build the mosque at ground zero and the other zero could cut the ribbon and there’d still be 40% or more supporting this muslim.

“He’s [Obama] happy our thriving democracy is continuing to produce vigorous debate.”

The ‘bama’s people have an extraordinary knack for packing more lies into fewer words than I ever thought was humanly possible.

What do they mean UNDAUNTED?? Didn't he take them back not 24 hrs. after he made them?

Apparently that's being "undaunted" to the AP. And Mika Brzezinski.

Now I wonder why opposition to this is not considered racist? I guess it only counts if you are opposed to a strictly liberal or progressive position...

I pray a reporter will ask Gibbs “What did the president have for lunch today?” I promise he’d stutter like never before trying to come up with an answer. The he’d say “He skipped breakfast this morning and will skip all meals during ramadan. He’s doing this to show respect to the muslims of this nation.”

Ah, yes, thank you for the clarification.

The Hagia Sophia in Constantinople, the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, and the Cordoba Mosque in Spain—are all testament to Islam’s “in-your-face” doctrine of conquest.

The fact the Ground Zero Mosque is named the “Cordoba Project” simply bears this out.
