SNIPPET: "Washington….The Obama administration, for the second time in two months, interjected itself Monday into an angry local dispute over a proposed Islamic center, warning local officials that opposing the mosque could violate the civil rights of its members and become a federal crime.
The Department of Justice filed court papers Monday in support of construction of a Murfreesboro, Tennessee mosque, saying local Muslims were protected by the First Amendment right to free exercise of religion and disputing opponents claims that Islam is not a valid religion."

“Murfreesboro mosque debate: U.S. Department of Justice says Islam is a religion”
Christopher Collette 12 hrs ago
SNIPPET: “The Islamic Center of Murfreesboro is in the process of trying to build new worship facilities after outgrowing their Murfreesboro location. About 18 months ago, religious leaders there decided to develop land they bought at Veals Road and Bradyville Pike to host their new 10,000-square foot center, which would house worship services, receptions, classrooms, a gym and a pool. Outside, they hope to build sporting areas, a playground, a pavilion and a cemetery on the 15-acre site.”
What reason do the objectors have for protesting this mosque’s construction?
Barack Obama, p. 261, "The Audacity of Hope"
It's a neo-Nazi political forward fire base established for the purposes of sedition, terrorism, and sociological destabilization.
Is that enough of an objection for you?
What Thomas Jefferson thought about Islam:
As Jefferson later reported to Secretary of State John Jay, and to the Congress:
The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.
Interesting.
All those trumped up strawmen that the left dredges up about violations of the mythical separation of church/state and here is a crystal clear violation of the Constitution. Now where are the leftists to protest?
Interesting point. US gov says that Islam is NOT a political system.
That so?

Has the Obama administration (ever) supported a Church?
Ever?
Anywhere? For any reason?
They have also done so with...Scientology. That should be brought up in court.
Uh, doesn't that violate the 1st Amendment for the Feds to play referee with religious groups' attempts to gain zoning approval?
Bring it, Holder.
There is a Muslim fraud in the White House!
I favor flyovers with air bursts of pork rinds!
LOL!
I am so stealing that.
Don’t forget, they like TV clickers too....
