They can build it.

We can blow it.

Repeat as necessary.

“Jews have the same dietary law and New york is at least a third Jewish. They might be more offended by the anti religious barbecue than the Muslims.”

Not in my experience. I know a few Jews, and they don’t act like pork is radioactive. Some have even eaten bacon, *gasp*.

muslims are irrational, 8th century people in a modern world. The muzzies would get totally “outraged” over close proximity of a pork bbq, because their imam told them they should.

Hey you self loathing Jews in NYC. Why not vote to build Hitler monuments in front of every Temple in the City? What's the difference?

Schumer, Bloomberg can you here me?

Isn't there a city in Michigan that has a mosque that transmits that awful call to prayer five times a day?

Here in Texas, the Fort Hood shooter/terrorist can't find a bank that will cash his paychecks.

Glad I live in Texas.

Sometimes you have to entice curiosity in different ways.

Did I get the commission right? Were the people in my link above the ones responsible?

How can the site of the mosque itself become so “unholy” that they cannot build there?

“Heck, I bet the mayor will be there for the ribbon cutting ceremony. Lohan will be back in the headlines tomorrow and America will go back to sleep. This makes me sick.”

You are spot on.

It’s very difficult to watch the fall of America.

Prediction: That building will not last too long. An “incident” will take place to be rid of that building.

For once I can the need for eminent domain. The area should be a national historic site.

The commission members need to be identified, their addresses made public, and daily demonstrations held in their front yards, for starters.

Regards the building, who is going to build it? Where they getting the stuff to build it with?

Christopher Moore, a member of the commission, said the vote was not a matter of religion, though he argued that the building could not be divorced from the memory of the Sept. 11 attacks.

“I wish someone would destroy it but when it’s all said and done I believe nothing will be done. The city will pay extra to have it guarded, anyone causing problems will be arrested for hate crimes all in the name of diversity.”

...sadly, I expect that you’re right....but ....this must be used as inflamatory rhetoric this Fall by the Right...it MUST be blamed on the Democrats for allowing this outrage...we MUST pin the blame on them starting with Obama.

Fire with fire. I like it. Especially since there’s absolutely nothing that can be done in the legal arena to prevent them from exercising their right to build on their own property. They use our laws and freedoms against us, and our only effective response is to be as creative in legally interfering with their plan as we can.
