Actually, I believe it is named after Cordoba because that was the first foothold the Moors(Muslims) won in Spain; thus the Cordoba in NYC is the symbol of the Muslims first victory in their war to conquer the US. THAT reason is why they should not be allowed to gloat and recruit with a Muslim victory monument at Ground Zero.

You may be more right on the history than I am. Cordoba is in southern Spain, about 100 miles NNE of Gibraltar. A quick web glance shows that Cordoba was a major Muslim metropolis for hundreds of years, and the site of a Great Mosque. Maybe that's the motive--once something is in the Dar-al-Islam, its never supposed to leave. I agree on the gloat motive.

True. But look at the cheesy, faux wood dash in my previous post with “Corinthian leather.”

Let me put it differently. What mattered to me was Ricardo’s pronunciation of “Corinthian leather.” I didn’t expect quality, I just enjoyed the commercial.

This is why I hope she doesn’t run for President - if she did, she’d have to tone that kind of stuff down.

Whut????

It has nothing to do with the car. “PearsBeforeSwine” was correct in #4. It has to do with Cordoba, Spain. To a muslim it is a battle cry, just as “Remember the Alamo” or “Remember Pearl Harbor” is to an American. The building of that mosque, if it happens, will be a “victory lap” commemorating 9-11.

All bad. Making the comments at a Muslim Feast at the White House after dissing Boy Scouts and canceling the National Day of Prayer.

Odumba really, really stepped in it this time and it's not going to go away.

Lighten up. We know it has nothing to do with the car. It was a play on words.

“We all know that they have the right to do it, but should they”

At least Palin adimits they have the right to build what they want on there private property as we all should.

A few months ago he told Israel NOT to build new settlements in East Jerusalem.

Obama: "Wants Israel NOT to build settlements in East Jerusalem." Now "Supports Mosque in New York" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2570705/posts

Obama used the “That’s above my pay grade.” quote during the campaign and wouldn’t answer the question when asked about abortion.

So sounds like she is using the truth against Obama.

Folks, this is just a sign of things to come. If you think Sarah Palin is hitting BHO hard in the cojones now, wait until it’s her vs. him in the 2012 general election. Really, I can’t believe some here don’t see that she will be the GOP nominee and next President. It could not be more obvious.

She’s calling him out. She can say whatever she believes. And she is usually right. But if she becomes a candidate, she would have to rein it in, become different. We need her to be the way she is, telling the truth without fear.

Well, smalltownslick, she is telling the truth without fear.

Deal with it. This is the big leagues played in the big town, not in a small town, slick.

And why name it “Cordoba”?

Because of the rich, Corinthian leather :)

I think you should read my post again. That’s what I said.
