Keep digging, Sir.
The one good thing about this is that this is a hot button issue for many Americans.

Translation: “Let me be clear. I was saying that my Muslim friends have a right to build a mosque wherever they want. I wasn’t saying it was a wise choice in this case, just that they have a right to build whatever they want on private property. So it is wrong to question them. This is between us Muslims.”
"I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making a decision to put a mosque there," Obama told reporters while visiting the Gulf Coast. "I was commenting very specifically on the right people have that dates back to our founding. That's what our country is about."By "our country" Obama was referring to the Domain of Islam, not the United States of America. Thanks NormsRevenge.
Obama... words escape me... PHUCK YOU and that camel you rode in to the WH on... You are not only a total phoney but a wimp...You cower at the slightist provocation. Like the Muslims we fight in foreign lands, you are sneaky and will say anything to achieve what you want of us.
Mark my words, when we are attacked again here or abroad, I do NOT expect this cowardly bast*rd to do anything but run. IF you think Jimmy Carter was impotent, you ain’t seen nothing yet with this guy.
HIs response to any criticism, falling polls etc is to go on THE VIEW. He is no Jackie Robinson. He has and never will garnish my respect. He has done nothing in his paltry life to make me want to follow him.
Never in the history of the presidency, has one come into office with the opportunity to do so much good in the world, and in the final analysis will do so much bad.
You elected him, you people voted for him. I’m sure there are people even on this forum who did.
Islam is the enemy. We will not allow Sharia Law in this land of ours. The line is drawn, where do you stand?
Some idiot woman talking head with the last name Kucinich was on Fox Newschannel yesterday and said this Obama move will have no effect on the upcoming elections. Is she that dumb or thinks she alone can make it a non issue?
Why are muslims here in the first place? American values, traditions, and beliefs, are totally and absolutely incompatible with Islam.
They have not come here to be able to freely practice their religion of violence, torture, stoning, bloodshed, and war.
They have come here to conquer and divide America. To convert or subjugate America. Their mission has no time line. If it takes a century or two, they are patient.
For now, Muslims make demands upon America to accomondate their cult practices. Demands upon airlines, schools,colleges, public facilities, and so on. America obliges. But, in the future, it will be the Jews and the Christians, in America, who will be pleading with them for mercy.
Your headline says 0 backed off his original comments. Actually, he didn’t as far as the muzzies who heard him are concerned. The Koran tells muzzies to lie to infidels if it furthers their religion; accordingly, his retraction doesn’t count.
The argument lib talking heads are now using is that Republicans/conservatives oppose freedom of religion.
For example, does anyone remember this remark from early November 2008? "At a Virginia rally - 'If youll stand with me, then I know that we can win Virginia and we can win this election and we can finally bring the change we need to Washington,' Obama told the estimated crowd of 35,000. 'I feel like we got a righteous wind at our backs here.'
Then, there is this quote from Chairman Mao:
The ill wind of opportunism is falling, the righteous wind of socialism is on the rise.
When I saw Drudge’s photo of Obama today, I knew the truth: Obama looks pale, tired, and weak. He’s been doing the Ramadan fast.
"His Friday comments drew criticism from conservatives and others, and the president sought to clarify them during a trip to Florida on Saturday."I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making a decision to put a mosque there," Obama told reporters while visiting the Gulf Coast."
It's a bitch bein' the first post-American pres and all, ain't it bobo? All these pesky non-post-Americans n' stuff...
The Chinese Communists (http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/world/2010-08/14/content_11153693.htm) do NOT agree with this MSM propagandist:
“US President Barack Obama on Friday forcefully endorsed allowing a mosque near the site of the destroyed World Trade Center, saying the country’s founding principles demanded no less...”
(snip)
:
After his statement, a number of individuals reportedly rushed to the stage to shake Obamas hands following his unexpectedly direct endorsement of the mosque. -- Politico.com
Saturday: Well, my intention was simply to let people know what I thought. In this country we treat everybody equally and in accordance with the law, regardless of race, regardless of religion. I was not commenting and I will not comment on the wisdom of making the decision to put a mosque there.
There was no wisdom in your original statement, bobo, thusly, QED to 'not comment on the wisdom'.
President Chicken Droppings with the wetted finger in the wind.
OBL (Obama Bin Lyin) doesn’t know shinola about what this country is about. If he did, he would’ve kept his mouth shut about them damn muslims having a right to build their mega-mosque near where so many AMERICANS lost their lives. They might have the “right” (IF they’re citizens?), but that doesn’t necessarily make it RIGHT or morally wise.
Here is Politico’s take on Obama’s remarks of last Friday -— they knew perfectly well that Obama “stands up for” the construction of the mosque at that site. Not simply for a “right” to build it, Obama ENDORSED the project, period!! We need to circulate his exact words far and wide, plus initial accurate reports such as the one linked below, before the MSM can succeed in re-writing history yet again....

Obama Stands Up for Ground Zero Mosque
Phillip & Haberman, Politico
President Barack Obama on Friday endorsed a controversial plan to build a mosque and Islamic center just blocks from Ground Zero in Manhattan, despite the strong objections of conservatives, the ADL and those who lost loved ones in the September 11 attacks.Ground Zero is, indeed, hallowed ground, Obama said at a White House dinner celebrating the Muslim holiday of Ramadan. But let me be clear: 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.Having steered clear of the controversy for weeks, Obama took on opposition to the mosque...
