Greg Sargent is obfuscating for Pelosi. Here is her original comment as first reported at
Free Republic last night. It's crystal clear what she was talking about:
"There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded. How is this being ginned up that here we are talking about Treasure Island, something we've been working on for decades, something of great interest to our community as we go forward to an election about the future of our country and two of the first three questions are about a zoning issue in New York City," hissed Pelosi.

When the Muzzies take over they will close Pelousi’s winery and pit her in a burqa. I wonder if she has ever thought of that.

More weasel words from the House Ferret. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that one of her many and varied interests has a hand, political or financial, in the effort to place “Cordoba House” (with its rich, Corinthian leather seats?) within the blast area of GZ.

I assume the clarification of Pelosi's call for investigation involves investigating everyone except Harry Reid and any other Rats that think the Mosque is inappropriate will be exempted from investigation. Right?

I''ll repeat in part what I said on a related thread:
There is no question about the legal right of a private owner to build on his or her own property whatever they desire, subject to local zoning and building regulations.
The issue here is the wisdom and decency of building a place of religious worship immediately adjacent to an infamous site which was destroyed at the cost of 3,000 souls by members of the same faith who claimed their actions in the name of that faith.
For a Speaker of the House to frame the issue as a political one - when those opposing the mosque have largely not done so - says more about the Speaker than it does about those opponents whom she suggests ought to be "investigated", as though the 1st Amendment and all other relevant portions of our Constitution had already been rendered moot by Sharia law.

Not equivalent. It’s relevant to know who from overseas might be funding the victory mosque. Who is funding free speech in the United States is none of her business.
