The photo exhibit at the mosque was "inspired" by a "hate crime" killing by Americans of someone mistaken for a muslim.

Gee, if this guy was so inspired by that one killing, then he must be really, really, really inspired by the many thousands killed in recent years by muslim fundamentalists in the name of Islam around the world. I mean, right?

Sharia is incompatible with our Constitution, our laws, our freedoms and our culture and traditions.

It is pretty sick, moral equivalence arguments....mental people

Damn.

BLOAT.

What’s left that’s sacred?

So did Bloomberg show up and pray?
My god this makes me ill.
Open to all faiths as long as it islam.

The Shia and the Sunni are going through the kind of thing that Catholics and Protestants went through 3 or 4 Centuries ago. The reason why our founding fathers voted for a secular government.

[MestaMachine]

This is a traditional muslim pattern. Hide behind the children. This is always their first line of defense...and offense.

Pointing to the inclusivity of a center that critics feared would be polarizing

It can be both.

El-Gamal noted that the featured photographer in the "NYChildren" exhibit is Danny Goldfield, who is Jewish

Yes, but more importantly Goldfield is a big lib (I would bet). And so for the nth time we have the standard arrangement of Muslims and leftists on one side and normal Americans on the other.

[Mr. Mojo]

a small orchestra played traditional Middle Eastern instruments and a photo exhibit of New York children of different ethnicities lined the walls.

Awww, isn't that sweet -- an "It's a Small World After All" magic carpet ride at Ground Zero.

"(The GroundZero Mosque) cleared its final hurdle ….
developers plan to build the $100 million center which will include a mosque.
Since its incipient stages in July 2009, when a Muslim-run real-estate development
company purchased the damaged, vacant building and land where the new center
will be built, the project has sparked controversy and debate.
.... the tattered building that was bought by the Muslim real estate company had
been owned by a subsidiary of Bain Capital, a company Romney founded in 1984.
So it’s OK if his company can profit off the sale of the land ."

“Bain Capital, has cut checks totaling $90,000 to Romney’s operation. “

He called opposition to the center - which prompted one of the most virulent national discussions about Islam and freedom of speech and religion since Sept. 11 - part of a "campaign against Muslims."

And?

I don't see a problem with that.

What's he whining about anyway? 9/11 was a hate crime against America.
