It was a bit unclear what she was referring to, and now her office sends over a statement from her clarifying what she meant and sort of standing by what she said:
"The freedom of religion is a Constitutional right. Where a place of worship is located is a local decision.
"I support the statement made by the Interfaith Alliance that 'We agree with the ADL that there is a need for transparency about who is funding the effort to build this Islamic center. At the same time, we should also ask who is funding the attacks against the construction of the center.'
"For all of those expressing concern about the 9/11 families, we call upon them to join us in support of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act when Congress returns in September."

“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.

,”hissed Pelosi. Perfect.
This is a grass roots movement. And if it weren’t, and there were actually people funding this opposition (which there aren’t) THEN what? Would they get purged? Get shipped off to the gulags??
What the heck is she even saying?
love your post! no cows were harmed by your post!
They're either out buying prayer rugs, or busy banging their heads on the floor 5x a day!
Sharia = system of law/state. Inseparable from the queeranus/religion.
Pelosi has her entire family being flown all over the country by our military who she hates in 737 Jets!
The government has turned on the people, what a sad day, November 2nd can't come soon enough.
Exactly right, it’s a grass roots opposition. Miss Nancy may just be blowing smoke out of her arse for the media. Red meat for the barking moonbats on the left.
Hey, Nan, you moron...we are all self-”funding” our disgust or you and your ilk. There is no outside funding, you brainless freak. The people of America despise you. Go hit your self in the head with your oversize gavel, you dried-up beast. Have a nice day!
Why can’t America hating Pelosi just shut up?
To borrow a phrase from the Clinton's...It's the location, stupid.
It sure is interesting that the big mouth busy body leftist elected political workers all of the sudden are exhibiting a profound and deep caring in religious freedom, while pontificating division of church and state, and at the same time clamoring for an investigation of American citizens exercising their First Amendment rights.
Yup, her burgha is indeed twisted in a wad.
Republican women are smarter and look better than Democrat women.
She is the 3rd most powerful politician in America and she want 3/4’s of us investigated with the full force of the Federal Government?
Can open revolution be THAT far away?
“The Interfaith Alliance’s work is driven by the fundamental principle that protecting religious freedom is most critical in times of crisis.”
Yeah, will they protect the religious freedom of schoolchildren who desire to voluntarily express themselves religiously in the school?
NO!?! Hypocrites.
Pelosi and the Democrats join the jihad.
Toward a new irrigation system for her vineyard?
This equal for a Hitler statue at Auschwitz.Or a statue of Hitler beside the Arc'd'Triumph.
