Conservatives are so stupid. How do you think the Afghanis feel when we build a base there, or the Iraqis feel when we bulld a military city there? Nah....its different when WE do it, riiiiight, right?
"This ground is sacred"....its frickin New York.
for a nation FOUNDED on religious tolerance these people funding this are going in the opposite direction.
Here's an idea for you idiots, "REBUILD GROUND ZERO!!!" its been almost 10 years.

Who gives a ***** this country is all done anyway, it's turning into another third world garbage dump.
TURNING?
you should check what a 3rd world country is, and how our lack of manufacturing, exportation of raw goods and importation of finished goods puts the United States in the category of a 3rd world nation.
What total Bull *****, the "mosque" is nothing more than an empty room with wall to wall carpet in it somewhere in a community center two blocks from zero. No Dome, No minarets, no call to prayers. More Hysteria and scare tactics from the clowns.
I started reading about this last winter, when i read the headline i was pizzed, then i read the rest of the story.
Holy, it's not as simple as you're attempting to make it out to be. While I'd allow (I don't want to say support) the mosque to be built, I absolutely understand why so many don't want it there. I couldn't imagine what it must be like to be someone who lives there, or had someone they know and love die there. I don't know when this mosque was planned, or what the specifics associated with it's being built are, but I wonder if there couldn't have been some kind of accomodation made to appease both parties. Something like building it a few blocks away from that particular site maybe. I'm guessing with the congestion of the area, such a possiblity would be incredibly difficult to make happen. Never the less, I don't know how you tell them they can't build it. If it were a temple, church, etc. no one would (generally speaking of course) mind. I wonder if the security of the people who will be frequenting the mosque, would be somehow used as a reason to put it elsewhere. I'm not saying that should happen, but the gubmit always finds a way to justify something it wants to do. Again though, I'm not sure how you can tell them they can't build a mosque.

BTW, I don't think the protest here is relegated to conservatives. NY is a pretty blue state, and I'm sure the heart of the city there is very blue as well. The disdain, or opposition toward the mosque, probably crosses all kinds of political lines, on a civilian level.

Good point. I also recall video of CIVILIAN (non-radical) muslims around the world celebrating with that God-awful savage screaming noise they make after 9-11. So if average muslims were celebrating....lingering anger is just and understandable.

Lets just not allow any mosques in new york, or Washington. After all, it was muslims who flew planes into those buildings.
Lets not let any white christians build churches in Oaklahoma City.
Lets not build any churches near any IRS buildings
No churches for white people in Oakland
THE MUSLIM RELIGION DIDNT ATTACK US ON 9-11
