If it is anything to do with radical Islam, nothing doing. I know several Muslims and believe them to be good people. Some are more to themselves than others and I can respect that as it is similar to Orthodox Jews in our area. Conservatism does tend to keep a group to themselves. There is a need though for the good people to distance themselves from radicalism. Oppie (20 miles North of ground zero) |

The more I see of these things, through all levels of government, the more I wonder if we have, indeed, been attacked again except, this time, with a new, and as of yet unidentified, biochemical weapon that inflicts on victims a serious case of STUPID.

Don't know it to be true but I saw a person holding a sign at the landmark status meeting yesterday. It stated that "Islam builds Mosques at the sites of their conquests and victories". I would hope that someone in the know might comment on this. |

The entire thing is intended to be a total slap in the face for all free Americans. So far the socialists in the government seem to be supporting them fully, too. Damn it, it is absolutely time to do a FULL HOUSE CLEANING of the federal government, and any state/local governments who have forgotten that this is America. That includes the Poopsident, Mr. Obama. |

message ... The lame-stream press is part of the problem. Used to be that the press was the watchdog... keeping the government semi-honest. Now the press performs the role of propagandist. ...Jim Thompson And part of the reason for that is that journalism as we once knew it (noble and independent) has for one reason or another gotten terribly lazy. They are happy to accept the 'official statements' of the corporations and politicos just to parrot them back to us without any checking... Hey, real fact checking takes resources and money. Oppie |

Perhaps we aught to run Newt for President. http://www.newt.org/newt-direct/newt...ar-ground-zero btw- the Imam of the proposed Mosque owns two apartment buildings in Newark NJ and is purported to be a slum lord. I heard unsubstantiated claims that government money had been loaned for improvements not made on those buildings. |

Burning a copy of the Qu'ran is a stupid and intentional act of inflammation for the purpose of inflaming. In Newt's case one imagines he's trying to make an argument and unnecessary inflammation does not serve the art of persuasion. Frankly, I'm a bit surprised at his 'logic'. For one, since when did we gauge our laws and standard of behavior by Saudi Arabia? And, given that our 'policy' is explicitly based on radical Islam being a group of fanatics who have corrupted Islam for their own nefarious purposes, he runs the risk of declaring Islam owned, defined, and directed by the Saudi government since he implies the issue is a tit for tat 'negotiation' of a church or synagogue 'there' vs 'one of their' mosques 'here'. There are better arguments than implying this is about 'reforming' Saudi Arabia. He's also a bit foot loose and fancy free with the history of Cordoba, to name but a few disappointments I have with it. There are also those who would want our culture to be more compliant with Sharia Law. So much for the great melting pot that America was supposed to be. Any law that subjugates women (need I explain more?) is totally contrary to all western sensibility. I don't endorse 'The gospel according to testicules' in any culture/religion. |
