U.S. should stand firm against mosque

Posted September 17, 2010 11:00 pm

Can you tell me one good reason why I should sit back and let Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf tell me what is not hallowed ground?

It is not his hallowed ground to him. It might as well be a chicken farm. And in fact, it is a piece of landscape that absorbed a murderous attack. The significance of allowing a mosque to open there and letting our enemies rub our face into this murderous scene is hideous. I am tired of hearing from them and Obama's nonsensical refusal to link the terrorist activities with Muslims in general.

Obama is one of two things. He fears attaching blame to the Muslims and possibly increasing the terrorist activity. Or in his heart, he remains a Muslim, shielding their activities.

We must get smart and tough on a number of levels. Otherwise we are cooked.
