The proposed mosque near where the World Trade Center was attacked and destroyed, along with thousands of American lives, would be a 15-story middle finger to America.
It takes a high IQ to evade the obvious, so it is not surprising that the intelligentsia are out in force, decrying those who criticize this calculated insult.
What may surprise some people is that the American taxpayer is currently financing a trip to the Middle East by the imam who is pushing this project, so that he can raise the money to build it. The State Department is subsidizing his travel.
The big talking point is that this is an issue about “religious freedom” and that Muslims have a “right” to build a mosque where they choose. But those who oppose this project are not claiming that there is no legal right to build a mosque near the site of the World Trade Center.
If anybody did, it would be a matter for the courts to decide — and they would undoubtedly say that it is not illegal to build a mosque near the site of the World Trade Center attack.
The intelligentsia and others who are wrapping themselves in the Constitution are fighting a phony war against a straw man. Why create a false issue, except to evade the real issue?
Our betters are telling us that we need to be more “tolerant” and more “sensitive” to the feelings of Muslims. But if we are supposed to be sensitive to Muslims, why are Muslims not supposed to be sensitive to the feelings of millions of Americans, for whom 9/11 was the biggest national trauma since Pearl Harbor?
It would not be illegal for Japanese Americans to build a massive shinto shrine next to Pearl Harbor. But, in all these years, they have never sought to do it.
When Catholic authorities in Poland were planning to build an institution for nuns, years ago, and someone pointed out that it would be near the site of a concentration camp that carried out genocide, the Pope intervened to stop it.
He didn’t say that the Catholic Church had a legal right to build there, as it undoubtedly did. Instead, he respected the painful feelings of other people. And he certainly did not denounce those who called attention to the concentration camp.
There is no question that Muslims have a right to build a mosque where they chose to. The real question is why they chose that particular location, in a country that covers more than 3 million square miles.
If we all did everything that we have a legal right to do, we could not even survive as individuals, much less as a society. So the question is whether those who are planning a Ground Zero mosque want to be part of American society or just to see how much they can get away with in American society?
Can anyone in his right mind believe that this was intended to show solidarity with Americans, rather than solidarity with those who attacked America? Does anyone imagine that the Middle East nations, including Iran, from whom financial contributions will be solicited, want to promote reconciliation between Americans and Muslims?
That the President of the United States has joined the chorus of those calling the Ground Zero mosque a religious freedom issue tells us a lot about the moral dry rot that is undermining this country from within.
In this, as in other things, Barack Obama is not so much the cause of our decline but the culmination of it. He had many predecessors and many contemporaries who represent the same mindset and the same malaise.
There are people for whom moral preening has become a way of life. They are out in force denouncing critics of the Ground Zero mosque.
There are others for whom a citizen of the world affectation puts them one-up on those of us who are grateful to be Americans, and to enjoy a freedom that is all too rare in other countries around the world, even at this late date in human history.
They think the United States is somehow on trial, and needs to prove itself to others by bending over backwards. But bending over backwards does not win friends. It loses respect, including self-respect.

"Survival of the fittest" not the richest
The Bunker:
Who are we? Are we Americans? Are we not the greatest? Can we not do anything? Then what is this lie that if these banks and/or business's fail our nation will fail?
If one fails then another rises up!
To quote Darwin :) ..... "Survival of the fittest" not the richest and yet it seems we are all falling into this trap that only the rich are not allowed to fail. I know the likes of AIG has its hands in everything but if it is pensions we are worried about then use the "stimulus" to payoff those pensions and then let AIG fail :D
If they fail then someone else can and will just come along and start again. The next guy in line who thought I will never get a shot all of a sudden gets a shot.
We only fail as a nation when we, the masses start believing the lie, and start believing we can't unless government does!!! That is not Biblical and it is not what America was built upon.
So be a free thinker, Stand up, Rise up and Speak out for what you believe in but get ready to Hunker down as the daggers start flying your way as you voice yourself against the machine.
Write your congress men! Write your representative and talk to your neighbors In Love, in all humility and with only the truth. You can do it, I believe in you.

Your Opinion, Survey of some issues - What do you think? Please pick A,B,C or D for each Topic.
Survey of the Issues Please choose A or B for each topic and sometimes C? or D?
Of coarse there are add ons and other angles just pick which is closeset to you. Other wise the survey would be even longer. Sorry cant please all the people all the time ://
Abortion:
A) It is not your body, get over it. Freedom of Choice.
B)Where is the babies choice. I thought we were to be a voice for the voiceless and defend the innocent. Protect and serve I thought that was in our constitution
Freedom of Choice. Let the Baby have a choice. Life, Liberty and pursuit of happiness. With out life the other two are Mute.
Immigration:
A) Yes, that is how we all got here.
B) Ellis Island ring a bell
How he would handle relations with Iran:
A) Iran where is that, what is wrong with Iran
B) I thought we have been talking to them for like 30 years now I mean 60. Hmmm I guess history is relative
C) By talking to them.
The situation in Iraq:
A) Ask Iraq what they want.
B) Ok
C) Does innocent blood shed or genocide or 9/11 have any bearing to the situation or action implemented
Energy:
A) Find something we can make ourselves.
B) Ok to A, have at it, let me know when you get that done. Because you know there are no scientists in the USA or anywhere else in the world working on that one.
C) Let’s just keep depending on other countries and destroying their resources then we can worry about using ours
Free trade:
A) I like free stuff. Make goods others will buy.
B) Yep – agreed – the free market works every time
Social Security:
A) Keep your capitalist paws off of it. It is not yours.
B) Hmmmmm Social Security is everyone’s I thought. I thought what was mine was yours and what is yours is mine? Isn’t that the Social Security principle. Guess I need to go back to school.
Stem cell research:
A) Let's learn all we can to better ourselves.
B) Ok Adult stem cells have already proven effective and we have cures for diseases from adult stem cells so lets explore that and get all we can with it. Then we don’t have to cultivate human or whale fetuses for the purpose of destruction. Breed to feed doesn’t sound so compassionate to me.
Taxes:
A) We must pay the man if we want the man to care for US.
B) Uhhhh yeah nuff said there – You did fine on that one – Not what A said
Homeland security:
A) Yep, important
B) We have an Army don't we?
Economy:
A) Socialism is great
B) Communism – Anarchy what ever just give me mines.
C) Capitalism the 80/20 mix works very well – I am my brothers keeper.
Honesty and integrity:
B) Very important, I think we should hold politicians accountable for what they say. Character is very important and if you don’t do what you say you said you would do I wont vote for you again. I hold my politicians to a high standard.
B) What are those
C) All Politicians lie
The Constitution:
A) The Fundamental Flaw of America – It limits the federal government.
B) A Brilliant document – Thank God for our founding fathers – It is the Fundamentals of our Freedoms.
C) Never read it, what does it say
Voting:
A) McCain
B) Obama
C) Other
D) No one voting is a waste of time
Economy:
A) Pay cuts for Politicians is out then. No reason to expect them to live on 40/50k a year like the average middle class family right? For the people by the people is no longer a legitimate freedom. Cutting programs that don’t work is out of the question also.
Cutting spending on programs that don’t need all the money they get that is also not reasonable, some programs actually have to go out looking for participants in order to meet quota and keep the existing funding, like you have to spend what you got last year in order to get the same amount or more the next year and when they are not going to spend all the money they buy anything in order to make the deadline, so actually doing something about that would not help budget problems.
Oh the list goes on but what ever, yeah raise taxes that is the best way to accomplish fiscal responsibility on our government.
B) Taxes raise money to pay off debts.
Health care:
A) Make mine free please. I have no money for insurance.
B) Canada or France or Germany – funny I mention that my Aunt lives in France and gets free health care from the government – She has cancer (I am serious) they say she might have 5 years left. She has been flying to the USA to get treatment for the last 2 years, her free health care is very bad so she spends money on plan tickets, travel and American doctors to try and help her, although she is on some experimental homeopathic thing in France that is hopeful (God is such a great scientist – having made everything and all) but still she is moving back here for some reason, I don’t get it with health care being free there and all. But yeah your right Free is good and government free is even better – Mmmmm government cheese is the best, I grew up on it
There is a fair system to help everyone who cannot afford insurance and we can and should help those who cannot help themselves – medicade, Medicare, Family health plus, those are all good programs but there are those who get left behind like those in that 15k to 30k range who are single with no kids or dependents, we need to focus on them right now and figure out how to get some affordability to them also they are the work engine of USA. Healthcare is not a right but as my brothers keeper lets try and be therefore each other. But if you have and choose to not get so you can have something else don’t get hot when your hurt and with out insurance. Although we will try to help out if we can anyway, slacker
C) What ever – good health was never promised to anyone – get a better job if you can’t afford health care that’s what I did
Gay rights:
A) Sure agreed- Polygamy, Lets lower age of consent to lets say 2 years old – there are millions of folks who will vote for this one, I like dogs and I want to do mine so bestiality too cause my dog loves me unconditionally so who has the right to tell me right from wrong not you I live in America and love is love. Besides I was born this way I have always liked animals and fantasized about being with one.
B) Rights have a foundation and the foundation is paved by love – Like a mother or father who loves their child.
C) How about everybody gets human rights?
Housing:
A) everyone had the right to own a home, and the government stuck it’s hands into the free market, government regulation forcing private business and creating a partial governmental housing lending institution which had to loan money to people who could not possibly pay it back, In order to be fair to everyone and guaranteed they would pay defaulted loans. Which increased true led to a huge market for sub-prime loans instead of just one or two investors the government took all the risk out of the game and now is making good on that guarantee they made.
B) A mess because some evil folks want to profit.
Environment:
A) God won't fix it... We have to
B) We are called to be good stewards of the Earth and that is all we can do. So who made the sun? How do we get up to the Sun and fix it? Scientist are working on a rocket though that will withstand that heat so yes agreed
C) Do not worship the Creation but the Creator. Arrogance and Pride is unbecoming of such intelligent creatures
Guns:
A) Hunting guns yes. Murdering guns no. (AK47)
B) When there were no guns there was no murdering. No death, No crazies.
And I thought the 2nd amendment was established to make sure we the people could always have a militia incase the federal government (like in socialist and communist countries) got to big for its britches and we the people needed to defend ourselves against it. So if the USA Army has tanks and AK47’s and we have 22 pistols and shotguns well Hmmmmm.

2 Questions Obama
Barack Obama has said he is a constitutional scholar, right? I mean he has said that and he writes it in his book and resume, right? He taught law, he was head of the Harvard Law Review
Ok so we have established that so Obama has been running commercials in northern Virginia saying that McCain wants to overturn Roe v. Wade and the ad says which would prevent women from getting abortions. Now, the truth is that if that ever happened it would mean that the states would decide the issue, or even Congress for that matter. Reversing Roe v. Wade would not end abortions, to my great disappointment, but nevertheless that's the case. Shouldn’t Obama Know this? And if he does why is he out there running false ads? If he does not know this, how can he call himself a scholar, what kind of student could he have bee? And more over if he didn’t know before he runs the ads shouldn’t he check for accuracy before putting his stamp of approval on it? What kind of leadership does this show? I thought he said he was about change? I thought he wanted to bring integrity to the office?
One Other thing that I keep wondering about Obama, he keeps saying he has a solution to the “economic woes” we are seeing right now and that he has a clear plan to help alleviate the problems we are seeing. GREAT!!!!! What are they? Waiting……waiting…….waiting……Obama says he has a plan but will tell us once he is elected. WHAT??? Isn’t he part of the senate now? Isn’t he being paid to help us and his constituates now!!! Why do we have to wait for him to be elected? If he puts out his plan now and proposes a bill or anything for that matter that is a good policy that will give him a huge bounce, those who have reservations about his lack of experience and understanding will be able to say NOW LOOK there ya go see he does have good sense he is qualified and then if it is a good plan and it works well then WOW he would have his mojo back. But in stead it is like he is trying to hold us hostage with the answer, I will only tell if you vote for me. Vote for me and then I will help. How is that hope and change and compassion? I don’t get it

A little Obama if you dont mind
This whole thing really fascinates me and I have really been trying to figure out how a guy who has like 200 days in the senate has gotten to be a Presidential Nominee and that is not to say that that in itself would be bad but as I listen to him I realize WOW I actually know more about how my government works and post jobs etc.... than he does. WHAT?? I am just some amateur lover of politics and my country - I guess America really is the land of Opportunity and anyone can run
For office and have a chance Man, woman, black, white, citizen immigrant we all have the same chance I LOVE AMERICA - but here in this case Come on people. I want to see a Black Man as President as much as the next person but I want more what is best for my country. And although neither main candidate is any good, what a sad state of affairs we are in that we have Democrat McCain and Liberal wet behind the ears Obama to choose from - I don’t know how we got here but I will say that Obama has no business as the Democratic Nominee - OK OK so just a couple of things before I go
I love information age – This is a great article simple and sweet – My point exactly.
http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/08/obama_party_loyalty_and_his_ow.html
and as a side note I honestly have to say (even though this is not my quote but still I say it too)
To me, it is striking how unqualified Obama is and how this whole thing came about within the Democrat Party. I think it really goes back to the fact that nobody had the guts to stand up and say "no" to the black guy. Liberal policies are always end up strangling liberals. I think this is a classic illustration here where affirmative action has reared its ugly head against them. It's the reverse of it. They've ended up nominating and placing the top of their ticket somebody that's not qualified, who has not earned it. It's perfect affirmative action. And because all this guilt and the historic nature of things, nobody had the guts to say, "Wait a minute, do we really want to do this?" They do it, and then they start behaving in manners and ways that let us know that they know that they've goofed up with the choice. It actually has been somewhat fascinating to watch.
OH and here is another one on the subject
Obama's complete lack of substance and experience was impossible to conceal. He even caught himself. When he was asked about Clarence Thomas, "Well, I don't think he has the right exper..." He caught himself and said he wasn't qualified at the time he was elevated to that position -- and here's a guy who's been to Yale, a guy who's been to Holy Cross, who spent a year on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals. He worked for Ashcroft as assistant attorney general in the state of Missouri, and Obama is what? A street agitator with 140 days in the Senate, and Obama claims that Clarence Thomas is unqualified?
That's another thing he got caught on, by the way, this bill that he voted against three times in Chicago that would allow the killing of babies born alive, babies that had been through an abortion and survived. Obama said he wanted to go ahead and let those babies be killed because that was the initial intent. He said he voted against it because none of the legislation had any kind of protections specifically aimed at Roe v. Wade. Well, one of the occasions, of the three occasions, did, had the specific request Obama wanted regarding Roe v. Wade and he still voted against it -- or for it, whichever. He voted for killing babies. Now, his answer on abortion was, they say, "nuanced." This is not nuance. "Nuance" implies brilliance and elitism, intellectualism. This wasn't nuance. That was avoidance. Obama was avoiding everything that he had to because he knew who the audience was, and because he can't be honest about what he really thinks and believes -- not seeking to be elected president of the United States. It's gotten down to the point now. Look at how tough a job poor old Caroline Kennedy has. You know, she's at the top of the list vetting Obama's veep choices. How difficult must it be for her to find somebody less qualified than Obama? Every resume she's looking at makes his look like a first grade report card! Seriously, folks. I mean, every resume she's looking at makes Obama look like a total beginner, a neophyte. It's gotta be a problem for them. Everybody is starting to whisper that if he has any prayer of winning, he's gotta choose Hillary. And if he chooses Hillary, he's going to have to have somebody taste his food every day and start his car for him every day
For office and have a chance Man, woman, black, white, citizen immigrant we all have the same chance I LOVE AMERICA - but here in this case Come on people. I want to see a Black Man as President as much as the next person but I want more what is best for my country.

Obama said he wanted to go ahead and let those babies be killed because that was the initial intent. He said he voted against it because none of the legislation had any kind of protections specifically aimed at Roe v. Wade. Well, one of the occasions, of the three occasions, did, had the specific request Obama wanted regarding Roe v. Wade and he still voted against it -- or for it, whichever. He voted for killing babies. Now, his answer on abortion was, they say, "nuanced." This is not nuance. "Nuance" implies brilliance and elitism, intellectualism. This wasn't nuance. That was avoidance. Obama was avoiding everything that he had to because he knew who the audience was, and because he can't be honest about what he really thinks and believes -- not seeking to be elected president of the United States. It's gotten down to the point now. Look at how tough a job poor old Caroline Kennedy has. You know, she's at the top of the list vetting Obama's veep choices. How difficult must it be for her to find somebody less qualified than Obama? Every resume she's looking at makes his look like a first grade report card! Seriously, folks. I mean, every resume she's looking at makes Obama look like a total beginner, a neophyte. It's gotta be a problem for them. Everybody is starting to whisper that if he has any prayer of winning, he's gotta choose Hillary. And if he chooses Hillary, he's going to have to have somebody taste his food every day and start his car for him every day
