It's getting almost sad.

Certainly the "ego" at work don't you think ?

I thought it was classic the plans by Greg Gutfeld who wants to show the Muslims "what fer" by opening a gay bar nest to their center. Keeping it classy New York! And this coming from a Fox News commentator. (see A Muslim gay bar near Ground Zero?)

I still don't know why the Republicans allow themselves to be led around by the nose by the rancor and rhetoric coming from those corporate shills at Fox. This was a non-issue from day one, yet they blew it up all out of proportion.

Funny pic. Can you fix the code so it shows the picture without needing to click the link? Such a task is strenuous for the lazy out there...

While I agree wholeheartedly that this issue as a country is non-issue, I do believe it is an issue with some that lost loved ones. Whether at the hands of its own government or Islamic terrorist (you choose, cause this isn't the place to debate it), people wish to hold the site sacred.

Now. In terms of the 'gay bar' next to the muslim center. It is a failed attempt at trying to prove a point. That while those that pushed the Islamic Center were calling for tolerance, they changed their tone to a 'gay bar' opening up next to their center.

Either way, constitutionally and lawfully they are allowed to open up what they wish. More power to them. But if your center is for outreach and only those of Muslim faith attend, what outreach have you exhibited?

Whatever, dont really really care cause im drunk.

Which I am all for. Similar to the YMCAs, which I believe are a good thing for communities. But understanding to the fact that they have an uphill battle.

Also, I was referring that the overall cultural of New Yokers would not attend such a center. Maybe because of fear, intolerance or whatever...it will overall be just as it is advertised, a Muslims Outreach center.....outreaching only to Muslims.

With that said. I do not care about ones faith in terms of imposition towards another. I am just as resistant in regards to the claims made by evangelical Christians that we must push our faith upon others. I believe in do as I do, not as I say type of mentality.
