One of the most vocal opponents the planned Islamic community center in lower Manhattan believes the project has suffered fatal public-relations damage and will never be built.
"It is dead," said Andy Sullivan, a New York construction worker who has spent much of the last year organizing against the project, which is known as the "ground zero mosque" or Park51. "They didn't count on the public taking such a hard line against it."
A spokesman for the real estate developer Sharif El-Gamal, who owns the property at 45-51 Park Place, insisted that the project is on track and that "nothing has changed."

I have no problem with them building a mosque.
I DO have a problem with them building it where islamic terrorists destroyed the WTC.
(apologies to the 9/11 folks but I'm trying to keep in theme)
It is an insult to every man and woman who died that day.
Just my humble opinion.

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. But that may also be subject matter for another thread.

I've only said this once before, perhaps you missed it, but I am currently employed by said government. I have avoided the 9/11 threads because I could not, in good conscious, work for a government that would do something like that. Call it denial, call it whatever you want. I'm being as frank and as honest as I can, in relation to the whole 9/11 issue.
Hell, I was out for three whole weeks when the towers fell. And I got a call and went right back in. So call me names, paint me a color denial. But that is an issue I will only tackle sometime in 2013.
Regards my honored foe,

Captain Bitter? Can I get you another cup of Angry? It is your vile obnoxious opinion, and when you finally graduate high school, you might see things differently.
But in the mean time, please continue being vile and foolish.
It's fun to watch.

I'm allowed to have an opinion. I just can't use my official e-mail, name, rank to promote or opine on political issues or candidates.
As for being on a conspiracy site?
Pssst, little secret, how do you think I found out about this site?
I'm sure there are many folks that are/were military on here.
