It's gratifying that the Pres has come out for following federal law and not screwing with building the mosque.

are you planning to attend the lecture? is Obama going ? will Mickey Kahane get drunk and proposition someone's wife during the lecture?
why do we want to know this?

@ miguel cervantes:

you link to this level of shirt?

somebody quoting, with approval, Geller saying that Obama ....

He has, in effect, sided with the Islamic jihadists

@ CK MacLeod:
I'm sure that we'll all feel a lot safer if really, really, really enhanced interrogation methods were employed.

let's trim some of their excesses in the tried-and-true manner.

being safe means never having to say you're sorry.

@ miguel cervantes:

is there any way that my prayers will be answered and that the Army can stage a raid into Wisconsin and capture that MadCow idiot?

I dream of hearing that he's been waterboarded AND cheeseboarded as well.

@ miguel cervantes:
well, the thing about wet birds is that they're really not fish and can't be understood as if they were because the spoilage factor is entirely different given the variation in optimal storage and different tastes doesn't even begin to gap that bridge.

I hope this clarifies your comment which obviously is either foul or fishy if it's in English.

@ George Jochnowitz:
George, you're perfectly free (and probably right) to think that the jokes are not funny, but taking 'em seriously isn't real good.

As dumb as it usually is to explain little jokes, out of concern for your sensibilities I'll anyway attempt to explain that they're meant as mocking the all-too-prevalent conspiracy thinkers in this country who blame everything on the government and the Israelis.

The jokes, if understood, probably shouldn't be offensive to you....at all.

Hope this helps.

America's Israeli Palestinian Arab Christian racist murderer.

No, once his name was released the news was very clear in identifying him as an Israeli-not-a-Jew-but-an-Arab-not Islamic-but Christian.

@ miguel cervantes: trying to say that failure to have government regulate the use of privately purchased property off-site is equivalent to somehow favoring Islam because we regulate the use of public property and funds on-site is ...... low and stupid and/or low and dishonest.

@ miguel cervantes: yeah, she posted the same drivel at hot air.

love that woman, can't fathom what she's doing that's melting her brain.

@ George Jochnowitz: So you've no problem with a Palestinian state that allows no Jews to safely reside in it?

Would you see no injustice in forcing Jew to neither reside nor worship near Ground Zero?

@ George Jochnowitz:

What's the compromise, George? Should Jews not be allowed to live and worship in Hebron or should the other folks allow them their right to live in peace?

@ George Jochnowitz:

The governor, wading into a fierce national debate over freedom of religion, said “there is no reason why” the center, known as Park51, should not be built as planned, two blocks from the former World Trade Center.

George, you agree that Jews shouldn't live or worship in Hebron if it offends the other folks living there?

and, of course, the bunghole known as MadCon is complaining in the comments about how this is oh so far from the reasoned and principled position being advocated. why, something like this might cause those idiots on the left to think that he and the other Know-Nothings were bigoted or something!
