here's what i think about the mosque/community center at ground zero/wtc site:

[unblock]

cut the fucking waste and pork out of the pentagon budget

keep your fucking mitts of off social security

fucking raise taxes on the rich

stop giving fucking preferential tax rates to non-labor income

create fucking massive jobs programs already

tax fucking million dollar estates

fucking make medicare available for all

fucking hire a shitload more regulators and give them some fucking teeth

restore the fucking fairness doctrine

break up the fucking monopolies

publicly finance all fucking political campaigns and criminalize all fucking private contributions

fix the fucking filibuster rule

if you don't support taking by fucking emminent domain every last piece of land that had any property damage and/or death and/or injury on it related to 9/11 for some public purpose with absolutely no private ownership or private purpose, then, consistent with local zoning laws, let the property owners build whatever they fucking want.

1. Righteous Rant!

:evilgrin: :yourock: :applause:

2. +1

[Jennicut]

3. Right, if that land two blocks away was so "precious" why was it never bought up by the

local govt.? Sheesh. We put in a small cement block memorial in Westport, CT dedicated to those that died on 9/11 from CT (lots of commuters to NYC). This was in 2002! Time to move on already.

4. Now there's an interesting argument.

We are letting them build whatever they fucking want. If they can come up with the money and so far, they haven't.

All the rest is commentary.

In addition to freedom of religion, we also have freedom of speech.

9. ah, but the rest isn't mere commentary. it's higher priorities

[lumberjack_jeff]

10. For everyone who lacks the authority to tell the land use board what to do, it's commentary. n/t

12. missing ... point ...

[cliffordu]

5. Yep. Perfect!!!

[applegrove]

6. Inspiring.

[Martin Eden]

7. abso-fucking-lutely!

We've got all these fucking problems and the rethugs are trying to win elections by stoking fears over a fucking non-issue.

[TheKentuckian]

8. That's awesome

[tex-wyo-dem]

11. Damn! Now that's a BIG +1!!

Huge!

[Scruffy1]

13. Nice rant. And you hit on the real reason for all of this

You need something to distract the masses until football season starts.

[unblock]

14. yeah, isn't it about time for a blonde to go missing or something?

[nc4bo]

15. WTC mosque = distraction from the real, hard core issues.

and will forever keep us (and by us I mean ALL Americans) distracted and divided.

I'm sick of it.

[nc4bo]

16. Btw, K&R. nt

[unblock]
