Why does the President have any business in this. Why does he feel the need to "endorse". While the politics are national, the decision is local, and most Presidents have stayed out of such things, but apparently he feels this is politically the right move. I say bad mistake. Politically speaking.

Just remember his roots and upbringing under the wing of the Rev. Wright and he just cant help himself. Just like the cop scandal that gave us the beer party in the garden and his jump to fire the lady from the USda. He thinks he is the "cure all" for all of the worlds problems when he is just the butt of all jokes. If he was "endorsing" a christian, you can bet the masses would be screaming at the top of their lungs, yet the sound of crickets is drowning this "incident" out.

On the same subject, the thing that burns me up, is this same Imam or whatever he is called, is taking a world tour and the taxpayers are picking up his tab for all of his expenses, in the name of promoting religion. Where is the leftys and the anti religion crowd now? Seems like a cross mounted on top of a hill in the desert was a major embarrassment for them, but paying for a muslim to fly around the world on the taxpayer dime, doesnt bother them?

"Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country." Yeah, sure ... ANY religion that preaches and practices MURDER of everybody else has no place or right being in the USA ! Obama confirms my observations that 'Once a Muslim, always a Muslim' , and he is a closet Muslim ! Hey Obama ... Welcome to my SH!T LIST !

When we elected him it was as a time gone by when my Dad told me many times "you got what your deserved", hoping to make a point about my mistakes or mistakes in general............nuff said.........

You guys got problems with freedom of religion?????

Not so much as we have a problem with one specific religion, which a huge number of its adherents have set out to prove requires they force all others to bow to it or die. What many here fail to realize is that Islam is more than a religion and its religion is but the seed of the geopolitical movement for which it is the spearhead. If the Tribes of the Americas had early warning of the similar religious pestilence headed their way 600 years ago, perhaps they would have been less accepting and staved off their excruciating demise when they could have done so. We should take a warning from them and guard more assiduously against this most recent outbreak of an equal attack from an ancient enemy of Western culture now once again threatening universal mayhem and subjugation. We here tend to think of religion and politics as separate activities, hence the desire to hold them apart. Our enemies in Islam think the opposite, as witness the Imam Obama's administration embraces & sponsors in our name who has a long history of fund raising for Hezbollah and Fatah and is at the core of the UpYoursAmerica Mosque.

If what those adherents propose is not "in your face" enough, the President of the United States not only has announced 1st Amendment protections on their behalf, but has gone far beyond that and in a spirit of gleeful unity with them pronounced agreement in their full frontal assault on our sensitivities. I could accept grudging statements concerning upholding 1st A. rights, but I cannot accept joyful commitment to what those rights might let in the back door. You have to be a moron or worse to not recognize an enemy dedicated to your destruction when you see one up close and personal. This bozo has to go.

Nope not at all Fred. It you that will have the problem when these guys will not let you spout off and post troll threads about their religion. You think its funny to poke fun at something you do not like, lets just use anything Palin as an example. If you went and found things and posted them to defame their religion, they have no problem with putting you on a death list and issuing a proclamation that anytime anywhere it is literally okay to take you and your family out, for saying something against their beliefs.

Now.....do you have a problem with freedom of religion?

[FredK]

Obama tries to defend our freedoms and al-Qaeda and the wingnutz get mad.

[TxMusky]

If that is what you consider defending our freedoms.....I do not want you to vote. I dont consider him making us do things that we do not want nor have to constitutionally do... freedom.

Obama is already backing off the "endorsement" part of his initial statement..............typical.

Freedom of religion, no. Keep in mind that my religion has been vehemently attacked and belittled on these very forums, by more than one participant.
My thought on this mosque is, if, and when, a Mormon temple, or chapel is allowed to be built anywhere, without protest, that it would be perfectly ok to have a mosque built anywhere they want. At this point, that is not happening. The complaints are wide and far ranging, but it boils down to, it is a Mormon place of worship. And, last I heard, there was major discussions, and protests in Phoenix and Gilbert over that very thing, with land that the Mormon Church already owned. Tell me how that is different? Well, except that the Mormon church does not force people to join at the tip of a spear, and kill them if they go to another church.

Actually to me it is not so much of a freedom of religion issue as it is a a respect issue. To the ones that not only immediately died but to those who suffered after effects from the smoke and other toxins in the smoke and dust and their families it is a total slap in the face. Throw in the "history" of the religion building a mosque on conquered ground and this becomes a bad deal and no wonder that the majority of Americans are upset over this.

and here come the back down, and the quote from it that sustains my original post, "It is not his role as President to pass judgment on every local project. "

Even in Purgatory I prefer to see members treat each other with a little respect. You're better than name calling.
