Yes, Republicans, you can take advantage of this heated circumstance, backed by the families of the 9/11 victims, in their most emotional return to the public stage since 2001.
But please don't do it. There are a handful of good reasons to oppose allowing the Islamic center to be built so close to Ground Zero, particularly the family opposition and the availability of other, less raw locations. But what is happening now — the misinformation about the center and its supporters; the open declarations of war on Islam on talk radio, the Internet and other forums; the painful divisions propelled by all the overheated rhetoric — is not worth whatever political gain your party might achieve.

Gosh the liberal media are so helpful to Republicans!
We sure won’t throw you into that briar patch!!
SOP for Time. Just make stuff up. The Saul Alinksy way.
No wonder they are nothing more than a pamphlet these days.
Can you imagine ol’ Halprin begging people not to critisize Bush?
Yeah, I don’t know the last time you picked up a Time or Newsweek. I think my local town newspaper generates more in advertising dollars.
Yes it is.
Snotty elitist liberal view of why people oppose the mosque.
Ain’t Republicans, Stupid!
Okay.
Then let's talk about the Lockerbie bomber deal.
Works for me.
“...the misinformation about the center and its supporters; the open declarations of war on Islam on talk radio, the Internet and other forums; the painful divisions propelled by all the overheated rhetoric — is not worth whatever political gain your party might achieve...”
It is NOT misinformation to note that there are radical Mohammedan fingerprints all over the “supporters” of the GZ Mosque. Hey isn’t it about damn time we had some overheated rhetoric in the face of Sharia’s partisans???? This article is so typical of TIME and NEWSWEEK.

third post in an hour
People, let me say it again: If you see it on drudge, it’s almost certainly been posted here at least twice.
They are afraid. They are very afraid. They are desperate. They are also clueless and disconnected from reality.
sadly, Washington is overflowing with mush-headed Republican “leaders” who will take this advice
What cracks me up is Halpren giving advice to Republicans. When a liberal gives advice on what Republicans should be doing you know you’ve hit a nerve.
A Dollar was way too high of a price.

The above is my favorite statement. He states there is misinformation but I didn’t see him state what that misinformation is. He simply begged Republicans not to criticize it.
Time for Hayworth to ask McCain what he thinks of the ground zero victory mosque. In fact, all candidates for all offices around the country should weigh in on this issue because it has national long term importance......are we going to appease Islamofascism or are we going to fight it?
Yes, please, Republicans, PLEASE do not take a public stand that agrees with at least 70% of the American people in opposition to the Commie President of the United States.
PLEASE do not differentiate yourself from Obama’s endorsement of the mosque near Ground Zero. PLEASE, show that you can hold hands with Obama and sing Kumbaya, after all, Obama has done SO MUCH FOR YOU.
