The Man Who Would Stop the Ground Zero Mosque
American Thinker ^ | July 25, 2010 | Pamela Geller

Posted on 07/25/2010 9:42:10 PM PDT by citizenredstater9271

When was the last time you heard a politician talking like Carl Paladino?

Carl Paladino, a Republican candidate for Governor of New York, has come out against the Islamic supremacist mega-mosque at Ground Zero.

"As Governor," Paladino said Wednesday in a radio ad, "I will use the power of eminent domain to stop this mosque and make the site a war memorial instead of a monument to those who attacked our country."

I like this guy. I really like this guy. If the Supreme Court could rule, in the notorious 2005 decision Kelo v. City of New London, that the government could seize private property for a private developer and then never develop the property, surely Americans should be able to use eminent domain to designate the Burlington Coat Factory building a war memorial.

That building is a war memorial since part of one of the 9/11 airplanes crashed into it, causing severe damage. That makes the building a war memorial, no less than Gettysburg or Pearl Harbor. There should be no mosque there, and nothing there but a memorial to the people that America lost to that heinous Islamic jihad attack on September 11, 2001.

Instead of a mega-mosque at Ground Zero, we should build on that site a museum dedicated to the 9/11 victims. That will give us the opportunity to redress yet another insult: the current plan for a 9/11 museum is several floors underground, like a dungeon. In contrast, the plan for the "Islamic center" at the Burlington Coat Factory site calls for the mosque to be on the top floor of a thirteen- or fifteen-story building, looking down triumphantly on the burial ground of Ground Zero.

The American people better find candidates willing to speak out and willing to take on the traitors among us. You know the names.

They alone are enough to sway me away from Lazio - you know - because Lazio is so.....appealing!

The fact that they’re even considering putting a mosque at ground zero is an abomination to those who lost their lives to the “religion of peace!”

If this mosque ever gets erected, I hope it gets fu**ing leveled in short order! These people are pure evil, and honoring them with a mosque where our citizens died horrific deaths is an affront to the victims and this nation!

Hmmm, wonder what this gentleman would think about these animals building a mosque at ground zero?:

Today, I just happened to tune in to a liberal talk show host, who was discussing Sarah Palin’s recent statement on this issue. He couldn’t understand what the moral objection was since there were also pornography stores and other such around the immediate area. I kid you not...

Appreciate this support from Paladino, but he absolutely has to change his ad. It’s horrible.

If the mosque is built at Ground Zero, hat are the odds it will be bombed? I wouldn’ bet the babyshoe money against it.
