Notwithstanding his hyperbole, Olbermann makes one valid point: American citizens who wish to build a Muslim cultural center and mosque at Ground Zero are acting within their constitutional rights.

Actually, they're not. Islam is a political and economic system meant to overthrow and supplant ours. Nobody has a right to support or promote such a thing. That's called treason.

Interesting point. Various Imams have called for the "violent overthrow" of the US government. I would conclude then that no Muslim could hold public office nor a security clearance since I believe belonging to a group advocating such violent overthrow disqualifies you from holding said position/clearance.
