The most comprehensive article I've read yet happens to be on Liberal Lunacy, which you can quickly access by this link:

Excerpts:
"The Center will include three major cultural components that have little to do with the attack on the World Trade Center."
1. The Museum Exhibition Spaces will tell freedom's story from a liberal-left perspective."
Translation: The Marxist-left, anti-American media center
2. Educational and Cultural Center: sponsoring an extensive array of lectures, symposia, debates, films and other events in its theaters and public halls that will nurture a global conversation on freedom in our world today.
Translation: The Marxist-left propaganda forum
3. Civic Engagement Network: connecting visitors with opportunities to act in freedom's service in their own communities and around the world.
Translation: The Marxist-left network headquarters
More disturbing, the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation is handing over millions of federal dollars and the keys to that building to some of the very same people who consider the post-9/11 provisions of the Patriot Act more dangerous than the terrorists that they were enacted to apprehend.
the IFC's list of those who are shaping or influencing the content and programming for their Ground Zero exhibit includes a Who's Who of the human rights, Guantanamo-obsessed world: The driving force behind the IFC is Tom Bernstein, an activist lawyer in the human rights movement. He has been a proud member of Human Rights First since it was founded, as the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights, 27 years ago, and has served as its president for the last 12. It was Mr. Bernstein's organization, joined by the American Civil Liberties Union, that filed a lawsuit three months ago against Donald Rumsfeld on behalf of detainees in Iraq and Afghanistan. It was Human Rights First that filed an amicus brief on behalf of alleged "dirty bomber" Jose Padilla.
NOTE: There is a link on the liberal lunacy.net site which takes you to the page for signing the petition in protest to this monstrosity, which is an affront to the victims of 9/11 and to every sincere, full-blooded American patriot among us!
-- Seeks to understand Orcs in historical context Citizens of Gondor met today and decided that the ideas of their fathers that Sauron meant only slavery and tyranny and his orcs were deployed only for rapine and slaughter were too one-sided and insufficiently ironic to comprehend the subtle and complex realities of the many-faceted situation. "There are plenty of problems with 'our side' as they call it," said one of the conferees,"After all, what was it with Elrond and his chauvinistic idea that Arwen could only marry someone who met his approval? Wasn't the whole elf-human thing basically racist?" Other conferees maintained that the idea that Sauron was evil arose from culture specific presuppositions. "If you take the large view, you can see that Fondor cut Sauron off from economically important sea-ports. Sauron really had no other alternative as long as the (continued, section D page 34)
These slithering reptiles want to give the terrorists a ligitimate voice in the world. It's all about diversity and multi-culturalism, don't you know?
I can not for the life of me understand what there is to debate!
Please.
We need once again a constant reminder about what groups and financial backers are pushing this abomination.
We need names and addresses. These clowns need to know what American anger looks like.
If Saudi Arabia is even remotely connected to this it is the last straw for me.
Thank you. We needed that post.
Did someone say ACLU?
Roger Baldwin, the co-founder of the ACLU said: I am for socialism, disarmament, and ultimately, for abolishing the state itself. I seek social ownership of property, the abolition of the properties class, and sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal. I dont regret being part of the communist tactic. I knew what I was doing. I was not an innocent liberal. I wanted what the communists wanted and I traveled the United Front road to get it. In spite of Baldwins Communist leanings, President Jimmy Carter awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom on January 16, 1981.
Baldwin didnt create the ACLU in a vacuum, he had plenty of help. A group of Communist Party officials, fellow travelers, anarchists and radicals joined Baldwin to found the ACLU in 1920.
The battle over Ground Zero By JENNIE FARRELL AGAINST the "International Freedom Center"
The battle over Ground Zero By PAULA BERRY IN FAVOR of the "International Freedom Center"
The biggest problem is trying to please EVERYONE, ALL the time. Some input, OK, but the "Dueling Factions" have gotten ridiculous, and this "IFC" idea is PURE LEFT WING CRAP!
I also would like to join you in refraining from suggesting that anyone who would desecrate the names of those who were slaughtered in that attack should be pummeled.

The only thing in the memorial should be a series of monitors replaying that morning's TV coverage in an endless loop. Including the cheering Palestinians..
Uh-oh.
Who let the commies into this?
Grrr. This stuff makes my blood boil. Communism, the most blood-stained ideology the world has ever known, evokes no response of revulsion by these people who describe it in such glowing terms.
And folks...the Democratic party and Hillary Clinton are in bed with them. We had better wake up.
I'm with you on this.
Awesome! They said they already have over 18,000 signatures. They deserve to get a hell of a lot more than that and hope they do. What the IFC "people" are doing is nothing short of an abomination.
From the http://www.takebackthememorial.com/ website:
"A soaring structure should dominate the site, taking its place along New York City's wonderful skyline. It should be visible for miles to demonstrate the spirit of those who gave their lives to defend freedom. There should be a museum and a library. Those who visit should be able to relive the experience in a way that does justice to the enormity of the events...Done correctly, the memorial at ground zero will commemorate the horror and the heroism of Sept. 11." - Rudy Giuliani
I just heard this on the radio this morning.
Sign me up for the fight.
