Hill teased the segment at the top of show by declaring that Obama's "apparent defense of the proposed mosque at Ground Zero has Republicans howling."

The MSM's disconnect from outside the beltway sentiment may be what saves us ultimately.

The above bit is meant to show Republicans as "politicizing" an issue. What it ACTUALLY does is show that Republicans are in touch with the average American's sentiment on this issue, while the MSM and White House are doing their bloodless Vulcan thing.

Dems and MSM are completely disconnected from their humanity, and live in this world where what they THINK they should believe controls them.

The Left is basically down to sadism towards “real America” to maintain the illusion of power. But also going for them is the “Respectable Conservative” faction who makes a living cowtowing to the crazy Left.

No, what the Conservatives are doing is pointing out how Obama's ideological biased mindset makes him dangerously out of touch with Americans and completely unfit to be our President.

Perhaps we need to put the debate in a context the Progressive Fascists Media machine can understand.

What would be your reaction Democrat Party activists pretending to be Journalists, if the Aryan Nation wanted to build and office for their organization next door to the hotel in Memphis where MLK Jr was assassinated?

Schieffer and his crowd can't see that. They are stuck in a Nixon-era mindset, where Republicans were rich overweight white guys, and the independents were more liberal. They've been insulated in DC for so long they think that the ONLY people who could possibly be against their progressive BS are cliched Republicans. Couldn't possibly be moderates or even Democrats.

"The President said and made the right intellectual argument

That's the ENTIRE problem - Obama and the left are making intellectual arguments in a situation that screams out for hard-nosed pragmatism - they refuse to face the reality that Islam as commonly practised is not compatible with our Constitutional Republic.

But then again, that's the core problem with the far left anyway - they engage in intellectual arguments that exist in defiance of real-world experiences.

Since the Left has no grounded sense of morality or values, they understandably get this wrong.

My religion teaches me to weep with those who weep. It also teaches me to be truthful, not to steal, and not to plot for the destruction or oppression of others.

Legally, Muslims have every right in the world to build the mosque. Schieffer, my Mother and Dad taught me very clearly that, just because something is legal, that does not make it right. Did your Mother and Dad not teach you the same thing?

It is the wrong thing to do because it offensive to so many in our country, it taunts, ridicules and insults those who lost loved ones and friends in the attack (as well as those who were injured and traumatized), it is deceptive in its intent (feigning the intent for encouraging brotherhood and good will while heralding their incremental triumph in destroying and conquering our nation and culture).

My friends, they do have the right. But building the mosque so close to the attack site is every bit as evil as the attack itself.

As long as we let the left define the terms used in any debate we are going to lose. They milk every dishonest tactic from Saul Alinsky (may his maggot ridden body never be at rest) such that the debate is rigged from the get go.

Only religions get religious protections from the 1st Amendment and that protection is freedom OF religion not FROM religion HOWEVER we automatically just accept the left’s assumption that Is-Slime is a religion.

Is a cult which DEMANDS you kill or enslave non-believers a religion or a hate cult like the KKK? (other religions have discarded their savage past yet Is-Slime basks in the evil that is in the comic book for retards the koran.

Is a cult which DEMANDS you kill someone who leaves the cult a religion or a hate cult?

Is a cult which DEMANDS you behead those who speak, write, draw anything negative regarding the “religion of filth” a religion or hate cult?

There is no HATE CULT protection in the first amendment.

You could almost respect Obama’s desire to hilight religious tolerance, IF there was a single example since he has been President of him EVER making a comment about ANY Christian or Jewish religious group which was being discriminated against.

I have NEVER heard Obama stand up for Christian values, for Christian tolerance, or to defend Christian or Jewish rights.

To: Sub-Driver; All

Most people do not recognize that what happens in a mosque is sedition. Pure and simple. Islam is not just a “religion”, it is a cult, it is it’s own government, its judicial...is in its sharia, and its military (jihadis) all rolled into one with one intent ...and that is to rule wherever they take root. It is a invasive, systemic infection looking to take over the host once it has quantum.

This is not just a “religion”, but something that cloaks itself in those terms so it should not be given the same treatment contemplated under the first amendment. It’s rules are to consume whatever government is wherever it goes. To supplant and replace.

The sooner America learns this , the better.

Obama? Obama and Company? Should be tried for treason in this issue for promoting the establishment of a foreign government on our soils.

Islam's Hamas organizes 'weddings' of 450 little girls 6-9 years old

If NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love Association) tried to build a recruiting center at 9/11 would Obama be for the homosexual center? Yet, Obama is all for an organization that rapes 6 year old girls.
