Republican candidates around the country seized on President Barack Obama's support for the right of Muslims to build a mosque near ground zero, assailing him as an elitist who is insensitive to the families of the Sept. 11 victims.
From statehouses to state fairs on Tuesday, Republican incumbents and challengers unleashed an almost unified line of criticism against the president days after he forcefully defended the construction of a $100 million Islamic center two blocks from the site of the 2001 terror attacks.
Recalling the emotion of that deadly day, Republicans said that while they respect religious freedom, the president's position was cold and academic, lacking compassion and empathy for the victims' families.

How about he is a communist working to destroy the American way of life...
But...he's "insensitive"???
Gotta' love the AP's dramatic wording.
IMAM OBAMA !!
Of course he’s insensitive to the thoughts of Americans. How would he know?
insensitive to athiests
Imam 0bama isn’t insensitive.
He’s very sensitive to his religions need to build monuments at the sites of its great victories.
When he was in Jerusalem, he prayed to Allah at the Al Aqsa mosque on the ruins of the Temple Mount.
In liberal speak, isn’t “insensitive” just one step better than being “racist” or “homophobic”?
The unholy scum demoncraps have every “news” outlet pulling for them, spewing their hateful anti-Republican diatribes, everywhere you turn. All we have is Rush. It ain’t fair!!!
Obama managed to turned the issue into lose-lose for himself and the D-rats.
If it gets built, it’s his fault. If it doesn’t, he appears weak.
Nice move Sherlock.
He’s very sensitive to Muslims, even to the point of backing this stupid mosque.
It’s just Democratic propaganda. The Democratic chunk of the news media is totally corrupt. There’s no news in anything they do.
