I don't find it a joke. Apparently someone told the pastor that if he called off burning the Qu'rans, the mosque would be moved. They lied so the deal's off.

Besides, a pastor in Tenn isn't backing down.

I am not laughing at the good reverend. I find this story getting a little amusing.

After all. A pastor over a small church caused Hillary “The Beast” Klinton to issue a world wide Terror Alert.

Americans are at risk every day, with or with out the good pastor.

I find it laughable that anyone would spend an ounce of energy countenancing such a "deal."

Muslims need to accept the fact that, in America, people have a right to insult their faith, just like they have a right to insult Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Hindus, and every other faith.

Likewise, people offended by the ground zero mosque need to get over the fact that getting your feelings hurt once in a while is just a part of life in a free society.

The best way to deal with provocateurs of all stipes, whether it's Imam Rauf or Pastor Jones, is simply to ignore them. Getting all worked up over their antics only empowers and emboldens them.

So some idiot burns a holy book. Another idiot decides to build a Mosque in lower Manhattan next to some strip clubs. Who cares? Let it go. Move on. It only becomes important if you make it so.
