A New York City planning commission voted this week to clear the way for a planned Islamic community center and mosque near the site of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Wrong again. He was never “for” gay marriage. He is FOR states rights. But then that concept is a little above your paygrade isn’t it, Temper?

Thanks for not answering my question.

Are you aware of the significance of THAT PARTICULAR BUILDING or not?

I wish the media would ask him to follow up on his position on this matter I bet he would squirm and FLIP-FLOP like a worm.

I’m guessing he won’t.
Now,While the ground breaking that Perry attended is serious,
Let’s not forget, that Texas also busted some huge Jihadi funding fronts.

Back when Perry supported the 10th Amendment. Now he’d probably support a Constitutional amendment outlawing mosques within X miles of ground zero.

Why is it a stupid question? Are you unaware, or are you afraid to answer the question?

That is NOT what Perry “thinks” and you know it.

It seems that with each day we discover Pandering Mitt Perry has sunken to a new low. I don’t know about you but I know I am not surprised.

You can’t have it both ways, Temper. Either we get abortion overturned by the Supreme Court, which means it then goes to the individual states to allow or disallow it...same with gay marriage that is CURRENTLY a state issue, you now want it to be a federal one so big government can decide what’s best?

Is a Shinto priest there leading prayer services for a false god and exhorting the congregation to hate Americans?

The number faux conservatives I see lately are alarming. And they don’t realize they are simply statists of a different shade, like Obama, Pelosi, Kerry, McCain, Graham, et. al., bent on imposing their version of the contra-constitutional federal government on the states.

I say piss on all statists, regardless of their stripes.
