This has been a bad week for many. Leading up to today, I, like everyone, have only thought about the pain and death and scars that 9/11 has left behind. This past Monday I buried a dear friend who was only 24 and still had his whole life ahead of him. A bad week indeed.
We have an Imam, Feisal Abdul Rauf who just returned from a trip throughout the Middle East on our taxpayer dime (actually more like $16,000.00) who says he is "building bridges", yet in reality he wants to build a mosque. Okay, so it is 2 blocks from Ground zero, who cares?
71% of the people in this country don't want it there, but who cares? Mayor Bloomberg doesn't care, Nancy Pelosi doesn't care, President Obama doesn't care and the list of those that don't care goes on. 71% of the population that do care evidently no longer matters, as long as those in power don't.
Imam Rauf has been shown to have ties to extremists, but no one cares.
