Harry Reid Is Just Another Fool on the Mosque ‘Issue’

Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV)

- Harry Reid has just officially ended the entire controversy surrounding the supposed “ground zero mosque,” forever, by announcing that he is against it. Gutless swine like Reid represent well the cowardice of the Democratic Party. -

By Alex Pareene in Salon

He believes, of course, that the organizers of Park51 — a planned community center blocks away from and  having nothing to do with the former site of he World Trade Center — have the right to build what they want on private property. He just thinks they shouldn’t, because it would upset Sarah Palin and Andrea Peyser and Mike Lupica. And a fireman. I am pretty sure that I read that a hero fireman 9/11 widow is against this project, and so it should be moved somewhere where it won’t hurt any heroes, like Canada. Here is Reid’s statement:

The First Amendment protects freedom of religion. Senator Reid respects that but thinks that the mosque should be built some place else. If the Republicans are being sincere, they would help us pass this long overdue bill to help the first responders whose health and livelihoods have been devastated because of their bravery on 911, rather than continuing to block this much-needed legislation. 

Thanks, Harry, for weighing in. We in New York are thrilled to hear what you have to say. But why stop at the “Ground Zero Mosque”? What does the senator from Nevada think about the Bedford Avenue bike lane? Did the majority leader know that numerous schools near ground zero — in what would’ve been the shadows of the Twin Towers — are teaching our children algebra?

And when you say that “the mosque should be build some place else,” well, you just raise the question of where. Does Harry Reid want the ground zero mosque to be built in Nevada?

Now that Senator Reid has heroically announced that he doesn’t think this community center that will include a prayer room should be built in lower Manhattan, Republican attacks against Democrats for being insufficiently anti-Muslim will never happen again, and angry white people will love Barack Obama.

  1. Like most Senators
    Reid is a jerk,
    What is there about him that makes him an authority
    on anything ??

    Would you buy a used scam from him ?

    Has anybody else noticed that they will let anyone
    in the Senate provided they are petty & ” cooperative ” ?

    and don’t mind lying to you about anything,
    their just there for the ride,
    they are always confident about any decision
    because they couldn’t care less,duh :) :) :) :)

  2. The old divisive issues, like gay marriage and flag burning, have been given a rest while the scumbags who don’t want to talk about real issues, like what in the hell are we doing in Afghanistan and why is our economy falling apart, have a place to run and hide behind.
