#1 I don't trust this doubletalking liar either. He and his Islamo-sycophants are due for an electorate whooping

#3 Two points:

With this statement Obama took ownership of this specific project, connected himself to this specific Imam. That's likely a big mistake.

Obama stated, adding that "this is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable."

This is an obvious and unnecessary lie. If "religious freedom" was that important to this administration it would not be an ally/protector/sponsor of regimes like the Saudi Entity or the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.

#5 "this is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable."

Except in the cultural wars to keep mangers off the city square for generations, where teachers are admonished for wearing a small cross on a necklace, where the Supreme Court under a mural which includes a depiction of Moses and the 10 Commandants routinely has denied the public portray of one of the foundations of Western Law, etc, etc, etc. The Elitist mantra - one set of rules for me, another set of rules for thee. Tell them knuckle draggin', Bible thumpin', gun tottin' bigots to back off. /sarc off

#6 The fifth column frames this discussion around religious freedom. They know that US law will not allow that freedom to be eroded. However, it isn't about religious freedom at all.

It is about an ideology, a political system, painted over with the veneer of a religion, that, having won what was by their standards a notable victory, now wants a memorial to that victory. They want bragging rights.

A better response would be to say, "Islamists, this is a propaganda ploy. Piss off".

A longer version, more suited to a presidential speech, might be; "To any muslims out there who think, like we do, that the mass murder on 9/11 was cowardly and utterly without honour, you are free to express you religion within the law and I am sworn to defend the constitution that gives you that freedom. To islamists, and to any other muslims that see 9/11 as a victory, and so want to build a memorial to your side, at this place, at this time, I say to you that you have no decency. You have two choices. Recant, or fill your hands you sons of bitches"

#12 Got it in one, Besoeker. The Great Mosque of Cordoba was built over the Church of St. Vincent to celebrate the Islamic victory over the infidel in Cordoba.
