EH> RS>>>>>>>>> The New York City landmarks
commission decided this week
EH> EH>> to EH>>>> act RC>> in the RS>
interest of New Yorkers rather
EH> EH>>than >> out-of-state RC>>>> conservative
pundits RS> and voted
EH> EH>>to clear  the RC>>>>>> way for the
construction of an Islamic
EH>center RS> in  RC>>>>>>>> lower Manhattan,
a few blocks from the site
EH>where the World  EH>> Trade RS>>>>>>> that
this site of A

EH> RC>>>>>>>> It is unacceptable to alot of people...

EH> RS>>>>>>> Not "a lot of people."
EH> RS>>>>>>> A few bigots.

EH> EH>>>>>> The majority of America is against the
Mosque. Are the
EH> EH>>>>>> majority of America "a few bigots?"

EH> RS>>>>>>> Like "American Family
Association's" Brian Fischer, who
EH> RS>>>>>>> wants to ban *ALL* mosques and Muslim
buildings in the US.
EH> RS>>>>>>> Period.

EH> EH>>>>>> You point to one small group and then try
to paint anyone
EH> EH>>>>>> and everyone with the same brush.

EH> JB>>>>> The left and its lemming followers are on the
wrong side of
EH> JB>>>>> the mainstream public on almost every major
issue today.
EH> JB>>>>> This will be evident in November.

EH> EH>>>> Indeed it will. There is a good possibility that the
EH> EH>>>> Republicans will also take the Senate.

EH> JB>>> Perhaps. Just realize the game here may be that the Dems are
EH> JB>>> happy with the gains they have made on their social/socialist
EH> JB>>> the agenda and now want republcians to take over so that they
EH> JB>>> the can blame them for the mess next two years. THus helping
EH> JB>>> BO get re-elected. Don't put anything past these folks on the
EH> JB>>> left. They cannot be trusted and must be defeated, each and
EH> JB>>> every day.

EH> EH>> They'll blame the Republicans no matter who controls Congress
EH> EH>> or the WH. I don't think BHO can triangulate like Clinton did
EH> EH>> and pull himself out of his steady decline in the polls.

EH> EH>> That said, I'm not all that happy with the current Repubs in
EH> EH>> Congress since most of them seem to be socialist light.

EH> JB> Good point. They'll blame us regardless so might as well be in
EH> JB> charge vs. not, if we are going to get blamed anyway.

EH>Term limits for Congress would go a long way to correcting the idea
EH>that Congress can do anything it wants. Repealing the 17th Amendment
EH>is another good idea. Senators are supposed to represent the STATE
EH>not the people, so it is rediculous to have the people elect them
EH>outright. It was the progressives under Wilson who came up with the
EH>17th. They knew it would lead to more federal control and a larger
EH>central government.

I am fine repealing the 17th amendment.  Take the 16th along with it.
