I watched some of the Sunday morning shows and shouldn't be at all surprised but I was, this week tipped the scales and I had to write:Did YOU know that anyone against the mosque is just a 'CABLE TV' nut who doesn't understand that CABLE TV is "just using the mosque situation for ratings"?
Did you know that, according to Fareed Zakaria, that he had an "intelligent and informed" discussion re the mosque, unlike "the screaming and misinformation on CABLE TV?" ( I guess he didn't notice CNN is CABLE, too, huh? Or that that "cable TV" station has BOTH sides represented...I'm not sure CNN even knows HOW to do that?)
Did you know this mosque controversy just 'Fits the ARGUMENT CULTURE of CABLE TV", according to Margaret Carlson on Howard Kurtz's show which is also ON "CABLE TV"!? (but that 'argument culture' isn't HIM, of course!)
Did you know they're not calling it a mosque anymore but an "Islamic Center with a 'prayer room'"? That was Fareed Zakaria but it's the new leftwing meme this morning on all the leftwing news now.
Did you know there are also those on "the other CABLE TV" "news" who are now comparing one prayer room at the Pentagon to the 13 story islamic culture center and mosque near 9/11? "How COULD the Right approve the Pentagon's prayer room and be so angry at THIS project in NYC?!" :-)
Did you know that CAIR and other advocates (media, etc.) have given up the moniker CORDOBA INITIATIVE because, well heck, the last time there was a Cordoba Initiative was in Spain in the year 711 and the initiative worked in converting Spaniards to Islam, killing Christians to achieve that goal, we can't have people remembering THAT, so now it's referred by the Park51 name.
Did you realize all of that? Or are you just too stupid, as the leftwing press suggests?
CABLE TV is now the buzzword for FOX, check it out; that's been what the leftwing news now refers to FOX as. Maybe they're so bugged by FOX's ratings that they won't say FOX anymore? Just a guess on my part because CABLE TV has been said over the last couple of weeks, and was said so much Sunday morning so much, with the very clear inferences to FOX, that it got me giggling!
Also, according to Juan Williams, "the RIGHTWING is just Politicizing" the situation of the mosque. He says it's only Sarah Palin and Gingrich who've led people into not wanting the mosque there, that Harry Reid and Howard Dean are only complaining of the location. Oops, wait, that's what Palin and Gingrich are complaining about, but facts won't get in ol' Juan's way.
I have not seen ONE Conservative or Liberal use LEGALITY as a reason to stop the mosque; anybody older than 4 years old knows it's perfectly within any religion's right to build a house of worship on any land they own and I'm really getting tired of this being used as the red herring excuse by the leftwingers. This is NOT about LEGALITIES, this is about DECENCY, the FEELINGS OF SURVIVING FAMILY MEMBERS.... including ALL of us in the family of America. Yet, no matter how much Conservatives say that, the leftwing just keeps up the ridiculous red herring, just keep blowing the smoke, keep the masses dumb and hating the Right.
BUT, you see, we're all BIGOTS who watch too much CABLE TV and should understand that no muslims wish us harm and the Imam is a wonderful man whom our government trusts and we've all just got to get over it, folks. BUT, even liberal columnist Judith Miller asks "Why is nobody at the White House responding to my questions of why this Imam has been sent to Europe, to the tune of $16,000...why can't we know what he's doing there?" Indeed, why don't we? The left's waking up. Some of them. Of course, the timing of this Imam's trip could not have been better...get him out of town NOW, he won't have to answer questions, and make sure muslims throughout the world know we are SO SO SORRY. (about...?)
THE MOSQUE is being used against the RIGHT now, folks....Calls of rightwing RACISM didn't work, the harangue of "Republicans want to get rid of your social security" didn't work........and the mosque situation is mostly backfiring, too, becaus
e of "CABLE TV" God bless Cable TV....at least the FOX part of it. Sure, we all know lots of Independents depend on liberal news for REAL news and they probably do think this drive against the mosque is all a rightwing conspiracy, but most people are waking up, don't you think?I'm TIRED of apologizing for watching the only cable TV with all sides constantly represented. I'm tired of being made to feel they're right and we are wrong. I'm tired of the demeaning...are you? It's EVERYWHERE...misinformation, insults, demeaning language..........
Last week, I was involved in an email conversation about the mosque between some people who don't know each other but got sent a lot of information from a friend in common. Suddenly, a leftwinger ended it be emailing all on the list that "FOX is for SHEEPLE and we need to educate ourselves. FOX is entertainment." Where do they GET OFF? I can't imagine the hubris of writing everyone, conservatives and liberals, what I think of CNN and MSNBC, and all the networks..I'd just never DO that.
Monday, Rick Sanchez on CNN asked a correspondent about Arizona's JD Hayworth..."he is SO STUPID" He got a BIG laugh fromSanchez and the RICK'S LIST crew behind the cameras......"Ya, I AGREE!!" Sanchez guffaws back. I've never heard anybody on FOX call anybody STUPID. But, FOX is the bigoted, unkind, biased reportage.???
When did the whole Right side of America become QUITE so reviled, quite so written off?
This is a new America. We are to believe in OBAMA and his form of governance...we are to believe people cannot make it on their own, we are to believe that the Constitution is a work in progress and, if the left doesn't like it, it's ignored, we're to believe that little fish come before human beings, that killing babies is a right, that changing marriage so two men can wed after thousands of years is a good idea, that Christian are nothing but bigots and hate mongers.............
We are to believe WE ARE WRONG......IF YOU ARE A CONSERVATIVE, YOU ARE WRONG....taught in our schools, constantly in print and the television networks and every film and TV show which bothers to mention politics, in every social controversy, in everything........YOU ARE WRONG.
What do we do? The rightwing gets pretty vociferous, too, but they just can't be right because Ann Coulter has a prickly edge, Rush Limbaugh can be a blowhard, Hannity is stupid, Glenn Beck's overly emotional and wrong, ...you know the drill. They set it UP, people......they set it up where anything the Right does is WRONG now. YOU know it, I know it.
SO, what do we do? Tell me. Thanks...

Why shouldn't they call it a cultural center? There are already three mosques in the general area and a cultural center would fit the needs of the Muslim population.
Did you know that the second largest shareholder in Fox is the same Saudi sheik whose 20 million dollar gift after 9/11 was turned down by Giuliani?
Fun fact.
Let's see.
We're seeing Fox demonized, Sarah Palin demonized, etc. Indeed, the right is being demonized overall -- and marginalized.
The only sources those leaning left and sitting on the far left will accept are those sources complicit in covering up the truth.
Ducky will be by to call you a bigot in 3...2...1...
Or make fun of Beck. He likes that.
Oh, see? I got here and got called away from the computer, and here's DUCKY! LOL!
Z,
Ready to have a meltdown? Read THIS.
What we do now, is nothing different than what we have been doing. We shouldn't be defensive, or back away from what we believe.
That's what the left wants. We have to remain consistent, and determined. We know what to expect from the other side and none of what they're doing is a surprise.
We have to be who we are, and we believe we are right, and the reason we believe that is because we love our country. The left doesn't.
We have to be true to ourselves.
Pris
Hey, Ducks, Beck is on right now. Just played some rants of Howdy-Doody's fave ''preacher''. Thought you might want to know, as I know you won't want to miss it. You know, the ones about damning this country. the ones that Howdy sat through for 20 years but never heard. Must have been snoring.
Silvrlady
Christian teacher fired for writing song-???
was bill ayers ever fired for his terror activities--opps no-he became a professor!!
We have been too nice and continuously worried about what the Dark Side (lucifer's staff) says and thinks about us--
brings to mind the old adage-'sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me' the reason they hurt now is because we let them (the nasty names that is)
just posted the above fired teacher's song via video-it's cool!! :-)
Ducky, who said anything against calling it a cultural center?
Yes, we all know about the Saudis owning so much of FOX. For now, it's the only game in town for honesty, so that's what most Americans are finally turning to.
AOW, I had heard that we can be sued for linking articles from other sites, too..I can't imagine that's a problem when we always credit the writer, but the left's so upset that we still have the internet they'll stop at nothing.
So, we can't call anybody a JERK? When Rick Sanchez can call a politician STUPID on CNN? WHAT?
it'll get worse...the left will stop at nothing.
Pris, all of us who have bloggers have to worry, see AOW's link. This is getting more and more widespread and some of us know bloggers who've disappeared and I don't think they just got bored.
We're speaking and fighting in the only way we know how and THANK GOD many people are waking up, altho I really don't think bloggers our size contribute much to that.
SilvrLady...did you see that 2004 interview I published a few days ago of Obama saying what great friends he is with Wright and Pfleger? ALl there.....snoring my (#@*$&(*#&
Carol, good..it needs to be heard!
Progressives and Liberals not allowed to watch.
They fought for You
duhkkkky, you complained of limbaugh but even he has said they have a legal right to build it...I haven't heard anyone against it complain that the Muslims do not have the right to build it
but compare and contrast
Cartoons depicting Mohammed with a bomb on his head results in dozens dead and the artist threatened
yet we're the insenstitive ones because we wish them to find somewhere else to build the 'cultural center' because of sensitivities to those who died
no car bombs or riots....
We can see November from here.
What else should we expect, Z? Sigh...
we just need to 'get over it'.
this is the same Rick Sanchez who's responsible for the drunk driving injury and death of a pedestrian
Hey remember that time Rick Sanchez was driving drunk, hit a guy, and then left the scene for two hours?
Minutes after midnight on the morning of December 10, 1990, an intoxicated Smuzinick darted out in front of a Volvo on a residential street near Joe Robbie Stadium. The driver of the car, WSVN-TV Channel 7 anchorman Rick Sanchez, became the subject of a subsequent January 16 New Times story that described the odd circumstances of the accident. Sanchez, whom a Metro-Dade police officer said “smelled strongly of alcohol,” first stopped his car but then later left the scene. A blood test to determine Sanchez’s sobriety was not administered until an hour and fifteen minutes after the collision. Though Sanchez says he tried to aid Smuzinick at the scene of the accident and flag down motorists, eyewitnesses claim the anchorman ignored the injured man and loudly told police and bystanders that blood tests were pointless, and would hurt his public image.
Why did Sanchez leave the scene? To try to get the alcohol out of his system calm his nerves:
His attorney, Richard Essen, now says the anchorman returned home and had “a couple of drinks to calm his nerves” before returning to the scene. Essen doubts that Sanchez’s DUI charge will ever come to trial. “I think the results of the blood tests will be thrown out,” the lawyer says. “If the results of the blood tests are suppressed, then there is no evidence against him at all. The state cannot proceed.”
Sanchez offered ZERO financial aid, and did not even bother visiting the man he left paralyzed…
Though Smuzinick’s health insurance policy covers most of his medical costs, it doesn’t pay for rehabilitative care. Family members say unpaid bills for physical therapy now total about $81,000. To save money, they have removed Smuzinick from the clinic’s head-injury program. Using videotapes to learn therapy techniques, friends, relatives, and former co-workers have begun to provide a semblance of the rehabilitation program they can’t afford.
One friend of the family, Kelli Crist, has distributed flyers describing the accident involving Smuzinick and Sanchez. The flyers list Crist’s phone number (680-2741) and request donations to help pay for treatment and therapy. So far the fund-raising effort has not gone well.
“Nobody seems to be interested,” Crist says.
Smuzinick’s fiancee, Jackie Stringhill, says it’s just as well that Sanchez hasn’t paid a visit to Smuzinick since the accident. “I guess his attitude bothers a lot of people. But we have enough to think about. We have our hands full. We don’t really talk about the accident much any more. Anyway,” she adds resignedly, “as far as Sanchez goes, what goes around comes around.
Jeffrey Smuzinick died on November 2, 1995, largely due to the injuries he suffered in the accident.
Elmbro, "get over it" was even less offensive than his attitude on so many other things, ...what a terrible person. He had a thick accent but he sure has learned the liberal talking points, huh? Then he calls that pretty great woman talking with him a RACIST?
Man, Americans can just do NOTHING right anymore, huh? He tagged Vietnam, slavery, etc etc..
MAN.
As for Sanchez, have you watched him for ten minutes? Astonishingly smug and SO belittling...Oh, ya,, "JD HAYWORTH is just SO STUPID" HA HA HAA!! And he's fine with that but as AOW's link says "Bloggers could be brought up on charges for calling someone a jerk!"? WHAT IS THAT?!!
WOW, Jan...that's quite a screed...I'm so sorry about that.
What NERVE, and your blog was always so well thought out and RIGHT.
well...you can see that this is getting on my nerves, that's for sure.
We have to fight this. Imagine an America where half the peoples' opinions are disregarded and mocked and lied about by our PRESIDENT and his thug/media? WOW.
Z, I read the bloggers beware article and it seem designed to scare us, but I have always been careful not to say things I could not back up. And we are allowed to express opinions about public figures and politicians. So blah to them. Blah blah blah blah ( more blather at my blog ;-))
Nice post Z,
I see you even have a resident troll? For the Duck, sure its "culture" ... from about 6 or 700 AD I think. The GZM imam and CAIR all promote Shariah law. Here's the quick list of what that means. I'm sure the Duck will LOVE living by these rules, eh?
(from the authoritative source Reliance of the Traveller, The Sacred Manual of Islamic Law)
1.Requirement of women to obtain permission from husbands for daily freedoms;
2.Beating of disobedient woman and girls;
3.Execution of homosexuals;
4.Engagement of polygamy and forced child marriages;
5.Requirement of the testimony of four male witnesses to prove rape;
6.Stoning of adulteresses;
7.Lashing of adulterers;
8.Amputation of body for criminal offenses;
9.Female genital mutilation;
10.Capital punishment for those who slander or insult Islam;
11.Execution of apostates, or those that leave the religion of Islam
12.Inferior status for all non-Muslims, known as Dhimmitude.
13.Concept of Taquiyya: A Muslim may lie or deceive others to advance the cause of Islam.
Sure, not all Muslims are plane-crashing, self-exploding, child-stoning or wife-beheading terrorists, but all of these acts are actually promoted in the LAW these types of Muslims follow.
Bottom line: Shariah & barbarism isn't compatible with the Western world. (p.s. it is 2010 not 700)
... interesting details HERE, too:

If I'm a "bigot" because I want to keep my head, so be it.
This is a new America..scarey stuff Z!
I'm sure that this information will be demonized too. **sigh**
When you can't argue the facts, impugn the motives of your opponent...
Wanna see what the religion of peace is like!

Using the mosque situation for ratings?
Just wait 'til were using it for target practice.
"There are already three mosques in the general area and a cultural center would fit the needs of the Muslim population."
How big is the muslim population in Lower Manhattan, Ducky?
"If sensitivity were the issue here, it would be far more incumbent on Muslims to show sensitivity to 3,000 American dead than for Americans to show sensitivity to a grandiose Muslim building project in a part of America where there is no Muslim community. Think about it. In every culture, respect for the dead is a basic value. And those who do not respect the dead of another people similarly show that they do not respect the living. That matter of disrespect to Americans, both living and dead, has sharpened the situation. And all the doubletalk in the world from Park51 won’t change that. And if the situation were reversed, and an American church was being built in a damaged building in Afghanistan, near a spot where thousands had died in Coalition bombings, there is no doubt whatsoever whose side the New York Times editorial would come out on. But that’s because like Imam Rauf, the Times staffers respect Muslim dead, just not American dead."

AOW, yes, we'll be demonized for even mentioning it.."What's WRONG for a muslim to give Obama speech input, you a bigot?" "What's wrong with you people, he's a good man.."
Never mind that the media's covering what he's said, except for FOX, which is also demonized for TRUTH.
Woman: It is a new America and I never thought I'd see this day.
As I've said before, the very fact that there are so many Americans who don't UNDERSTAND that this mosque is an affront to decency is so far beyond my wildest imagination. Then, like Joe the Conservative suggests, we're suddenly BIGOTS for asking for DECENCY.
But, of course, come to think of it, there are several subjects in which we're demonized for just asking for decency these days.
Beamish, great line. Sounds like they might not get it built with so many contractors refusing to work on it, but I'm guessing Saudi Arabia will give the Imam so much money they'll be shipping people in from Muslim countries to do the work. Wait for it.
Malcontent; maybe later, thanks. There are some days I just can't take anymore, you know?
Waylon, Canada gets it, Europe gets it, why can't Americans get it?
I know liberal scum will never learn and will always fall back on smearing and lying, i just hope the ordinary folks out there see islam and it's leftist bitches for what they are.
MK, this country's media is in overdrive protecting Muslims and indicting US..no way, give the hope up. ALTHOUGH, a lot of VERY good people understand that this is the most insensitive thing that could happen to NYC and our country...that's for sure. The media paints them (us) as bigots. The new America sucks.
