In today's New York Times there is an article about the lovely and demented Rick Lazio who has finally found an issue with some legs he can run on for governor of New York, the Ground Zero Mosque. He's against it of course.
Why are the right wingers so successful at finding these hot button issues that are so hard to disagree with? Should these people build their community center here? No. No. A thousand times no!
Do they have the right? Yes! Because we have this silly little thing in our constitution called freedom of religion.
I wish we could get over 9/11. Not forget it, just get over it. But there are too many people who can still reap a political benefit from it to let us heal those wounds. They prefer to leave the sores open so people forget the real issues in a campaign, Issues that matter to people. That way you have a better chance of getttng people to vote against their own interests, don't you Mr. Lazio
