I just wanted to make sure, but you guys are against the building of the mosque in theory only, right? I mean obviously it is insensitive, especially to those that view the entire religion as enemies of the State (which imo is plain wrong), but what I find hard to believe is that republicans and conservatives are actually expecting the government to step in and infringe on their personal and civil rights, acting the very role they claim they are wholeheartedly against.

It is a damn stupid idea to build the mosque, but if we ever hope to hold any moral high ground in the near future, we need to stfu about it and move on. Besides, it's like 10 blocks away from Ground Zero anyways, i bet there are mosques within that radius already, what's one more?
