Obama Forcefully Endorsed Allowing a Mosque Near Ground Zero
Obama Says He Supports Ground Zero Mosque While Celebrating Islamic Holy Month Of Ramadan!
Obama backs mosque near ground zero
Washington
Barack Obama on Friday forcefully endorsed allowing a mosque near ground zero, saying the country's founding principles demanded no less.
"As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country," Obama said, weighing in for the first time on a controversy that has riven New York City and the nation.
"That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances," he said. "This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable."
Obama made the comments at an annual dinner in the White House State Dining Room celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
The White House had not previously taken a stand on the mosque, which would be part of a $100 million Islamic center two blocks from where nearly 3,000 people perished when hijacked jetliners slammed into the World Trade Center towers on Sept. 11, 2001. Press secretary Robert Gibbs had insisted it was a local matter.
It was already much more than that, sparking debate around the country as top Republicans including Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich announced their opposition. So did the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights group.
Obama elevated it to a presidential issue Friday without equivocation.

Wild Thing's comment..........
Go BACK to Hell where you belong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He does all he can to distance himself and the country from Christianity and does all he can to promote Islam.
As Rush pointed out, this isn’t a First Amendment issue.
The Constitution only grants the ability to practice religion—not the right to build a church or a mosque wherever you want. There are a lot of mosques already in NYC for the jihadists to worship in.
In other words Obama wants a victory monument erected praising the death of over Americans.
And I suppose he will be a frequent visitor there later on with intention of performing an Islamic prayer.
Also were his very words saying the call to prayer is “the most beautiful sound on earth”, and I presume there may be some loudspeakers with a daily Manhattan “Call to Islamic prayer”.
If not according to the laws of treason its at the very least totally wrong for a President to condone a foreign nations victory upon US soil.
Obama hates America and his doing his utmost along with the Democrat Party to destroy America. He cares not one bit about all those innocents that died on 9/11/2001, He cares not one iota for the innocents, for the police, for the firemen, for the first responders, for the Whites, the Blacks, the Hispanics, the Asians, scores of foreign people, for the poor souls onboard the doomed aircraft. He cares only for the Muslim suicide pilots that violated and destroyed so many American and Foreign innocent lives.
George W. Bush - 9/11 Bullhorn Speech ....NOTE to Obama and his America hating voters ....NO teleprompter you freakazoid Muslim POS Obama!

I don't care what that son of bitchs say: Wright, Ayers or obama or any other commie loving bastards say ...WE DID NOT DESERVE THE GUTLESS ATTACK ON INNOCENT CIVILIANS.
3000 Americans have been slaughtered without a chance to even fight back(flt-93 excluded because they discovered when it was already too late but they fought to the death) by these cowardly bastards,( they are gutless, they hide behind women and children set booby-traps but won't come out and fight like men, which is ok our troops can handle that) and these are the gutless pukes obama defends. Now he is pissing on the graves of these American heroes who died for nothing more than going to work and being an American. Obama is no American he can not relate to what this country is about, obama wouldn't make a pimple on an Americans Ass, he spits in our faces and expects us to sit back and take it. Congress is gutless too, they can't even muster one cajone among them to tell obama. NO this is America and our people come first not the f king muslims.
Obama is a liar, there are no moderate muslims, they have contributed NOTHING to the good of this country, they have done nothing but take. They know now they have a willing asshole in the white house who will suck them off just for being muslims. It would not be a surprise if this useful idiot paid for that goddam mosk with our money at ground zero this is a disgrace to their memory.
How did this despicable bastard get into the United States in the first place.
We need leaders with a spine.
