Not strange at all, it is just another Democrat birth.

Why would anyone want to watch internetto being born?

This Pam Geller asshole is one of the slimiest right-wingrrrrrrs in America
 
 
That's an accomplishment

[captain_kook]

Here's a timeline of how it all happened:
•Dec. 8, 2009: The New York Times publishes a lengthy front-page
look at the Cordoba project. "We want to push back
against the extremists," Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the
lead organizer, is quoted as saying.

Two Jewish leaders
and two city officials, including the mayor's office,
say they support the idea, as does the mother of a man
killed on 9/11.

An FBI spokesman says the imam has
worked with the bureau.

Besides a few third-tier right
-wing blogs, including Pamela Geller's Atlas Shrugs
site, no one much notices the Times story.
 
 
•Dec. 21, 2009: Conservative media personality Laura
Ingraham interviews Abdul Rauf's wife, Daisy Khan,
while guest-hosting "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox. In
hindsight, the segment is remarkable for its
cordiality. "I can't find many people who really have a
problem with it," Ingraham says of the Cordoba project,
adding at the end of the interview, "I like what you're
trying to do."

This segment also includes onscreen the first use that
we've seen of the misnomer "ground zero mosque.") After
the segment — and despite the front-page Times story —
there were no news articles on the mosque for five and
a half months, according to a search of the Nexis
newspaper archive.



•May 6, 2010: After a unanimous vote by a New York City
community board committee to approve the project, the
AP runs a story. It quotes relatives of 9/11 victims
(called by the reporter), who offer differing opinions.


The New York Post, meanwhile, runs a story under the
inaccurate headline, "Panel Approves 'WTC' Mosque."




Geller is less subtle, titling her post that day,
"Monster Mosque Pushes Ahead in Shadow of World Trade
Center Islamic Death and Destruction."



She writes on
her Atlas Shrugs blog, "This is Islamic domination and
expansionism. The location is no accident. Just as Al-
Aqsa was built on top of the Temple in Jerusalem." (To
get an idea of where Geller is coming from, she once
suggested that Malcolm X was Obama's real father.
Seriously.)
 
 
keeeep goin:

[captain_kook]

•May 7, 2010: Geller's group, Stop Islamization of
America (SIOA), launches "Campaign Offensive: Stop the
911 Mosque!" (SIOA 's associate director is Robert
Spencer, who makes his living writing and speaking
about the evils of Islam.)
 
 
 
Geller posts the names and
contact information for the mayor and members of the
community board, encouraging people to write. The board
chair later reports getting "hundreds and hundreds" of
calls and e-mails from around the world.
 
 
•May 8, 2010: Geller announces SIOA's first protest
against what she calls the "911 monster mosque" for May
29. She and Spencer and several other members of the
professional anti-Islam industry will attend. (She also
says that the protest will mark the dark day of "May
29, 1453, [when] the Ottoman forces led by the Sultan
Mehmet II broke through the Byzantine defenses against
the Muslim siege of Constantinople."
 
 
The outrage-peddling New York Post columnist Andrea Peyser argues
in a note at the end of her column a couple of days
later that "there are better places to put a mosque."
 
 
•May 13, 2010: Peyser follows up with an entire column
devoted to "Mosque Madness at Ground Zero." This is a
significant moment in the development of the "ground
zero mosque" narrative: It's the first newspaper
article that frames the project as inherently wrong and
suspect, in the way that Geller has been framing it for
months.
 
 
Peyser in fact quotes Geller at length and
promotes the anti-mosque protest of Stop Islamization
of America, which Peyser describes as a "human-rights
group."
 
 
 
Peyser also reports — falsely — that Cordoba
House's opening date will be Sept. 11, 2011.
 
 
 
Lots of opinion makers on the right read the Post, so
it's not surprising that, starting that very day, the
mosque story spread through the conservative — and then
mainstream — media like fire through dry grass.
 
 
 
Geller appeared on Sean Hannity's radio show.
 
 
 
The Washington Examiner ran an outraged column about honoring the 9/11
dead.
 
 
So did Investor's Business Daily.
 
 
Smelling blood, the Post assigned news reporters to cover the ins and
outs of the Cordoba House development daily.
 
 
 
Fox News, the Post's television sibling, went all out.
 
 
 
Within a month, Rudy Giuliani had called the mosque a
"desecration."
 
 
 
Within another month, Sarah Palin had
tweeted her famous "peaceful Muslims, pls refudiate"
tweet.
 
 
Peter King and Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty
followed suit — with political reporters and television
news programs dutifully covering "both sides" of the
controversy.
 
 
 
Geller had succeeded beyond her wildest dreams.

As she is a New Yorker who attends many hearings and follows these Islamic radicals very closely, I hold her opinion and accuracy above most. She is a fervent supporter of her city and does not want to see sacred ground, two blocks away or not, smeared with the shit stain that is radical Islam.
 
Personally, I see all religion as a convenient excuse to wage hatred, war, genocide, and all the other bad shit humans do against other humans.
 
ANOTHER mosque in NYC is totally unnecessary, unless you are looking to inundate the city with as many muslims as possible. The fallout will follow soon after when these "peaceful" muslims start shattering windows of nearby synagogues etc. The streets of NYC will resemble Paris of recent note with muslims burning cars and attacking the many jews that call NYC home.
 
Just a matter of time.

[captain_kook]

of COURSE you buy her steaming pile of shit and swallow it with gusto
 
enjoy

[lakitss]

And you OTOH, will villify her efforts along with others who are just "not as smart" as you are in the truly self absorbed, sanctimonious liberal brainfucked mentality that is infecting this great country.
 
All this tolerance, embracing diversity, and political correctness is eroding any and all of the values this nation was supposed to be founded upon. We simply can't have discord among the devout followers of Obama/muslims/liberals/whale savers/tree huggers/socialists in America.
 
Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.
 
(In this case, you will be infiltrated).
