Herman Cain, supposed defender of the U.S. Constitution, told Fox News this morning that American communities have the right to ban mosques.
Like I said Friday, Cain has proved himself to be no better than a David Duke or a Lester Maddox. His campaign was never going anywhere and had already peaked. Now he’s in the process of throwing away whatever reputation his brief moment in the sunshine might have brought him.
UPDATE: It should be noted that at least some conservatives understand the issues at stake here and understand the dangers and repugnance of what Cain has said.
At RedState, a poster by the name of T Christopher, apparently a once-fervent Cain supporter, writes, among other things:
“I know the Cain defenders will be out in full force and I’m sure my previous support for Mr. Cain will be washed away with the fact that I am so absolutely appalled by his Sunday remarks. I’m also very aware that sites like HuffPo and ThinkProgress will probably be the only places where I will find anyone who agrees with me; or at least will be willing to share their views. I get that; and I’m fine with that. Bring on the RINO assaults.
Despite that, I share this story and my thoughts with you without reservation, because last I checked it was among the many causes of conservatism to defend religion from all who would aim to do it harm; to uphold the Constitution and defend the First Amendment. Did I miss something? Did someone float around a memo addressing the change in our ideology and leave me off the distribution list?
Is Islam not a religion? If a “community” can tell a group of Muslims that they cannot construct a mosque, could another community not deny a group of Catholics the opportunity to construct a church? Could a community of atheists not deny all individuals the right to construct any places of worship?
… I am sincerely disappointed that Mr. Cain has decided to take his campaign in this direction. He has not only lost my support, he has now, regrettably, also lost my respect.”
Good for him.

My Christian friends have told me, point blank, how the ministers and pastors in their churches often include anti-semitic remarks in their sermons: The Jews killed Jesus … the Jews will all need to return to Israel and die before the true Messiah will come … Jews are inferior to Christians — you know, stupid, hate-filled stuff.
Yes, despite this hate-speech that goes on in churches throughout the country, they are not disallowed. Further, right here in our own Sandy Springs, a Church of Scientology building was not allowed to open based on a parking technicality, as a result of hate-mongers who spread lies about Scientology amongst the neighbors.
Herman, you, too are spreading hate speech and lies. Yes, terrorists and terrorism do exist, but doesn’t give us the right to scrap freedom of religion, one of the key foundations of American life and what separates our great land from the dictatorships and fascist countries around the world.
Think, Herman, think…

The Constitution does a pretty thorough job of that.
I know. Maybe it’s the community’s fear of giving an inch. The need to push back.
Some American mosques could use a little push back….especially from American converts of the female persuasion.
<a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2010/05/17/showdown-at-the-mosque.html"We began our fight in February by challenging the segregation at the Islamic Center of Washington, a mosque with close ties to the Saudis and the strict Wahhabi ideology of Islam. But ever since I moved to the Washington, D.C., area in 2007, I have wanted to attend “the 9/11 mosque,” in order to better understand what it preaches. I was afraid, but I overcame my hesitation after organizer Fatima Thompson, a convert living in the area, pulled together a group of women activists using Facebook.
Read Asra Nomani’s report of an earlier mosque protest at the Washington Islamic Center The angry, violent response we received at the Virginia mosque is indicative of how threatened some men are by the presence of women in “their” space.
And the women shall lead.

The News of the World allegedly hacked into the mobile phones of Jude Law and his personal assistant while they were in New York, opening the way for News International to be prosecuted in the United States.
In the first specific example of a case of hacking on US soil, it has emerged that the actor and his assistant, Ben Jackson, were allegedly targeted shortly after arriving at New York’s JFK airport.
Their mobile telephones were operating on American networks, meaning that regardless of where the alleged hacker was based, American law would apply.
It would leave News International open to claims that it broke US federal laws and also pave the way for costly lawsuits.

Befitting his siege mentality, Ailes also housed his newsroom in a bunker. Reporters and producers at Fox News work in a vast, windowless expanse below street level, a gloomy space lined with video-editing suites along one wall and an endless cube farm along the other. In a separate facility on the same subterranean floor, Ailes created an in-house research unit – known at Fox News as the “brain room” – that requires special security clearance to gain access. “The brain room is where Willie Horton comes from,” says Cooper, who helped design its specs. “It’s where the evil resides.”

There is a big difference between living in a country where freedom of religion is respected and revered versus living in a country that has an established or recognized State religion. As you can see, Egypt falls in line with countries that recognize Islam as the official State religion. Therefore, no other religions would be respected, established or allowed. That’s why there are no churches, synagogues, or temples there. Only the uninformed, uneducated, or blissfully ignorant would try to equate or compare a country with no established State religion to one that has an official religion.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_religion
Currently, the following religions are recognized as state religions in some countries: some form of Christianity, Islam and Buddhism.
[...]
Muslim countriesMain articles: Political aspects of Islam, Sharia, Caliphate, Religious police, and Islamism

Your mouth to G-d’s ears…
“But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of
the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.”

Despite that, I share this story and my thoughts with you without reservation, because last I checked it was among the many causes of conservatism to defend religion from all who would aim to do it harm; to uphold the Constitution and defend the First Amendment. Did I miss something? Did someone float around a memo addressing the change in our ideology and leave me off the distribution list?
Poor guy. Guess he didn’t get the memo.
That ‘conservativism’ is long gone.

Go to the sites dealing with Kurdish Jews…I think you may be surprized, and while you’re at it, check out who’s been invited to do the memorial to the victims of the genocide against the Kurds…google is your friend…

@Doggone – please learn the proper use of “your” and “you’re.” You have no credibility with bad grammar, poor spelling and punctuation, “sport.” While YOU’RE at it, please learn how to spell the word, Constitution.

I have no problem with that particularly, these are public buildings to serve the public and if the space is available and the space is rent to those organizations…of course, I am inclined to see it on a temporary basis as the congregation is in the process or organizing and finding a permanent spot…
