Yeah, I stole the new name from Jim Treacher. But, hey, I wonder if Pelosi wants Harry Reid investigated? Wouldn’t that be a hoot?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, called for an investigation of those who are protesting the building of the Ground Zero Mosque on Tuesday. She told San Francisco’s KCBS radio:

“There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded,” she said. “How is this being ginned up that here we are talking about Treasure Island, something we’ve been working on for decades, something of great interest to our community as we go forward to an election about the future of our country and two of the first three questions are about a zoning issue in New York City.”
So, now is the time to step up, Liberals, and put your money where your mouth is. One of your talking points is that those who are against the Cordoba Initiative are violating the 1st Amendment by calling for the government to stop it from being built, despite the fact that 99.99% of those against the mosque have repeatedly stated that they have every Constitutional Right to build it, not to mention property rights, but, they should really reconsider building it there for many reasons, and that government should not get involved. Yet, here you have Pelosi, the Speaker of the House, third in the line of presidential succession, calling for the government to investigate those engaged in Constitutionally protected Free Speech.
Will you stand up and denounce Pelosi? Will the ACLU? Any other left wing Rights groups? There is no quibbling here, Liberal Cordoba supperters: will you stand by Pelosi, or stand by the 1st? Choose.

Crossed at Right Wing News and Stop The ACLU
The Victory Mosque is just the visible tip of a very large iceberg. Beneath the surface of Western societies, Muslims are waging a campaign of infiltration, subversion, sedition and social sabotage, with the objective of destroying our countries and way of life from within.

C’mon Teach, you know that according to the left, the only “Constitutionally protected speech” is that with which they agree.
I’m wondering if ‘lil LIAR johnnie ryan supports the rebuilding of a Catholic church in the same area, which was destroyed when the buidlings fell.
I doubt it despite anything the top-of-his-class truck driver has to say.
I know, GT, but, I was hoping John, Bunny, or perhaps Reasic might actually comment and denounce Pelosi. Nope. The libs who comment at Right Wing News failed to comment, too.
John is rather absent on this topic, eh, Otter?
So, they once again show their true colors: Investigate and punish free speech.
How dare the little people find out about who was funding this mosque…. us.
Minor factual issue: It wasn’t a Catholic church building that was destroyed on 9-11, but a Greek Orthodox church building.
Nearly nine years on, and it still hasn’t been rebuilt. That’s a disgrace!
While the tranzi-progressive/pro-jihadi NYC bureaucrats, politicians, and media pundits are doing everything they can to smooth the way for the 9-11 mosque (and being very self-righteous about their reasons for this), they are creating every possible obstacle to the rebuilding of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, which was destroyed in the 9-11 attack when the South Tower fell on it.
Rebuild St. Nicholas CHURCH at Ground Zero, not a mosque
The parish still has an active congregation but no building; they have been meeting to worship in Brooklyn. Now, many of us Orthodox Christians, working pretty much independently by word of mouth among friends and parishoners, have finally succeeded in getting some news media attention to this matter.
I’d like to ask all Americans supporting St. Nicholas Church to call, write, or better yet, GO AND VISIT the offices of their US Representative and US Senators. You will probably just get to talk to a staffer, but the staffer will pass this information along. It makes a BIG difference if you take the trouble to write a personal letter or show up in person.
Everyone, please, pass the information along to everybody else you know who might be interested. Put it on Facebook, repost it on your own blog, email it to your friends and relatives, whatever else you can think of. We need to get something done while the issue is still in the public eye.
Thanks!

Sorry, but Greek Orthodox is Catholic. It is not Roman Catholic.
Otter my little sleek but hairy furry animal friend. Looks like you are wrong again, of course I support the rebuilding of St Nicholas Greek Ortodox Church. I was actually a friend Of Archbishop Lakavos, the western prelate, he had a summer place in the small town 0of 200 where I used to live. He was quite an interesting man, marched in Selma when the rightwing social conservatives tried to stop blacks from registering to vote, So why is the right wing only now asking about this church? Is it because of the long history of the Eastern Orthodox Church being involved in “left wing” causes like voter registration of blacks ? The rightwing still prefers not to mention that the Catholic Church was the employer of Obama when he worked in Chicago as a “community organizer”
Otter perhaps instead of dressing up for sex as an Otter you should try to determine more accurately what MY positions are, your guessing was way off base
