>>We're getting a Mosque at Ground Zero, supported by our Muslim president, declaring five times a day over loudspeakers, their victory over the infidels.<< Well, except for the fact that it isn't at Ground Zero, it's in a former Burlington Coat Factory two blocks north of there. I used to work a couple of doors down in an audio store. And our President is not a Muslim. And mosques in the US don't broadcast the call to prayer over loudspeakers, as they do in other places. So your facts are completely wrong, but I'm glad you chose to share your opinion anyway.
