THE ROMNEY VS. PERRY FACE-OFF: PEGGY NOONAN

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111904583204576544950123880920.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop “Every one of the Republicans candidates believes American government has grown too big, too ponderous and inhibiting. They see it as an impediment to growth. They want to cut it back. Every one of them believes regulations are too burdensome. They think our debt and deficits must be reduced.

YES….IT IS A PONZI SCHEME…IN FACT IT IS EVEN WORSE: MICHAEL TANNER

DICK MORRIS: NO FEDERAL FUNDS FOR GROUND ZERO MOSQUE….SEE NOTE

http://www.dickmorris.com/blog/no-federal-funds-for-ground-zero-mosque/

ON EVERY NEWS SHOW DICK MORRIS INTERJECTS THIS NEWS. SUPPORT HIM AND SIGN THE PETIION….PLEASE!!…RSK

The ground zero mosque, called Park 51, has applied for a $5 million grant of federal funds from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation. The Corporation, set up to rebuild lower Manhattan after 9-11 is actively considering the grant request. Imagine! A federal entity set up to rebuild lower Manhattan giving tax money to a mosque designed to celebrate the attacks that killed 3,000 Americans!

The ground zero mosque will offer courses in Shariah Law and will doubtless spawn hundreds of new terrorists eager to pick up where the 9-11 hijackers left off.

Officially, the federal funds would not go to religious activities, but to “fund social service programs for all the residents of Lower Manhattan such as domestic violence prevention, Arabic and other foreign language classes, programs and services for homeless veterans, two multi-cultural art exhibits and immigration services,” according to its grant application.

he sponsors of the mosque have no business rubbing the noses of the victims’ families in the dirt by building the mosque right next to the site of 9-11. But there is especially no justification for using our tax money to make it possible.

Please CLICK HERE to sign an online petition to the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation to urge them to refuse the grant request! Keep some sense of proportion and decency!
