• NY Residents Don’t Support Mosque at Ground Zero

  This is an issue of fundamental religious freedom. That far too many people are ignorant of that fact should be alarming to real patriots. It takes an educated and informed citizenry to maintain a democratic country and the right wing is doing everything it can to block education and factual news. Studies have clearly demonstrated that the least informed people get the majority of their news from Fox and rant radio which hold up idiots like Palin and Bachmann as constitutional scholars so it shouldn‘t be too surprising to anyone with half a brain that their fans don’t have a clue as to why our civil liberties are vital to freedom. Preying on people’s fears and bigotry is what fascists do to gain power. The Koch brothers and others of their political stripe care nothing for democracy or this country. Their goal is more money and power for themselves.
