Ginned up Outrage! Its a Mosque!!

I just saw this article in a blog called Down with Tyranny!
In short, how the far-right tries to gin up outrage for their own selfish ends. The whole Mosque hubub in NYC is a classic example of making someing upsetting to stir up people to be against the "enemy". Before it was the Commies and now we have Muslums as the "other" that look funny act different. Its a tradition for scummy politicians like New Gingrich who KNOWS better but likes to to stir the sinking white working class who are truly getting screwed. Just change the subject and get your right-wingers elected and question Obama about if he is a MUSLIM. Here is a passage
Obviously, this is about more than just a mosque. It’s also more than just a wedge issue. It leads us to the horror of what Republicans are at their core. It’s about people who always need someone to hate. They are addicted to it. The only thing worse than a new mosque to a Republican this week would be a new mosque built by married gay couples who are about to retire and collect their Social Security and Medicare.

The mosque insanity is 2010’s Terry Schiavo “crisis,” pushed forward by the usual gang of republikook congressloons and mediagoons. Should we ban Catholic churches being built because of the actions of some pedi-priests? Are ALL Catholics evil because of the actions of a few?
Its justt in time for the 2010 Mid-Terms. Senator Harry Reid is acting like a typical Democratic politician and saying the Mosque should not be built there 4 blocks from ground zero. Yup, you can count on some Dems to act like cowering children to right-wing bullies! Geez!!!
