A Field In Pennsylvania

"Guess what?"

"The jobless numbers are climbing, even though we're 'recovering' and the stimulus is 'working.'"

"Yeah, but I bet you didn't know that--"

"Republicans want Obama to 'change' like he was supposed to by doing something that actually HELPS the economy."

"Oh. Okay, so you do know. Well, you'll never guess what Obama said in reply."

"'We're heading in the right direction'?"

"Wow. I guess this is getting pretty predictable. But I bet you don't know what the Democrats want to do in order to KEEP heading in the right direction."

"Push through another hundreds-of-billions-of-dollars-worth of stimulus?"

"Okay, never mind."


In other news, the Ground Zero mosque and a terrorist organization are in the same funding pool. A key investor in the mosque also happened to be a key investor in Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development, or HLF, which is a terror organization that supported the terrorist group Hamas.

Of course, the "investor," Hisham Elzanaty, thought he was donating to an orphanage when he donated to HLF. Well, he is helping create orphans...

And now he's, of course, funding the mosque (not to be confused with the terrorist organization he funded previously). What's wrong with the mosque? We've been over this. It's an issue of national security. A bunch of Muslims go in to "pray," meet, walk two blocks, and bomb whatever we put in place of the World Trade Center (in case they don't already own it anyway). Another issue is: Osama bin Ladin's out there, he looks and says, "Hey, look. That Obama idiot, bless his heart, is a Muslim-friendly, clueless dirtbag. Bombs away! Heck, I might even get a medal, or, hey, a Nobel Peace Prize for this attack." It's an issue of national dignity as well.

And finally, it's an issue of sensitivity. Americans, like the brave souls who saved the White House and crashed in a field in Pennsylvania, are the ones who deserve anything here, like respect. We can respect Muslims and Muslim Americans, too, but Americans should care for Americans first. Terrorists aren't even a close second. If Muslims really were peaceful and respected America, they'd move their "cultural center" a few blocks. But they won't, because this is them pushing the envelope a little bit farther (because, you know, they didn't push it enough on 9/11). If we let them have this, they'll take anything. If we let them have this mosque at Ground Zero, they'll soon take Ground Zero itself. And maybe the Pentagon.

And maybe a field in Pennsylvania.
