Some of my Conservative co-old farts are distressed over the potential of a mosque being built near 9/11 ground zero. But, unlike me, these haven't learned to change with the times. This is modern America; the Hopeful and Changeling America of the 21st century. It is no longer George Patton's, Teddy Roosevelt's, John Wayne's, Ronald Reagan's, or even George W. Bush's America. This is Barack Obama's America with a modern vision for the nation and its future involvement in the world community.
With the Obama Administration's blessing, the powers that be in the state and city of New York will encourage the mosque to be built. Shortly after its completion they will 'discover' that through eminent domain they will be able to claim the property for public use and economic development.
"Our redevelopment plan will create or save 3,169 jobs and raise millions in tax revenue. That's real stimulus."
That's Obama's modern America.
