I don't disagree. It should be permissible. I'm for them building something anywhere including the area in question.
I am not in favor of any of the politicians from outside of the local area weighing in from David Paterson, Governor of NY to President Obama. They aren't involved in our day to day politics and should stay out of it. NY Gov. Paterson Mosque Compromis to "use government land" is folly and shows his ignorance and stupidity. It allows people to then weigh in on and critique him for his viewpoint that he shouldn't be judged on. This is why I believe that President Obama shouldn't have made a public statement on it. It could have easily been put out via other channels that it is his opinion but it didn't have to be an officially stated direct from the mouth statement.
There are already too many people who get involved in my hometown politics that are elected and appointed. I don't need more that come from outside of the area that I may not have elected to care for my area.
