Daisy runs a non-profit organization based in Manhattan, as does her husband who has served as an imam in that neighborhood for nearly 3 decades. When I saw the headlines about the mosque being planned a few blocks away from Ground Zero, I knew who was behind it: yes, my friend Daisy and her husband, Feisal Rauf.First of all for Berry is that the Mosque is not being build on ground zero. It is a few blocks away. And second the people who are planning to build this are, well let;s let Jill say it:
Never mind that Daisy and Feisal, as well as the two separate organizations they run, have long histories of interfaith, peace-building and humanitarian work. That both of them are famous internationally for this work. That everyone who knows them knows that they are "red-white-and-blue" Americans. Never mind that their stated goals in building the mosque and community center focus on serving the local community in lower Manhattan (whose community board voted unanimously in approval of it) and taking a bold stand against violent extremism. After all, that's what people have clamored for Muslims to do for nearly 10 years - make strong statements and take bold actions against extremism.Berry not only has his foot so far in his mouth that he needs a suppository to get it out, but he is clearly ignorant about the situation. But then again, that is what KTRH stands for now a days.
Ignorance, hate, and profits.

I'll agree with Jill on this one. her friends are, I would presume, not terrorists. They are, on the other hand, moral pigs for even considering that location -- which is the equivalent of putting a Nazi party office outside the gates of Auschwitz or a KKK headquarters next to the Lorraine Motel in Memphis.
What next? Selling Lee Harvey Oswald t-shirts at JFK's grave?
Moral Pig? From someone who supported an unnecessary war.
I guess you dont have any Muslim kids at your school.
I wonder if you teach that kind of hate to your kids in school.
Well greg, if you would quit commenting no one will respond to you.
Sometimes I actually feel a little guilty for characterizing the extreme right wingers as racist bigoted xenophobes with shoe sizes that exceed their average I.Q.
And sometimes they more than earn the definition.
And I crack myself up at times
"Berry not only has his foot so far in his mouth that he needs a suppository to get it out........
