it’s easy to hate Muslims in the U.S. right now

What an idiot!

If these stories are true, I don’t know what business these two have building any new structures….

The religious leader behind the proposed mosque near Ground Zero has been slapped with a lawsuit in Union City, NJ, where officials have accused him of ignoring dozens of violations at two rundown apartment buildings he owns.

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf’s buildings, with a total of 48 apartments, have been the targets of more than 30 health and safety complaints, among them mold, uncollected garbage, bedbugs, odors, dirty hallways and a lack of heat, the lawsuit says.

One of the buildings has been boarded up by Rauf since a blaze on Feb. 8, 2008, that broke out after Union City had issued a dozen fire-code violations there.

My first impression of this article before reading it based on the title was that Rick Sanchez was jealous of the sporty new iPad Palladino has.

Where indeed.

Guess that’s not the case, :D

And it just occurred to me… supporters keep saying it’s “not a mosque, it’s a cultural center”.

Well, if it’s not a mosque, then this Paladino dude is right, it’s not about freedom of religion.

“Perhaps most troubling however, beyond Paladino’s total disregard for things like the Constitution”

I didn’t interpret his actions as a disregard for the Constitution, but more of a disregard for Sanchez.

Good point Sara!

It’s just a Burlington Coat Factory YMCA Culinary Arts Center !

Why all the fuss over Freedom of religion Libs ?

Wow. Carl.. I’m from Buffalo and right now my home town candidate embasses me.. WTF? The “Small gov’t, tea party rep” thinks it’s perfectly ok to go in and stop the NYC Mosque project declaring it imminent domain. He basically saying the gov’t has the right to take your property if they don’t agree with your view………..

I wanna be fair here and not take Carl out of context, but this whole memorial the size of the dust cloud thing, are we to assume that the countless business, offices, housing, strip clubs and churches that are already inside the cloud radius will all be forced to move and Carl’s gov’t will seize them?? or does this rule ONLY apply to Muslims?

It’s pretty clear from the video that this only applies to Muslims, at least for Paladino.

If it’s a Republican, to Glynnis, it’s the same difference.

Proud to say I voted for this nut yesterday.

Nothing in New York politics is working at all. Businesses are leaving left and right due to taxes. Citizens are flocking out of state specifically in Upstate/Western NY because of taxes. The people/businesses that are left get to pick up the tab with higher taxes. At least Paladino has a background that is very successful in private business and might actually grasp some simple basic fundamentals about economics and money.

Im so sick of the people that tipee toe around issues being politically correct, this guy Im pretty sure will be straight forward and tell you like he thinks it is. Quite frankly it would be refreshing to hear a politician operate that way and not care what others think about him.

Here’s a serious question. Carl owns numerous property that is currently being rented by gov’t agencies all over the state, to the tune of 60+ million in contracts. If he’s elected, will he as Governor forgive the payments on those properties which tax payer money would be used, or will we be literally putting money in his pocket? another question, is there a legal precedence, would he have to sell all this property? Seems like it would be a conflict of interest

Is Sanchez actually arguing that majority sensibilities determine whether something is “politically correct”?

Im sure if somebody in the media were to ask him that question that he would actually answer it and not dodge it.

Well, the only thing Sanchez seems to be saying is that it would be wrong for Paladino to take certain actions that would change the zoning rights in that area.

Well, that’s up to a court to determine. That question won’t be based upon “freedom of religion”, on that you can depend.

Well, I live out in Utah and don’t know a lot about him, so I’ll stick with commenting on the one I know more about. Sanchez is an idiot!!

@dandmb50 – I”m no lawyer, New Yorker or American, but I don’t understand his view at all, it just doesn’t make any sense in law or common sense. The Government can just move in and take their land and it’s not because of religious freedom?
How does the story go …
The military came forward and shut down the Jew that was peacefully protesting and arrested him, then they got away with it, so they came and took away the Christian for peacefully preaching on the street, arrested and took him away and nobody said anything.
Then they came for me, and I wish I had spoken up earlier when they took away the Jew and the Christian.
We better all wake up and not let this happen to any of us because we may end up having our Church or place of worship taken away.
I doubt very much if this Paladino guy will be elected and even the people against Muslims can see through him, he is a dangerous person because maybe you will be next on his hit list.

Give me a break. All you can say is Sanchez is an idiot. Paladino is one of the tea party candidates, and even real Republicans in his hometown of Buffalo are embarrassed. I don’t believe you. You are trying to dodge the issue. You would vote for him if you lived in NY. Even with his track record. Come on, either defend or deny him!

I’ll defend him, what you see is what you get. If you dont like it, then you have an easy decision to not vote for him. If you do like him then you have an easy decision to vote for him. There are no shady underlying motivators with him. He is straight forward and makes it an easy choice for all, for that I am grateful and wish more politicians were as up front as him.

Carl was a democrate up until 2005, and has made numerous financial contributions to the democratic party including the idiot we got stuck with because some people had a problem with Spitzer’s attraction to Prostitudes… that turned out well

Rick Sanchez’s Explosive Interview With Carl Paladino”

Really? Where was it? Why didn’t ya post a clip of the “explosive” interview?

“To Rick Sanchez’s everlasting credit he stopped Paladino at this point to tell him that it was “his job to be correct”

Really? His job is to be correct?

Then why to he misstate or lie about what the Constitution says?

Sanchez: ” The Constitution says we have a right to worship as we please, where we please.”

Rick, please show where in the Constitution it says “we have a right to worship where we please?”

As a matter of fact, the Govt has decided the exact opposite- you can’t worship in school, you can’t have a nativity scene in school , etc.

Where have ya been Ricky boy?

Did anyone hear Glenn Beck on the radio this morning reporting the BookScan data for how many copies have been sold of Rick Sanchez and Ed Schultz’s new books. It was hilarious, and all absolutely truthful. Last week, Rick Sanchez’s hot new book sold 802 copies. But that looked really good compared to Ed Schultz’s new book, which sold 76 copies in the entire nation last week. That’s no lie. Beck was wondering if he could ever write a book so inept as to only sell 76 copies.

And this tells you exactly what’s going on with these liberal hosts. They have a huge global platform, with the support of MSNBC and CNN. But even with that enormous boost, no one takes them seriously. Beck attracts a half million people to the Washington Mall, while Ed and Rick can’t give their book away.

Best quote from a blogger employed by Wnymedia.net who has been covering Carl for a while now

“The man you think will come and save us from the status quo has been the BIGGEST SINGLE SUPPORTER of the status quo for 35 freakin years!! Carl is the worst kind of career politician. The enabler! He just hasn’t actually been elected to office and probably never will be.”

HA HA…………. Small government “lets get back to the constitution” tea-baggers want the government to seize private property because it might offend someone’s sensibilities. Well I am offended by what goes happens on Wall St. and since that was within the “cloud of human remains” the property should be sized and turned into a memorial to the victims of capitalism.

Re: Cuomo is like an old flat pillar its time to get rid of him.

Andrew Cuomo endorsed the Islam Mosque near Ground Zero, and he accepted money from Islam Muslims. Americans do not trust Andrew Cuomo and they will let him know their passionate feelings at the polls.
The Westchester News from New York

It’s Official New York State is the most corrupt Political State in the country.

Read This Article and watch all the videos about these Islam Muslims, and then tell me if you think they should have equal rights in America.  All it will take for us to lose our freedom in America is 20% Islam Muslims and they will take away our freedom and they will do to America what they did to Europe.

Carl SCHOOLED the novice, Sanchez!

Poor Rick Sanchez; he just keeps knocking CNN’s ratings down another level.

What a jerk; the future governor took Rick down for what he is – a progressive liberal who pushes the liberal agenda.

CNN doesn’t have many viewers for a reason.

New Yorkers have loudly proclaimed that they would choose not to have this Mosque built, we don’t have to go over the reasons, it is perfectly clear that it is the wrong thing to do, too many people now feel uncomfortable with the muslim population since everytime there is an attack, of any kind on Americans, the muslims are involved. Carl Paladino is stating honestly that he agrees with the people of New York because of the circumstances & the uncertainty about what the building would be used for &, particularly at a time when we still find some of the Imam’s remarks & friends to be questionable. Before, or during, the 2nd world war, German submarines were patrolling the waters off of New Jersey & there were german soldiers training in the woods of New Jersey. When we have a country that is war like or who has animosity towards any particular country, it is wise to be alert. If a german submarine can patrol our waters at a time when America was at war, then what is to stop militant muslims from finding a convenient way to “patrol” our country, especially New York, the financial center of our country. Yes, we must be vigilant & Rick Sanchez is only using this meeting with Paladino to cause controversy..did you notice how he “slipped” in the remark…and “HISPANICS”, where did that come from..the topic was not about “his” background, it was about a matter involving the lives & emotions of many New Yorkers who have a right to work & live in peace without fear of another horrific event. I was very impressed at how tolerant Mr. Paladino was of Rich Sanchez, who is still “wet behind the ears” & would be better off doing “sports” on CNN, he is crude, rude, & unpolished. He would be better off interviewing someone like Lady GaGa, that is more his speed.. He is devoid of …CLASS!

With comments like this, I think there should be a test on the Constitution and Declaration of Independence before one can vote. Yeah, toots, if you don’t agree with another AMERICAN CITIZEN, take away their equal rights. Even KKKers have equal rights. That is what made our nation great, not thanks to you! If they break the law, arrest them, for crying out loud. You say we should take away the rights of a whole group. How intolerant — UnAmerican — and stupid.

It’s not surprising in the least that such a hateful, ignorant person would give an aggressive interview like this.

Also, this is the type of person Republicans have been frightened into voting for. The more they show up on TV and print, the more moderates they’ll lose and the more Democrats will be influenced to vote.

Speaking as someone who lives in NY, the majority of the people I work with have had no idea who this guy is they are quite frankly scared of his rhetoric and all these things that are coming out about him. I dont like Cuomo. I wasnt pleased with his contribution to the sub-prime mortgage crisis, especially since the real estate industry has given him his greatest political donations. But New Yorkers arent going to remember that. The sad thing is that some arent going to care. People here consider him a superstar. If Cuomo was the one who sent the pornographic emails, he’d still be 20 points up in the polls. Same with Charlie Rangel. This state has been hijacked by idiocy and it will take an awakening to get us on the right track.

You are the King and Queen of teabagging, you teabagee!

What if Paladino is right?
CAN MUSLIMS BE GOOD Australians? This is certainly ‘food-for-thought’.

This is very interesting and we all need to read it from start to finish.
And send it on to everyone. Maybe this is why our Australian Muslims are so quiet and not speaking out about any atrocities.

Can a good Muslim be a good Australian?

This question was forwarded to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20years.

The following is his reply:

Theologically – no. . . . Because his allegiance is to Allah, The moon god of Arabia .

Religiously – no.. . . Because no other religion is accepted by His Allah except Islam . (Quran, 2:256)(Koran)

Scripturally – no. . . Because his allegiance is to the five Pillars of Islam and the Quran.

Geographically – no . Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he turns in prayer five times a day.

Socially – no. . . Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make friends with Christians or Jews .

Politically – no.. . . Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America , the great Satan, Australia and the rest of the free world.

Domestically – no. .. . Because he is instructed to marry four Women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34 )

Intellectually – no. . Because he cannot accept the Australian Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be corrupt.

Philosophically – no. . . . Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran does not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.

Spiritually – no.. . . Because when we declare ‘one nation under God,’ The Christian’s God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as Heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in the Quran’s 99 excellent names.

Therefore, after much study and deliberation…. Perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. – - – They obviously cannot be both ‘good’ Muslims and good Australians. Call it what you wish it’s still the truth. You had better believe it. The more who understand this, the better it will be for our country and our future.

The religious war is bigger than we know or understand. ….

Footnote: The Muslims have said they will destroy us from within. SO FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!

Religion: The antithesis of good public policy

Did any Dems have primaries yesterday? I haven’t heard of a Dem primary in forever…oh wait Rangel, and a mayoral race…a fuckin mayor. Guess with so few candidates in primaries means they are uninterested, unless they all got Obamajobs.

I’m not in NY, didn’t watch the video, did Sanchez ask what the proof was against Rauf? Honesty should by one of the top qualifications, some people here think he’s honest and candid. Delaware voters spoke, NY voters spoke, and they will all speak again November. Doesn’t the criticizing get exhausting?

Play with fire and you might get something something…

Glynnis MacNicol said: Paladino’s total disregard for things like the Constitution

hahahahaha

That’s hilarious Glynnis!

What do YOU know about “the Constitution”?

Do you really even care about “the Constitution”, whenever it isn’t used by you and other Leftys as a politically convenient vehicle and/or weapon, to be lavished and launched by the Left??

Here’s a few Q’s for you Glynnis. I’ll start out very easy. I promise!

Did you know that the original Constitution was enacted in 1787?

Did you know that the Constitution was Amended in 1791?

Getting a little tougher now…

Did you know that the Bill of Rights, which are the first Ten Amendments to the Constitution were added to rein the federal government in?

Did you know that the Bill of Rights negated huge swaths of the original 1787 Constitution, including the so-called (now defunct – due to the Ninth and Tenth Amendments) Supremacy Clause?

Did you know that there are no provisions within the Constitution for legislatures or judges to interpret the Constitution based on anything remotely like penumbras and emanations, that Lefty judges find useful and always conjure up, whenever the Constitution is silent about pet concepts the Lefty judges want to proclaim by judicial fiat, to be Constitutional?

That’s all for now Glynnis. But if you score well, and even if you don’t, on this tiny test, I’ll be happy to come back to this thread to educate more!

I think it is not surprising, at least, that such a disgusting, ignorant person would give an interview to an aggressive manner. Again, this is the kind of person that the Republicans are afraid of the vote. Others appear on television and in print more conservative and more lose their influence to vote for Democrats.

Tea Baggers also grossly misinterpret the motivations of the founders, because they’re educated by hucksters like Beck. They also don’t realize that the Constitution is a living, breathing document – again, because the founders had the foresight to know that the world and their country would change. With a luminary like Jefferson, who understood the failings of Christian dogma so intimately, being a chief architect it’s obvious.

Well, to everyone but the Tea Baggers.

So one guy burns some pages of the Koran, on his own time, and he gets FIRED. Where is Rick’s outrage over him being fired for expressing his first amendment rights?

Where is mediaite on that outrage?

As for Sanchez, everyone pretty much knows he is a clymer and a half, and his ratings show it.

Looking forward to watching the major meltdown on 2 November when the enemedia reports on the election results (well, it won’t be reporting anyway, it will be teeth gnashing, yelling, screaming, etc.).

This guy called out Rick for what he is: a liberal extremist and Rick got mad and defensive.

You don’t know “a lot about him”?????? Oh, come on! You are on this site all the time. You know all about his racist cartoons involving both Obamas. You know about his emails and pornography. Give me a break. All you can say is Sanchez is an idiot. Paladino is one of the tea party candidates, and even real Republicans in his hometown of Buffalo are embarrassed. I don’t believe you. You are trying to dodge the issue. You would vote for him if you lived in NY. Even with his track record. Come on, either defend or deny him!

I’m a little confused by the GOP in funding. They won’t fund O Donnell but they will this guy? WTF?

Timothy Wright, You’d be surprised the tricks that are pulled via the internet, it’s quite easy to place pornographic junk on anyone’s computer, I don’t swallow that but even if it was true, c’mon, there’s a lot of hanky panky going on around Washington too so don’t be so critical, just go in any high class mens room & you’ll see a waiting line outside of well dressed executives waiting for their turn to….urinate? Sure..don’t believe it, those little page boys have been replaced by college, good looking, well dressed girly boys & they serve a purpose, every now & then, they don’t need brains, they just need to be cute. The smartest men have fetish’s I am sure, if these claims are true, or I might say, curiousity..how many in our nation watched the beheading of that poor young man who was held prisoner in an orange jump suit. I would not watch it but I know a lot of family members who did..so you can through that accusation out the window, concerning moral attitude, likes & dislikes. The tea party members are not a bunch of bimbos, they are concerned citizens who want to get the most from their country..especially when they work hard…& they don’t want to have to be threatened by a bunch of drug induced maniacs that put themselves into a trance before they do the honorable thing & blow up a building or two. Just the thought that a building representing their beliefs will be bought is incomprehensible. I think the next change we have in 2 yrs. will be for a better life than we now have. ..and I’m not a doll, I’m not a hon, I’m a lady …with christian values!

sorry, two typo’s, have to cook dinner. I am sure you know I meant, “throw” & “built” in place of “through” & “bought”. Can’t do 2 things at one time. Have a nice day & don’t take life too seriously!

murf says: “Why all the fuss over Freedom of religion Libs ?”

Good question. It’s not the liberals who are making the fuss. It’s the Islamaphoic Pamela Gellar who’s kicked up the stink about this cultural center which, apparently you don’t know, will be an inter-faith center for Christians, Jews and Muslims to pray in.

So, reactionaries, why all the fuss over a culinary school, gym and interfaith cultural center?

(You do know that there was a mosque in the South tower, right?

Wow, Rick Sanchez is the stupidest man on cable.

But Paladino can’t be too bright, if he agreed to appear on CNN.

And it just occurred to me… supporters keep saying it’s “not a mosque, it’s a cultural center”.

Well, if it’s not a mosque, then this Paladino dude is right, it’s not about freedom of religion.

Fine if it’s not a first amendment issue, then its a 4th amendment issue that protects us from unreasonable searches and seizures. Using the state to seize private property because of some weak reason like ethnicity or religion would be unconstitutional as well.

It would appear that Glynnis is trying hard to do her best Maureen Dowd snark interpretation. Can you do these stories without doing your personal like or dislike for a person? Please bless us with a disclaimer of you hatred before processing a story.

Glen Beck is right. Sanchez is quite possibly, the stupidest news broadcaster of TV.

The large yellow banner screaming “Columnists”? It’s there for a reason.

Yeah, Paladino looks a little arrogant, but Sanchez looks really stupid. Still voting for Paladino in the fall – and I’m a registered Dem!

I’m still waiting to see Sanchez’ explosive interview with a suicide bomber.

Me too! I’m a registered Dem too.

And here is why:

“There are as many starting points for the mortgage meltdown as there are fears about how far it has yet to go, but one decisive point of departure is the final years of the Clinton administration, when a kid from Queens without any real banking or real-estate experience was the only man in Washington with the power to regulate the giants of home finance, the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), better known as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Andrew Cuomo, the youngest Housing and Urban Development secretary in history, made a series of decisions between 1997 and 2001 that gave birth to the country’s current crisis. He took actions that—in combination with many other factors—helped plunge Fannie and Freddie into the subprime markets without putting in place the means to monitor their increasingly risky investments. He turned the Federal Housing Administration mortgage program into a sweetheart lender with sky-high loan ceilings and no money down, and he legalized what a federal judge has branded “kickbacks” to brokers that have fueled the sale of overpriced and unsupportable loans. Three to four million families are now facing foreclosure, and Cuomo is one of the reasons why.

What he did is important—not just because of what it tells us about how we got in this hole, but because of what it says about New York’s attorney general, who has been trying for months to don a white hat in the subprime scandal, pursuing cases against banks, appraisers, brokers, rating agencies, and multitrillion-dollar, quasi-public Fannie and Freddie.”

Cuomo reminds me of Spitzer who went after prostitution so hard. No pun intended. And then we found out he was a” John” himself. Hypocrit.

Its always about choices between candidates. Paladino is saying he’s going to cut my taxes by 10%. I like that. Cuomo like any Dem in NY is beholden to the public employee unions. Just ask Paterson what happens when you try to save your state from bankruptcy and the unions are threatened with cuts. He’s not running for govenor. We need someone who will do what has to be done and that means cutting spending folks. I know you libbies love to talk endlessly about teabaggin but you hate it when we talk fiscal responsibility. And of course you think we are racist t…er something….but someone has to be the grown up and make the tough unpopular and right decisions for the State of NY. I pray Paladino gets a chance. I’m sure Cuomo wouldn’t even try.

As far as the Mosque/Not a Mosque is concerned. They have the right to build it in my opinion but they shouldn’t. Its a mean gesture. It is hurtful to the victems families. It is divisive and they must have known it would be. It just seems like the Imam is as much of an attention whore as the pastor who was going to burn the koran. Which by the way I think he had the right to do under the first ammendment. And the very idea that burning the koran is going to insite violence from radical muslims on Americans doesn’t work for me either. Maybe if they weren’t trying to kill us all the time anyhow. But it just doesn’t make sense when last Christmas they tried to blow up a plane in the US, a car in times square, and of course the Ft Hood masacre no one talks about anymore. Its not as if they’ve stopped so what difference would it make? But just like building the mosque at ground zero its a mean gesture and divisive.

Who is seizing his property?

Timothy Wright said:
So, Rick Sanchez has no class for asking tough questions but Paladino, who sends around images of hardcore porn, bestiality porn, and disgusting racist images somehow has class?

WOW!

Teabaggers and right wingnuts sure are a weird bunch.

Hey now – if Germans can patrol our waters, who knows?

Paladino, is another cup of crazy tea! The tea baggers want the offices, but what will happen when they realize you do have to pay taxes and social programs are needed! No ideas, rally with fear, be mad and scare people. Good luck!

There’s a fun little satire fan page starting up on Facebook that pokes fun at the true purpose of the Tea Party (that being intentional Cognitive Distortion in political discussion).

http://www.facebook.com/TeaPartyCognitiveDistortion

As the page says: “Don’t let the educated, the elite, determine our future. Time to mix things up, establish a future based on the whims of a pack of batsh*t crazy Mama Grizzlies.” :)

Ya know what the problem is? The media. Most of these new commentators are giving us their own personal feelings and opinions instead of just reporting the news. This is why there are so many blow ups on the news channels to this day. Naturally, this is my opinion. I just want to hear the news like it use to be in the good old days and let us discuss it with our own friends and relatives.

Press Release

Re: Carl Paladino Vs. Andrew Cuomo 

“It’s a true saying, the grass is not greener on the other side.”

Who is the worst of the two candidate’s?  CARL PALADINO is, I never thought politics could get any worse, but this man is the most disgusting pig I have ever came across in politics, he’s a pervert giving out lollipops to kids and telling their Mom’s to vote for him.

Without a doubt Carl Paladino is the worst out of the two candidates, he is absolutely not fit for office his mind is in the sewer it’s a cesspool full of pornographic videos.  

I feel like a fool after all these months I was supporting him on Westchester Online News, the internet and all the blogs, I feel terrible that I helped this man win the primary, but, he must not win the election, I hope it’s not too late too reach all the New Yorkers that voted for him in the primary to inform them that this man is not fit for the Governors Office.  He is also a racist.

It also is the responsibility for all the Online Press, TV News Media and Newspapers to inform the public about his pornographic perverted mind.

We removed our endorsement from Carl Paladino For Governor of New York!

Sanchez should be fired. CNN: buy out his contract, regardless of cost. This guy is an idiot.
