It’s just unbelievable; the entire Republican Party is signing on to the “Ground Zero Mosque” freak show, even people who have been known in the past to speak out against bigotry — like Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA): Cantor on the Ground Zero mosque.

Cantor is clearly aware that his opposition to the Cordoba House violates American freedom of religion, but hey! I mean, come on! These are Muslims we’re talking about!

Everybody knows America’s built on the rights of free expression, the rights to practice your faith, but come on.

Are there any grownups left in the Republican Party?
