Meditation, chanting and a lot of drugs can clean the sound of her voice from my mind, but nothing can clean that horrible an image from my eyes.

She's exposed herself on National media. Her 15 minutes is just about up.

A Catholic mother and an Eygptian father, born in a Methodist hospital, married to a Christian and a member of the Jewish community center. Obviously the project developer is one clever Jihadi to have developed such an elaborate cover story.

I don't pity her, because she will never feel shame or remorse about trying to demonize and slander Iman Rauf and the Cordoba House/Park51 folks and she'll never feel shame or remorse about associating with avowed white nationalists, bigots, and racists, both here and abroad.

I used to believe every human, no matter how damaged, can be helped to become more human and join the rest of us in respecting ourselves and our environment.

One of the Stalkers, "King Minos", actually tried to link mainstream anti-AGW science (and by extension Ludwig) to a lunatic from Finland named Pentti Linkola on Rodan's Diary of Daedalus. The screwball actually linked to Alex Jones' nutcase site prisonplanet.com. To be fair, several others who post there called his attention to the fact Jones is a nut and linking to him is not smart. But even so it was just stupid. The hate that some people feel towards any who disagree with them is just sick.

I'm kind of the opposite when it comes to Imam Rauf. When I hear him speak or read quotes from him I allow everything their most charitable interpretations. I have a hard time not assuming he's a man of good will when after 9/11, when part of our foreign policy was government sanctioned outreach to the Muslim world, he was one of the ones who stood up and served his country in that role (and continues to). I just can't see him doing all that work, often to an extremely skeptical audience, if he wasn't passionate about the message he was delivering, and that makes it easy to take him at his word when he claims Park 51 is an extension of that work.

A Media Matters for America review of Fox News' evening coverage of the planned building of an Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero found that, since May, the shows have hosted at least 47 guests to discuss the project, nearly 75 percent of whom opposed the center. Just nine of the guests who appeared on the evening programs supported the building, and one guest remained neutral.[Link: mediamatters.org...]

re: #92 simoom

I understand your point. I don't believe those who don't totally trust Rauf (of which I may be in that group) think he's a sekrit Terror Moslim Jihadi proselytizer. I don't believe that at all. At worst, my worst fear, is much more benign than that. Me might be no worse than a dogmatic leftist anti-anything Palistinain apologist (not saying that all leftists are dogmatic Pali apologists or are evil).

But given that, if he is, it's not enough to change my opinion on Park 51. Rauf is moving on past 51 with his rhetoric and I want to believe he truly believes what he is saying and will follow through with it much as some of the things he's done that you note. I have to for lack of evidence to the contrary. I hope my subtle mistrust is unfounded and will disappear, but if not no big deal.

Pam is your Narcissistic Personality.

And by the way, the center is going to be built, the money will be raised, and she will be the main reason it will be built.

Not a bad thing, certainly not what she intended--but because of her making it a cause celebre, donations will pour in from across the country. They should dedicate a floor to her.

Can you imagine how long it would take to raise 100 million just on the basis of logical need, and a picture of the warehouse? Geller accelerated this process tenfold. I'll bet they raise the money within two years.

Here's how we know that she's entered the diagnosable realm. She's a media expert, according to 60 Minutes. So she should be aware that by bringing attention to her issue, she's either going to stop the project, or she's going to be the reason the project gets done quickly. By leaving it alone, the developer would have to raise the money in anonymity. Leaving it alone might have been the best strategy to stop it from happening.

But she can't help herself.

141 Gus  Sun, Sep 26, 2010 8:07:10pm

I try this once in a while. Let me quote George W. Bush.

President Bush Rededicates Islamic Center of Washington
The Islamic Center of Washington
Washington, D.C.

THE PRESIDENT: Imam, thank you very much. Thank you for inviting me. I bring my personal respect to you, sir. And I appreciate your friendship. I do want to thank the governors of the Islamic Center. I welcome the Ambassadors. Thank you all for coming. I appreciate other distinguished guests who are here. It is an honor to join you at this rededication ceremony.

[...]

Men and women of conscience have a duty to speak out and condemn this murderous movement before it finds its path to power. We must help millions of Muslims as they rescue a proud and historic religion from murderers and beheaders who seek to soil the name of Islam. And in this effort, moderate Muslim leaders have the most powerful and influential voice. We admire and thank those Muslims who have denounced what the Secretary General of the OIC called "radical fringe elements who pretend that they act in the name of Islam." We must encourage more Muslim leaders to add their voices, to speak out against radical extremists who infiltrate mosques, to denounce organizations that use the veneer of Islamic belief to support and fund acts of violence, and to reach out to young Muslims -- even in our country and elsewhere in the free world -- who believe suicide bombing may some day be justified.

[...]

We know this because of the 8 million people who braved threats and intimidation to vote in Afghanistan. We know this because of the nearly 12 million people who cast ballots in free elections in Iraq. And we know this because the world watched as the citizens of Lebanon raised the banner of the Cedar Revolution, drove out their Syrian occupiers, and chose new leaders under free elections. Even now the hope for freedom is felt in some dark corners in the Middle East -- whispering in living rooms, and coffee houses, and in classrooms. Millions seek a path to the future where they can say what they think, travel where they wish, and worship as they choose. They plead in silence for their liberty -- and they hope someone, somewhere will answer.

So today, in this place of free worship, in the heart of a free nation, we say to those who yearn for freedom from Damascus to Tehran: You are not bound forever by your misery. You plead in silence no longer. The free world hears you. You are not alone. America offers you its hand in friendship. We work for the day when we can welcome you into the family of free nations. We pray that you and your children may one day know freedom in all things, including the freedom to love and to worship the Almighty God.

May God bless you.

I didn't approve of everything Bush said or did in office, but he was the President, just as President Obama is the man in the big chair at this point.

It just so happens that President Bush was on the right side of the Constitution, common sense, and history in his support of "moderate" Muslims, such as Imam Rauf and this re-dedication of the DC Islamic Center.

re: #142 Liberal Classic

Never understood the need to "feel home" on a blog. I mean, some of my social activities are online, but I don't feel the need to "belong". What does this really mean, anyway?

Good question. Some people want to go places that are comforting to them, some people want to go where there's action, excitement, something happening.

Some people go to shitty dive bars that smell like piss but the beer is cheap and the bartender lets you slide till the end of the week. Some of us go to the library or gym.

There's been a few times I've actually felt uncomfortable here but it was probably a good thing.

There was a leftward shift to this place a while ago. It wasn't any one force or thing, but it happened. So what, no big deal. From where this place was it was probably healthy.

re: #193 b_sharp

Did you mean Culex tarsalis?

To clarify;

The Culexus Assassins are the most sinister, feared, and hated of all Imperial Assassins. They are null-entities in the warp, their unnatural lack of a presence inspiring even in non-psykers a sense of unease. To psykers their mere presence is terrifying, invoking panic. In the confusion caused by this fear, the assassin can move in on its target and eliminate them. To purely psychic entities like daemons, they are invisible.

Geller came off like a radical hate monger. The people she is accusing of being what she is came off as kind, gracious and civil.

The Imam and developer are the sort of Americans and well just plain human beings I would rather associate myself with than a raving loon like Geller.

That part about if there was another attack on America that he hoped he would be the kind of Muslim/person to be the barrier between radical Islamists and the rest of society was very moving. Well said sir.

I'm no "liberal", in the pejorative sense of the word in the current right-wing lexicon, but there were a lot of posters who have since departed or were shown the door that were bigots, racists, or just plain old sociopathic assholes...and most of them claimed to be "conservatives".

Also remember that $300,000 bail means the cost is $30,000 for the bond. The bondsman puts up the rest or at least is on the hook for it.

US: Inverted Philippine flag was `honest mistake'

The U.S. government said Sunday it made an "honest mistake" when it displayed an inverted Philippine flag — which wrongfully signified that the Southeast Asian nation was in a state of war — in a meeting hosted by President Barack Obama.

The Philippine flag was displayed upside down behind President Benigno Aquino III when leaders of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations met Obama in New York on Friday.

"This was an honest mistake," U.S. Embassy spokeswoman Rebecca Thompson said in a statement, adding, "the U.S. treasures its close relationship and close partnership with the Philippines."

The American embassy will find out how the "unfortunate" incident happened, she said.

How embarrassing.

Most people aren't original and take their direction from others. That's one thing Ayn Rand was correct about. But its possible to be unoriginal and be a good person and she never seemed to understand that.

At about 1/2 way through they show a graphic from Geller's blog labeling the Taj Mahal as a mosque.

Technically, there are several mosques on the grounds of the Taj Mahal. However, I seriously doubt the Manhattan Project is going to end up looking like that. Which really is a shame, the Taj is heartbreakingly beautiful.

I get suspect that you are going to believe what you want to believe and no matter how many moderate Muslims speak out you will not listen. You won't even consider the Muslims that died on 911, those that serve in the military, and those that even worship in the Pentagon as shown on this video.

I read that as 'worship the Pentagon', and was thinking, "I don't care how gung-ho you are, I don't think Islam ALLOWS that..."

BTW. Trembling Before G-D has been on Hulu for several months now. I think you went to a counter protest in SF to that sometime ago? They were protesting the Out in Israel film festival just because, well, you know.

Description for others:

Built around intimately-told personal stories of Hasidic and Orthodox Jews who are gay or lesbian, this documentary portrays a group of people who face a profound dilemma.

the U.S. is a great nation and all, but even if we wanted to and we had a trillion dollars to play with, we couldn't build something new and different that would echo down the centuries as the Taj Mahal has.

We are a pragmatic people, and the Taj, and the great cathedrals of Europe, are acts of faith written in stone. Whose faith doesn't seem to be the controlling factor in how great the building ends up being, seen as a work of art.

Whatever else our legacy may be, we do have the Lincoln memorial, the moon landing, the Panama canal, the airplane, the transistor, the photography of Ansel Adams, some music styles, and the Declaration of Independence to our credit.

But great devotional architecture, no.

She's not a bad-looking woman, but she's falling into the trap that awaits a lot of right-wing female pundits (the farther right they go, the more it takes over. Peggy Noonan, for example, looks quite nice). The oversexualized, flinging-your-hair-around, who-cares-if-I'm-fifty-I'm-wearing-a-miniskirt look.
