Roy Blunt Abandons Shame Tries To Exploit 911 For Campaign

Blunt's Republican team posted a web video yesterday, featuring an image of Ground Zero shortly after the 9/11 attacks nine years ago -- with visible smoke still rising the devastation.

Ground Zero Mosque Is the New Death Panels

While Mayor Bloomberg and President Obama have their hearts in the right place, the very idea that the Cordoba House hysteria is about "religion" is not really accurate.

The fact that the public debate has been framed around a "Ground Zero mosque" flows not from the facts of the project, but from a cynical right-wing agenda to create a wedge issue.

Fox News Discussion Of Ground Zero Mosque Fair and Balanced
