Ground Zero Mosque Puts-In for 5 Million in Grants [rdbrewer]
— Open Blogger

From John Avlon.

Developers of the controversial Park51 Islamic community center and mosque located two blocks from Ground Zero earlier this month applied for roughly $5 million in federal grant money set aside for the redevelopment of lower Manhattan after the attacks of September 11th, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the matter.

. . .

The application was submitted under a “community and cultural enhancement” grant program administered by the Lower Manhattan Redevelopment Corporation (LMDC), which oversaw the $20 billion in federal aid allocated in the wake of 9/11 and is currently doling out millions in remaining taxpayer funds for community development.

Once again, the question is not whether they have a legal right to federal dollars; it's wether they should access them. The ground zero mosque developers seem to have little interest in propriety and a stunning lack of empathy. Of course. That's how you bring people together. By stepping on their feet.

Thanks to DrewM and Ben.

14 What's the problem?  You infidels owe us this money as jizaya, the poll tax for non-Muslims.  You should thank us for not charging you more.  This mosque won't build itself, you know.  After all, we Muslims did the hard work of demolition so that we could rehabilitate this part of Manhattan into something better.  Could somebody please clean up all these bone fragments so we can begin building?

43 On the lame duck agenda: 1) Expiring tax cuts: If Bush-era tax cuts are allowed to expire Dec. 31, everyone’s taxes will go up. Republicans want to extend all of the tax cuts and make them permanent. Democrats want to extend the cuts only to individuals earning less than $200,000 a year and families earning less than $250,000 and may only extend them temporarily. If the two sides can’t reach agreement, the issue could be delayed until the new Congress convenes in January, a move that would cause everyone’s taxes to rise temporarily. This bill could also incorporate other tax issues, including a measure to extend tax breaks to small businesses, language creating a new rate for the estate tax and a provision to keep the alternative minimum tax from hitting millions of middle-income earners. 2) Unemployment insurance: Federal unemployment benefits expire Nov. 30. If Congress does nothing,as many as 2 million people will lose benefits that average $310 per week. It has become increasingly difficult for lawmakers to extend unemployment benefits because Republicans and a growing chorus of Democrats are demanding that the cost of such extensions be financed through budget cuts. 3) Medicare: Under a government formula, the Medicare reimbursement rate for doctors is scheduled to shrink every year. Congress passes legislation each year to avoid the cut. The latest “fix” expires Dec. 1, and Democrats are eager to pass legislation extending it into 2013. More likely, the two parties will settle on a much shorter extension. If Congress does nothing, reimbursement rates will plummet 23 percent. 4) Omnibus spending bill: Fiscal 2011 has begun, but Congress has yet to pass a single spending bill. Instead, the government has been operating under a special measure that keeps spending mostly at 2010 levels. Democrats say they will attempt to pass all the spending bills together, though it is also likely the two parties will not reach agreement and will have to put off the issue until January, keeping the 2010 spending levels in place until then. Plus the DREAM Act and, if they have time, a national sales tax. Let's hope they want to go home and drink spiked egg nog instead.

Hanging to death too could be merciful (if the neck breaks).  For traitors, hanging should be to unconsciousness, at which point the condemned is cut down, disembowled, his innards shown to him, his body drawn and quartered, and the remains prominently displayed.  Now that's a punishment.

55 1) Regarding the tax cuts: I know that the GOP is being principled in wanting them all enacted, but I heard one commenter speculate that they could raise the bar on the wealth threshold to something like $1.5 million/year.  This would mean that it would not effect small business and it would only effect the truly rich -- who vote Democrat anyway.  Personally, I'm all for a progressive tax on legal fees.

Ultimately, I don't worry about this one.  If they let the cuts expire, they'll have angry people in April 2012.  I think Obama wants a fig leaf here.  He doesn't care about the revenue or anything else, he just wants to appear as the defender of those filthy, stinkin' working class folk.

2) Unemployment: Politically, this is a nonentity.  As long as they don't extend them for more than 2 months, it will be long forgotten.  But ultimately, if you don't have a job, you have to stop thinking that one at the same salary is coming along.  This is why a lot of white-collar people don't work temporarily at McDonalds (or another stopgap).  If they were shown to have settled for a lower salary, they'll never get the old one again, no matter how the economy rebounds.

In any case, everyone will forget by January.

3) Something like this will probably happen and I don't really see this as Lame Duck Shenanigans.  I don't think anything will happen now that would be different than in 2012.  I'd think the GOP would want to keep reimbursements up, as the opposite would hasten the call for Obamacare.

4) They won't get an Omnibus bill through.  What I'm afraid of, is that they'll use the expiration of the continuing resolution as a bargaining chip for other things.  We don't want the government to shut down over Christmas, now do we?

What did the Mohammed ever do to deserve this kind of opprobrium? Other than being a murderous, lying pedo sack of murderous hogshit that has caused more suffering to humanity than any other person in history? That includes Obama's other hero, Karl Marx.

78 #14, I rarely met a serious Muslim who wasn't a beggar and swindler at heart. "Oh, SGT Dan, I need this. Oh, SGT Dan, I need that. Oh, SGT Dan, I need an extra day off." The more they made a show of being holy, the more worthless they were. Okay, are we talking about Detroit now?

79 I would submit that the GSM should be properly called 'The Victory Mosque'.

Let's call it what it is, and quit pussyfooting around. Words have meaning, and the left has used them against us for too long.

"The ground zero mosque developers seem to have little interest in propriety and a stunning lack of empathy. Of course. That's how you bring people together. By stepping on their feet."

When the driving strategy behind one's religion is "slave, convert, or dead" empathy is not necessary.  It is, in fact, a hindrance.

@48: "Hanging to death too could be merciful (if the neck breaks).  For traitors, hanging should be to unconsciousness, at which point the condemned is cut down, disembowled, his innards shown to him, his body drawn and quartered, and the remains prominently displayed.  Now that's a punishment."

Hah! I laugh at your touchy-feely, 'I'm Ok, You're Ok' forms of "punishment".

Real punishment is as follows: Hew off an arm with an ax.  Cauterize the wound with boiling tar.  After a sufficient period of recovery, repeat for the other arm.  Let the guy recover, then repeat for each leg.  Then start torturing the trunk.  Finally behead when no more useful information (i.e., his best guess as to his grandmother's recipie for snickerdoodles) can be extracted.

83 It's not even a mosque. It's a rabat. With five stories that are probably going to be used to check compliance with sharia banking. Pajamas media wrote about this back on Sept 10 of this year. We should fight this on sharia grounds as well.

I'll donate $100 towards a strup tease on one side of the mosque and $100.00 towards a multi-denominational "community center" on the other side.  Is  there any one else who would care to match my donation?  Is there any possibility an entire group could get enough money together to do anything like this???American tax payer money MUST NOT be used for a mosque at ground zero, it is a slap in the face.  In fifty to 100 years, it may be different but who knows.
