The Ground Zero one?

Hmm, interesting. Kudos to him for having the balls to do so, though I'm sure a lot of people will dislike him for it...

He didn't really have the balls. Once he realized how it polled, he revered his comments. He said he was just talking about the legality of it, and not the wisdom of actually doing it.

He tried to distance himself from it, but it was to late.

He didn't reverse his comments. He clarified them, he never said he thought it was wise to build a mosque there, just that nobody should interfere with their right to.

I thought you'd be a big fan of that, he's basically protecting the constitution.

I don't have a problem with what he said, or the right to build the center there.

I do have a problem with them doing it though.

For example, I don't have a problem with the right for someone to be racist, but I do have a problem with someone being racist.

Being a free country means we should be free to do things that others hate. This would be that case. I am firmly on the side of the peoples legal right to build it, and at the same time, I think they are assholes.
