Selective Sensitivity

Barack Hussein Obama, umm, umm, umm claims he will not take a stand on the wisdom of the decision to build a mosque at the Manhattan site of the 9/11 Muslim extremist attack.  He stated, correctly, that Muslims have a right to practice there religion in the US including building a mosque on private property in lower Manhattan.  Once again, however, he missed the point of the objection that Americans have against the 9/11 site mosque.  Most Americans (62%) agree Muslims have a right to build a mosque where ever they want in the US but feel strongly (67%) it is highly insensitive to the feelings of the families of 9/11 victims.

Recall about a month ago Obama criticized Israel's decision to build more settlements on their own land in Jerusalem.  Even though they have a right to build the settlements, Obama said, it would be insensitive to the feelings of the Palestinians. Obama publicly chastised Israel and humiliated their prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the decision.

Once again Obama is more concerned about the sensitivity of Muslim Palestinians then the sensitivity of Americans in general and the 9/11 victim families in particular.

How can he be on the wrong side of so many disputes. He must really hate this country, just as Jerimiah Wright does.
