Why would there not be?

I'll believe it when I see it. I have doubts there will be a synagogue inside.

You'll find something else to complain about when the synagogue is included..

Oh my, you had to follow links?

Actually, it was 14% want it moved (not 17% - accuracy is everything, CF), 43% like what it is and where it is, and 30% thinks it should be an interfaith ins ution. So, by following the links we learn 43%, or less than half of American Muslims, support the Ground Zero Mosque. No?

Or conversely, 73% like the Mosque and think it should also include other faiths.
14% Do not support the mosque.

Your spin is weak.

Dammit! Sorry Oh Gee! You already posited that.

Dammit! Sorry Oh Gee! You already posited that.

furthermore, we have zero clue why that 14% opposes it. the fact that 14% of muslim americans polled are opposed is not all that instructive without asking other questions of them.

Like most people, they're probably sick of hearing about it.

Is enforcement of the Cons utionally defined "inalienable right" of freedom to practice religion subject to popularity contest voting?

I think it will simply be a mosque.

Even a Muslim argument against its construction could be due to other people's Islamophobia. The poll could have been fleshed out more.
