So apparently Speaker Pelosi in her infinite wisdom wants those opposed to the 'Ground Zero' mosque to be investigated in order to find out who is funding them.

Speaker Pelosi's statement:

Quote
“The freedom of religion is a Constitutional right.  Where a place of worship is located is a local decision.

“I support the statement made by the Interfaith Alliance that ‘We agree with the ADL that there is a need for transparency about who is funding the effort to build this Islamic center.  At the same time, we should also ask who is funding the attacks against the construction of the center.’

“For all of those expressing concern about the 9/11 families, we call upon them to join us in support of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act when Congress returns in September.”

These are the people that the Speaker of the House of the United States of America, the Hon. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) wants to investigate:

GREATEST SARCASTIC RESPONSE EVAH.

From Fox News:

Quote
A Republican aide ridiculed Pelosi's claim that there was a "conspiracy" to oppose the project.

"If the speaker needs help finding the heart of the 'GOP GZM Conspiracy,' I urge her to ask Sasquatch," the aide told Fox News. "His office is behind the black helicopter hangar between the unicorn pen and the leprechaun's pot of gold."

FUCKING PRICELESS!!!!!!!

She is in full-on panic mode, knowing that come November, her nasty ass will be packing up and getting the hell out of the Speaker's Office.

From Wench's link:

Quote
"I think everybody respects the right of everyone in the country to express their religious beliefs. ... The decision, though, as to how to go forward in New York, is up to New York," Pelosi told local reporters in San Francisco. "I look to my colleagues in New York. Some of them have different views on the subject. It's up to them to work it out."

So she's just fine with New Yorkers deciding how to go forward with this, but she's not ok with Arizona residents voting for something and passing it into state law.  Shouldn't the decision as how to go forward in Arizona be left to Arizona?

Yes, but only if it fits her agenda.
