It's not a great sign for a GOP candidate to be questioned about his loyalty to the Constitution, on Fox News no less.
But there was former Godfather’s Pizza CEO
Herman Cain talking to Chris Wallace about ... see if you can guess ... Muslims!
The people in Murfreesboro, Tenn., who want to
stop the construction of an Islamic center have a strong ally in
Cain, who says that not only should the town be allowed to ban mosques, but that it wouldn't be any sort of violation of the constitutional right to freedom of religion whatsoever.
Much like his proclamation that he
wouldn't hire a Muslim for his presidential cabinet, will we see Cain
blame the media for talking about this, too?
Wallace: This isn't Ground Zero in New York City. This isn't hallowed ground. Don't Americans have a right, of whatever religion, under the Constitution, which you speak so much about, to free speech and freedom to worship?
Cain: To the people in Murfreesboro, it is hallowed ground. They are objecting to the intentions of trying to get Sharia law. Now that judge may have ruled, but this case isn't over with yet. I believe it'll go all the way to the Supreme Court. It's not hallowed ground, it's hallowed ground to the people of Murfreesboro.
WALLACE: But couldn't any community then say 'We don't want a mosque in our community'?
CAIN: They could say that. Chris, let's go back to the fundamental issue that the people are basically saying that they're objecting to. They're objecting to the fact Islam is both a religion and a set of laws, Sharia law. That's the difference between any one of our other traditional religions where it's just about religious purposes. The people in the community know best, and I happen to side with the people in the community.
WALLACE: So, you're saying any community, if they want to ban a mosque ...?
CAIN: Yes. They have a right to do that. That's not discriminating based upon religion.
So the correct answer is ...Constitutional? yes.....smart? YES!!!
I will admit, I highly disagree with the Muslim religion, but the First Amendment clearly states that there is to be freedom of religion in America. That freedom ends, however, when it violates another's Constitutionally given rights. Building the Islamic Center will not violate anyone's rights. Creating a law that prevents it will.
America is the proverbial "Melting Pot." There are hundreds of nationalities that didn't come to settle this country, but are here and welcomed nonetheless... and that includes Muslims.
have any interference from other religions. I do not believe in
organized religions but believe in everyone's right to worship as
they believe. I know that God is everywhere and do not need a
church to worship Him or to pray. If others find it necessaty then
that is your right.....Freedom of speech & Religion.
Take your bigotry and SHOVE IT.
Not all muslims are terrorists but nearly all terrorists are muslim...

Terrorist Attacks on U.S. Soil by Group, From 1980 to 2005, According to FBI Database

prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Second is the history behind mosques and the fact it is still going on. Most mosques around the world are erected over christian churches that have been destroyed and where the people were slaughtered by muslims. I know most leftys like that idea but they'll change their tune when it comes close to home. The mosques are not just a prayer house they are a symbol of dominance over that area or country.
They have a rule or teaching in the Koran that states for them to take dominion over any territory they come to, but if they can't do it out right then they are to settle in that place and gain in numbers until they can take over. The muslims have stated that they are going to allow America destroy itself from within. There are so many fools in the left that are ignorant about the past, present and the future. They are just ignorant about life. Other countries and people are not playing games. Now if the mosques were part of a religion that wasn't in complete opposition to all americans and bent on destroying it, then there would be no problem with them building it. Not all people are blind by political cor...

I believe the founding fathers would have more common sense than to allow the enemy to set up shop down the street by twisting their own law knowing they intend to kill them.
I ask you this question there are muslims that have said to american reporters in round about ways that they don't support the real islam. I ask you this, how many of the CAIR groups and others have stood out vehemently against the extremist? How many have denounced their imams as evil and to stop doing what they are doing? NONE! Why? Because they are scared or in league with them. One of the two.
