Trust me. The possibility that the mosque will be build on that site is dead. And so it should be.

Trust you? You can't even make a coherent argument but we should trust your conclusions?

There are a lot of reasons why it might not be built. Public opinion is pretty short on the list. If it takes 3 years to get funding, the public won't care about it in that time period. They will be up in arms over something else that the RW has ginned up as some horrible thing that will destroy America.

You are confused-again. I did not ask you to trust me about whether the building should be erected. Why would I do that? I asked you to trust me that the building will not be erected on that site. And you need not even do that, since it should be clear even to you that the mosquerteers are giving up, as they ought to, and as they have to.

Don't your fonts contain lower case letters? It is considered rude to shout.

Come again?

But when you bring up public opinion in the framework of democracy and elected persons acting on that public opinion then it IS a constitutional issue. When the government acts, it can only act under the framework of the constitution. If the government stops the building of a mosque it becomes a Constitutional issue.

Sometimes a hammer is needed to bring across some simple idea.

I guess you have no need to piss or crap. Even birds do it.

Can 't deny THAT.

It even tried arguing that if anyone tried to stop it, that would be illegal. (That was the red herring argument of Obama's Ramadan speech).

It WOULD be illegal to stop it, and it's not a red herring in any way. It's against the law to discriminate based on religion.

It is not be illegal to try to stop it by the use of public opinion (as was done) but it would not be legal to argue that the group did not have the right to erect the building. But, in a democracy, the use of public opinion is never illegal, since it is protected by the First Amendment. And, apparently it has been stopped by public opinion. If you think that is illegal you are free to sue.
