Aug 21, 2010Ron Paul on the Mosque Fiasco
Ron Paul is a rare example of a politician who gets better with age. In this statement he scores a direct hit on conservative anti-mosque hysteria:
“The debate should have provided the conservative defenders of property rights with a perfect example of how the right to own property also protects the 1st Amendment rights of assembly and religion by supporting the building of the mosque.“Instead, we hear lip service given to the property rights position while demanding that the need to be “sensitive” requires an all-out assault on the building of a mosque, several blocks from “ground zero.”
