Artful Dodger:   The Mosque was already at its site before the angry responses from the right about it being expanded.  In addition there are other Mosque which have been close to the Twin Towers before 9/11.  Should we tear all of them?  There are also "adult entertainment" establishments close to ground zero which don't exactly honor the memory of 9/11 victims.

The only arguments against this building seems to center around the prejudice that any Muslim establishment near ground zero is evil because radical muslims were responsible for the attack.  Thus, all muslims should be lumped into the same category.  As you pointed out, W visited mosques to eliminate prejudice against all American Muslims.  If the mosques had a history of supporting terrorist activity, it would be one thing.  But, I haven't heard of any such activity.
