Deeply rooted in arabic culture is their particular sense of honor and saving face. So, don't think that they will just move the mosque somewhere else because it is the "right" thing to do in our eyes. There must be negotiating back and forth (publicly) until a bargain is struck which will appear to the rest of the Middle East as if they got the better deal (thereby saving face and maintaining honor).

Even if she is more moderate politically, it would be impossible for Hillary to undo the damage Obama, Pelosi, and Reid have done to our country without sacrificing her political future. No power on earth would entice me to vote for Obama, even if Hillary were the VP nominee. I look at all Dems with a cynical eye these days. Where are the true patriots? Heard a great quote recently, "Are you an American or do you just live here?"

Mrs. Sherrod was thrown under the bus by the WH. The worst offense was committed by the NAACP. They had the entire video and condemmed her without even fact-checking, then retracted the condemnation. Now, these same people are trying to make up to her via the media. You cannot un-slap a face. She was recounting her personal journey and how it has manifested a positive force in her life. Nobody got the point. Wed, 21 Jul 2010 14:52:00 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/laborunionreport/2010/07/21/context-is-everything-naacps-jealous-snookered-himself/#IDComment87877324
