Building a place of worship on State property? To me, that is more offensive to me than building a mosque near Ground Zero.
This should be a non-issue. Its not like they are building a mosque right at Ground Zero, its near it, not at it. I wonder how far away it would need to be for Palin to be OK with it? Something tells me the entire island of Manhattan would be off limits to her. But, then again, it does not surprise me coming from her - her recent babbling has made me somewhat happy McCain lost the election - and I voted for him.
