Jan Brewer (AZ – R) Opening Statement During a Debate – Train Wreck!

I’m pleased to say she’s the governor of a state (AZ) on my banned travel list. Very painful to watch. At about 1/2 through, Jan needed to say, “Cut – let’s start over.” Or, say she’s taken aback by the other candidate’s campaign. Or, something – anything!

What will be located next to the Ground Zero Mosque?

Good question. I’m not sure but would LOVE to help figure it out.

Soho Properties – the developer of the Islamic center – only owns 45-47 Park Place. But, they changed the name of the proposed site from Cordoba House to Park 51…playing off the street number 51 on Park Place in New York.

Major issue: Soho Properties doesn’t own 51 Park Place – Con Ed does. And, they don’t own 51parkplace.com or 51parkpl.com – I do.

So, my goal of building something as equally controversial to 50+% of Americans at 51 Park Place is simple – ha! All I need is a couple million dollars to outbid Soho Properties.

Note: I think freedom of speech/religion is the cornerstone of our country. Build a mosque within blocks of Ground Zero if you think that’s a smart idea. But, I’d love to see which insurance company is underwriting a policy for the proposed location…there are a lot of crazy a$$ Tim McVeigh wannabes ready and willing to rent a Ryder truck.

Update: Donald Trump offers to buy 51 Park Place – http://j.mp/bogSZD.  Mr. Trump, www.51parkplace.com is available too. It’s not going to be cheap though. Holler: bcclistblog@gmail.com.
