Definition of wingnut: Anybody who doesn’t agree with your position. Usually used as an ad hominem attack when your logic is faulty. Used as a means of silencing critics and appearing superior instead of intelligent and open to reasonable discussion. Commonly part of the patois of the pseudo-intellectual elite.

Cordoba. Hmm……wasn’t that the same name as the capital of the Muslim’s conquest of Europe? Clearly, the purpose of Cordoba House is to promote peace and understanding. Of course! Let’s open an Auschwitz Day Spa for Jews, the BlacKKK Apartheid House, the Redneck Wifebeater’s Domestic Violence Retreat, the Tutsi Aid Services for Hutus, Jeffery Dahmer Gay Welcome Center, Idi Amin Steakhouse, the Stalin Siberian Resort for Intellectuals, the Japanese Nanking Entertainment and Social Club and the Taliban Pregnant Widow Assistance Fund while we are at it. CORDOBA House. Qurtaba. It’s not about a car, Michelle. Not about fine Corinthian leather, white-wall tires or Fantasy Island! The writing couldnt be more obvious. Lenscrafters, my friend. Go to Lenscrafters! As a “jurinalist” it is disappointing you are not well-read and don’t really research your stories very well. In a day and time when journalists and the NAACP pick apart someone for using the word “niggardly” even if it has nothing to do with the Spanish word ‘negro’, which only means ‘black’, wouldn’t it actually be refreshing to get some competent fact-checking and truth? God knows we can’t get it from politicians! What other slants of indignation could we expect from you? You probably even think Sambo’ is racist. Of course, you don’t realize it is a mispronunciation of ‘Sambhu’ which was written by a woman, Helen Bannerman, a Scottish woman none the less and, was not written about an African-American child but rather about a Tamil child whilst living in Madras. The book was published in anti-slavery Britain in 1899. Liberals tend to overlook what they want when it is not convenient to their cause and to demonize innoccuous items that fit their agenda. A lot of liberals glamorized Hitler and overlooked his threat as he rose to power as well. I’m afraid that your argument that the resistance is “anti-Muslim” and that Cordoba House is trying to “promote” interfaith relations is bogus. “We want to promote interfaith relations and therefore we are building a prayer room (how big, exactly?) two blocks away from where over 3,000 people were killed.” Not a Jewish Prayer room. Not a Christian Prayer room. A Muslim one. How, exactly, does that promote interfaith relations? Sounds like an upscale mosque to me. God, I hate being lied to by incompetent journalists and politicians. Is there any difference?

I’m sorry. You’re not a professional writer. I’m not trying to be mean. Just honest. You’ve got a lot to learn. Go back to your jazz bar and keep it up as a coat-check girl and getting your freak on with the musicians. Free spirits are bounded by their own narcissism.
