One of biggest mistakes the Left has made during the Obama presidency is overplaying the race card. Not only do they play the card constantly, they’ve applied it to an ever growing circle of people. In fact, there’s probably not a non-liberal in America who hasn’t been called a racist or a bigot by some prominent liberal since Obama was elected.
A great example of this is the mosque at Ground Zero. Whether you are for it or against it, the most basic argument against it is so plain, simple, and obvious that it’s practically instinctual to most people. Nearly 3000 people were killed by radical Muslims in the name of Islam, so it’s inherently disrespectful to build a mosque on top of their graves. Again, whether you support the Ground Zero Mosque or not, playing the “you hate Muslims” card here is laughable. It would be the like Westboro Baptist Church claiming that people who don’t want them picketing the funerals of soldiers are anti-Christian.
Yet, the core of the Left’s argument has been what? The people who oppose building a mosque at Ground Zero are doing so because of bigotry. This has been a constant, never ending refrain from the Left.
So, let’s see how that assertion squares up with the actual poll numbers on the mosque. First, here’s Rasmussen:
