Ground Zero Mosque Opponents Have a Lot of Work to Do

So there’s going to be a shopping mall literally in the ground of Ground Zero. “Below-grade” means “in the ground.” The Ground. In other words, Sarah Palin and her entire gaggle of various babies and ghost writers can visit Ground Zero and honor the heroes and victims of 9/11 while trying on tankinis at Juicy Couture (or whatever clothing stores end up there) constructed within the actual ground of Ground Zero.

This bears repeating: unlike Park 51, which is blocks away, there’s going to be a 55,000 square foot mall under the same ground where people fell to their deaths on that terrible day. Ground that’s mixed with the remains of the dead. A mall.
