Raheel Raza, a Muslim Canadian Congress Board Member, ripped into New York City Mayor Bloomberg as a "bleeding heart white liberal" and questioned how building a mosque at a place where Muslims murdered so many other Americans is seen as a sign of respect, saying it was in bad faith-- not to mention flat-out controversial.
Apparently the residents within the state of New York agree. A poll shown within the video also tells that 61% of New York state residents oppose the mosque, compared to a mere 26% support it-- more than a 2-1 margin of opposition over support for the construction of the mosque.
As Raza also says, Bloomberg seems to be catering to a politically correct viewpoint as many liberals tend to do. Of course, this must be done so they can proudly sit high on their horses and preach about how "tolerant" they are compared to evil conservatives.
