The difference between the NRA and the builders of this mosque is that the NRA was stuck. They had everything booked and simple couldn't have changed location that late without it costing a fortune. The logistics would have been impossible. Just canceling wasn't an option either due to the organization's constitution.

You should go to the comedy network's website and watch the video, he showed the clip of Heston's speech. Heston didn't say "we couldn't cancel, sorry it was booked". He gave a long speech about the consitution etc.. to which Stewart effectively said "you were right and I was wrong".
