Good article. I was thinking the same thing this morning. How can some small time crack-pot with one of the most ridiculous ideas become such a factor in current events. Its amazing to me that this guy is now going to get a meeting with the Imam of the Ground Zero mosque, and that he seems to think he is some major player in what is going to happen with that decision. Its hilarious. And all the time you see this guy, you know that he doesnt really have any ideas, plans or anything concrete about the issues, he's just going along for the ride now. Its recieved way more attention than he even bargained for.
