MUSLIM MOSQUE GETS APPROVAL

DuPage County in Illinois has approved the building of a controversial Muslim mosque. A conflict between the religious group's right to practice its faith and the local community's concern about over-development gave way to compromise when the County Board accepted a scaled-back proposal for the mosque.

COMMENTS:
It occurs to me that opposing views can come to good conclusions when those involved put forth serious effort to accomplish things. Those in New York City could learn from this example.  

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I know there’s a big ruckus about us being in Libya, but Obama insists that we are handing over control to the British and the French and will no longer be involved. (Evola ~ Compton, CA)
A. Wanna make a bet?


Q. I never realized that we have tons and tons of radioactive rods in storage pools in this country, like the one that is giving Japan problems. Why? (Kerrie ~ Pasco, WA)
A. Because there is no other place to store it, each nuclear reactor has to store its own spent fuel rods. There is a place in Nevada, the Nevada Test Site, that is highly radioactive, where these things could be stored without adding anything more to the danger than already exists, but you’ll have to ask Harry Reid about that.


Q. According to Yahoo.com and Forbes, three young men have become millionaires by the age of 22 through their own entrepreneurial efforts. Jason Brian, Joshua Dziabiak and Milun Tesovic all started their own businesses as early as age nine and are now millionaires. Isn’t it great to live in a country where that can happen? (Lyle ~ Auburn, CA)
A. Not according to Barack Hussein Obama. They should have been heavily taxed and given a substantial portion of their income to the poor in order to make things more equal. Why should they be able to make and keep that kind of money when you and I cannot?
