Thank God! That is absolutely wonderful news!

How those families must be relieved at not having the murder of their relatives turned into a "hate America" exposition!

I'm relieved and I didn't lose anyone close to me on 9-11.

Especially galling about this whole concept was the beautiful name they wrapped it in - "International Freedom Center."

Sounds so high-minded and moral, doesn't it? It would only be upon completion of a tour of this museum that you'd realize that the only "moral" is that America is always to blame, no matter what, no matter where.

In my mind, an "International Freedom Center" would celebrate liberation, not liberalism! But, maybe that's just me. Confused

George Pataki can always be counted on to do the unexpected.
He may be a Liberal Republican head of a Liberal Democratic state but sometimes he surprises everyone.

Thomas Grasso, a man convicted of murder in two states (Minnesota and New York) was serving a life sentence in a Minneapolis prison when Liberal Republican George Pataki, in favor of the death penalty, became governor of New York. For more than a decade prior, Liberal Democrat Mario Cuomo who opposed the death penalty refused to have Grasso extradited to New York (where the death penalty was law). This action by Cuomo infuriated the families of the murder victims and many of the state's citizenry.

In 1994, when Pataki became governor, within weeks Grasso was finally extradited to New York and executed.

I am profoundly pleased that a halt has been invoked for the IFC.

Thank you Mr. Pataki.

I'm very happy, but I dont trust sheep, there is always something in it for them. A jesse jackson- faracon hate resource center would'nt work now or ever. The pressure was effective, point blank. Shocked

I don't know much about this situation.. but I can imagine that if it went through.. that many of the 'cells' and/or other extremist terrorists would take honor in going to the said museum to pat themselves on their backs at their accomplishments. That would have been a BIG mistake on our (American) part...

What do the opposition (moonbats) NOT understand about that?

Then who was responsible for the politically correct, multi-cultural memorial statue? [Remember the one with the NYFD with diverse races represented? When the model photo was not?]
