First step, pat? >> well, joe, i think youre exactly right. many religions, different religions in this country, have had really people hostile to them. there are millions of faithful, good american muslims. and pentecostals, and everything else. i agree with that 100%. and there is a clear constitutional right of the folks who have put that -- who have that property to build a mosque there, if its zoned that. and the question is, though, look, we are a pluralistic society, we have all these con...

Was buried or saw his world, his religions, included, wiped out, by us. what are we, then, mr. gingrich? and by the way, a point mr. gingrich has not even whispered as he has shouted fire in a crowded theater, when the implications of cordoba were made clear to the backers of this project, the property developer changed the name. theyre already compromised. we are calling it park 51 because of the backlash to the name cordoba house, he told "the financial times." it will be a place open to all n...

Because theyre militantly islamic. i agree with you joe, theres 100 mosques in new york city. theyve got every right. theyve got every right to build it right there. the question is, is this wise, and is this sensitive? look, they said they wanted to build it in order to make reconciliation, harmony, peace. clearly that objective has failed, joe, because it is enormously divisive. it is tearing us apart. if their objective has failed, why dont they step forward and say, look, we wanted this as a...

second. >> yeah. >> when he did the same exact thing last year. >> but when he can throw a fastball 100 miles an hour, you dont have to have 140 iq. >> all right. thanks, mike. coming up next, the must-read opinion pages. also the obama mosque issue is already appearing in a new campaign ad. oh, its sad. were going to show it to you when we come back on "morning joe."

Native american lived or died or was buried or saw his world, his religions, included, wiped out, by us. what are we, then, mr. gingrich? and by the way, a point mr. gingrich has not even whispered as he has shouted fire in a crowded theater, when the implications of cordoba were made clear, the project manager changed name. theyre already compromised. we are calling it park 51 because of the backlash to the name cordoba house, he told "the new york times". it will be a place open to all new yor...

>> speaks to how we as american will honor the memory of those who were killed, murdered by -- by terrorists on september 11th. and the fact that the president, again, is showing a deafness, if you will, to what those feelings are, what that sentiment is, its just, quite frankly, frums traiting. and i think its part of a prp broader agenda that will come back to bite this november. >> if we shut down -- shout down a mosque and community center because it is two blocks away from the site where fr...

Cycle. the white house political operation probably should have given the leadership up on the hill maybe a heads up that the president was going to make those comments. but they didnt. so thats why rahm emanuels been on the phone, working the phones, talking to democrats, saying simmer down, lets ride this thing out. lets not make it a bigger deal than it is. you saw harry reids spokesman had to put out this comment yesterday essentially saying he respects the first amendment but thinks the mos...

Senate race, that he needs to comment about a mosque thousands of miles away. a lot to talk about today. other than the mosque, as well. and to do it were going to bring in some friends. of course, mike barnicle. he of depends-wear, according to what he said on "way too early." in washington, msnbc political analyst pat buchanan. and also msnbc chief washington correspondent norah odonnell. pat, you are looking good. back from your monaco vacation. we had e-mails yesterday of people talking abou...

This as a wedge issue for democrats leading up to november. they say theyre going to put them in the hot seat and make them publicly say whether they support or disavow the building of the community center/ground zero mosque. i think, you know, whats striking is how far the right has come since the days of even george bush, who, you know, in the aftermath of 9/11 said, look, we have to understand that al qaeda is not islam. and now you have a party that is really embracing a very vitriolic, divi...

Almost could not avoid the subject. my feeling was that if he had put together what he said saturday and friday together on friday night, i think he would be better off. he would say, look, this is their decision up there whether they should do it or not, but certainly theyve got a constitutional right to do it. i think right now whats going to happen, joe, is that the democratic candidates in all kinds of districts are going to take the harry reid road. theyre going to say theyve got a right to...
