It's not a mosque, it's a Prayer Room



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

And so it explodes into dust. Gene Robinson on Countdown, saying in effect: "It's not a mosque, it's a community center with Prayer Room" (about 1:30 into the clip below).



A Prayer Room. If Park51 is a Mosque, then the Intel office in Cairo is a Mosque, and the Motorola office, and the Audi office. They all have "prayer rooms" so that devout Muslims can . . . pray. It's what Muslims do, several times a day. They usually look like offices. They're usually labeled "Prayer Room."

Every Western company in a Muslim country has a Prayer Room. Are all of these offices really Mosques?

And that's the central lie, both obvious and invisible.

There's an Action Opportunity in here. We could push to get corporate offices with prayer rooms labeled "Mosque". I'm serious; the campaign could start now.

Rule 14: Use their lizard brains against them. It's money in the bank.
Someday I'll give the whole list. This one is powerful though, and one that can be applied now.

(Hint: When there are many, start with one and stick with it. That's Rule 17. I stole it from Walter Reuther. So who — Intel? Moto? Nike? Pick one and just do it.)

(Yes, I named "Harry Reid" in the tags. Fourth-and-goal and you threw an interception, sir.)

UPDATE: And as Briann points out in the comments, the Pentagon may be a Mosque as well. (Gasp!)
