Remember this sight? The beauty and power it signified? I do. The Twin Towers of The World Trade Center. Every morning when I was coming over the Pulaski Skyway I would draw strength and inspiration from those mighty Towers and today you never even hear the phrase : Twin Towers. It has been scrubbed clean from the American lexicon replaced with the ugly term : Ground Zero. An ugly name for an ugly moment in our country’s history. Now to add insult to injury 2 despicable men are forcing this Victory Mosque down the throats of New Yorkers and Americans across the nation.

When I was down at the Glenn Beck Rally I was approached by Muslims who said that they were angry at the fact that these 2 people were representing all of Islam throughout the country because they were very much against this Cordoba Initiative and the erecting of this Mosque at Ground Zero.

This man Imam Feisal Rauff who is jet setting around the Muslim world being this State Ambassador on our dime claiming he is not recieving monies from these nations is laughable. This man who blames us for 911 and thinks the barbaric Sharia Law actually shares a lot of qualities of our Constitution. Are you kidding me? You know what happens if you leave the Christian faith? Your mother slays you with good ol’ fashioned Irish guilt. Nothing a few pints of Guiness couldn’t cure. You know what happens if you leave Islam under Sharia Law? You are marked for death. I don’t mean the very bad Steven Segal movie I mean dead. Like the father in Texas who beat his daughters to death for dating Italian boys. That’s ok under Sharia. Or the husband and wife team who had a Buffalo T.V. Show called Bridges. A show dedicated to bringing the faiths together with Islam. Only one problem. The wife asked for a divorce so hubby cut her head off. Seriously CUT HER HEAD OFF! Now I’m not going to lie every man alive I’m sure has had those feelings but we do not act on them but in Sharia he gets a free pass. Now Rauffy boy in his spare time has a couple of buildings in Jersey City that he let fall apart into total disrepair. The tenants are living like animals with bed bugs mold and exposed walls with open piping and electrical lines completely exposed. He applies for subsidized funding and gets 2 million dollars that he pockets and does no work on the buildings. Thank you Congressman Menendez. Not to mention he refuses to call Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organizations which his father was a founding member. Yeah Rauffy boy seems like a pillar of the community all right.

Now even more intriguing is Al-Gamal waiter turned real estate mogul. First off where did he work? and are they any shifts opening up over there? In 2005 he put a man in the hospital for not paying his brother’s rent. So badly was the man beaten that he agreed to pay him 15 thousand dollars of which he of course welched. Now he manages to purchase 45 park place for 4.5 million after the owner of the property turned down a offer of 18 million cash! Why? I cannot believe mister thug sweet talked his way down 75% on the price. Then there is another stooge in this dark comedy Hisham Elzanaty. Some money man from Egypt who has been backing our real estate waiter friend from the beginning. Turns out homeboy’s money is a little funny. He was giving thousands to a terrorist front organization for the last decade.

Fellow citizens please let us never forget what happened that awful day and all the people that were taken from us that day. I would not let this group open up a Car Service much less a Mosque.

What a great day we had down at Ground Zero celebrating our 1st Amendment Rights to petition against this completely inappropriate Victory Mosque located right in the shadow of Ground Zero.

People from upstate and even some from out of state all gathered here to let their voices be heard. This has been Blue Collar Corner’s purpose all along to let the Johnny Lunchpale and Sally Housecoat speak out and finally be heard. Thanks to Bob Kunst and his supporters who came from Fla. to fight the idea of this hurtful project and to defend Israel and the freedoms of this nation he organized all the permits to do so. Bob is also running for Congress against a Pelosi-like incumbent a Miss Wasserman Shultz. Your basic liberal nightmare on crack. We wish Bob luck and prayers  my friend and many thanks for your work in fighting this injustice.

I had some great interviews from a couple of young people and a fellow Hard Hat like myself who also paid his dues down in the pit in the many months after the clean-up.

A huge thanks goes out to my dear friend L.V. Spina who has been a great supporter with his stickers and t-shirts and can be found at : ididntforgetidontforgive.com.

We managed to get a couple of hundred signatures that day which was great on a holiday weekend and to all those out of staters : Your a stranger here only once come back real soon we will be needing you. Stay tuned for upcoming events, for the next several weekends we have plans and a candle light vigil. God Bless my friends.

It’s not often I am moved to post a video after just one watch but this one was so powerful I felt compelled to do so.

God bless you young warriors who make it possible for us to sleep at night under your protection. I will make it my mission in life to let my readers , kids and family know without  your sacrifice we are nothing. I am in awe of your dedication and bravery may God bless each and every one of you.

A humble citizen of the United States of America.

P.S. Thanks Marie Z.

There is one group of Islamophobes that infest this city and most of the country and I believe their kind should be eradicated. They hide in plain site and spew forth their dishonest ways in the most cowardly methods. I speak of our elected officials of course. Never have I seen a group of spineless fools fall over themselves to try and show how incredibly tolerant they are even at the expense of our values, safety and mental abuse towards our brave 911 families and our incredibly valiant military.

You should really check out the way this old tax cheat liar and crook talks about the Constitution like he actually gives a damn. I was at the gathering of the 55 Imams at City Hall on Wednesday in disguise and ol’ good and plenty Charlie shows up full of piss and vinegar lying like a rug. Afterwards I thought I needed to bathe in ammonia in case I contracted political herpes. Please check out video:

See this guy doesn’t even answer the question. Well I have finally found the solution to the ” Victory Mosque” issue. Thanks to my very creative and resourceful readers and Mr. Greg Gutfeld of ” Red Eye” ( The conservatives answer to John Stewart) we could test the level of tolerance of Shariff Al Gemal our waiter turned real estate mogul and Imam Feisal 911 is the United States fault Rauff by building a gigantic Gay Cultural Center right next store.

Now if they past that test then we advance to the opening up: Fat Andy’s Pork Store on the other side. I will make sure every employee has a store issued bacon strip apron and an outdoor free pigs in a blanket. All the waste and discarded pork fat and bone I will have to store on the property till the sanitation man comes but I’m sure my fellow Americans will be tolerant of such things after all I will set up the store as a charity feeding those who are hungry. What religion could possibly be against such a merciful charitable act?

What a turnout! It was easily in the hundreds of thousands and the people just kept on coming. There I was with my kids, girlfriend and a very nervous dog who was continually being hydrated by people we did not know. Such a wonderful gathering with a trifecta of faith, family and country that I have never before experinced. Back in my twisted mind I wondered what would happen if Rev. Al and his opposing rally would have come marching through what would have been the outcome? I believe the answer would be he would have been welcomed with open arms. He missed out on a golden opportunity to truly pay homage to Martin Luther King.

The true star I believe was this dear woman who spoke about her son in special forces who loved his country and was so very proud to serve and the awful news she had to tell her grandson about his Daddy’s plane being broke and how he might not make it home. The lump I got in my throat was throbbing as the child ran upstairs to get his toy toolkit so he could fix his Daddy’s plane and he could come home. It is at moments like that you realize just how blessed we are and how we should get down on our knees and thank our creator for all he has given us in particular this great nation who is constantly under attack either from punks with exploding shoes or underwear or fools with SUV’s that don’t go BOOM. Now it seems the field of play has moved to a more stealth-like arena. It takes the form of crooked politicians with personal gain on their mind or a Media that has completely sold out to the left. The new term that is being used is called Lawfare. Using our own laws and freedoms against us with the sole purpose of controlling our daily lives. ” This American system of government will work as long as the politicians do not discover that they can bribe the electorate with their own money.”

You can actually feel these structures and the power that they house.

Another trip down to D.C. that was definately worth it. Anyone else go down we would love to hear from you.

On August 28th, Blue Collar Corner attended Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. The rally was held to unite the American people, honor our troops and applaud the generous work of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation who for 30 years has provided fully paid higher education to the surviving children of the the military’s special operation forces.

On August 28, 1963, 47 years earlier, Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous “I Have a Dream” speech at the very same location. Critics cried blasphemy and supporters hailed it as a commeration of the historic event. Maybe the critics need a history lesson. The Liberal Media should take note of Martin Luther King Jr.’s closing paragraph of his “I Have a Dream” speech: “When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual “Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!” The message was clear 47 years ago just as it was during the Restoring Honor rally. Glenn Beck’s rally was not a race issue or a political playground where rhetoric was thrown around like childish insults. This rally was a genuine attempt to bridge the gap on all differences. The Liberal Media’s attempt to prevent that is almost as oppressive as supporting segregation 47 years earlier. MSNBC reported “Beck and tea party champion Sarah Palin appealed Saturday to a vast, predominately white crowd.” I’m sorry, wasn’t there something mentioned about all of God’s children? But, who knows more than God besides the Liberal Media?

Since Blue Collar Corner is providing history lessons, how about we discuss math? Not since the conundrum of estimating how many jelly beans in a jar have we seen the gross miscalculations on the rally’s crowd attendance.

CBS News actually hired a company, AirPhotosLive.com to estimate the rally attendees. The company’s findings were estimated at 87,000 people with a margin of error of 9,000 raising the total between 78,000 – 96,000.

The New York Times reported that the “rally drew conservative throngs” but no actual number.

NBC, CNN, USA Today, BBC, MSNBC, ABC and Reuters all threw in their hats at tens of thousands or plainly just thousands.

I was there. People lined the steps of the Lincoln Memorial down to the Washington Monument. Entire families were there.

Fox News estimated the crowd to be over 500,000. Some reports even stated high as 1 million attended. However, Glenn Beck stated it the best at the rally when he said “I have just gotten word from the media that there are over 1,000 people here today.”

President Obama weighed in on the event by stating in the Washington Post “It’s not surprising that somebody like a Mr. Beck is able to stir up a certain portion of the country.” Leave it to Barry to alienate and condescend to the American people. Keep on doing this Mr. President, and I can guarantee that you will be voted out just as fast as you were voted in. Lets just hope that the hundreds of thousands who attended this rally agree and send Obama back to Illinois.

Courtney McNaught, 8/30/10

First off I want to thank all of you great patriots who have signed on and taken the 911 Hard Hat Pledge. Your response has been humbling and has restored my faith in humanity and in the greatness of this Nation. As much as this Administration wants to run her down my fellow Americans refuse to cave.

There is not a country on earth that I would rather raise my children in. They are the lights of my life and the United States is the cradle of Freedom and Humanity. Stay strong we are winning. Every day the list increases and public opinion goes our way. We cannot falter for if we do then what’s next? Before you know it the Terror Trials will be here as the World Media mocks us for our weakness for not rebuilding the Trade Center after almost a decade ( talk about a recruiting tool) if I were young Jihadist in training I couldn’t think of a more tempting target. Then the “Ruling Class” will at that point know there is no limit to what they can do to us.

This Mosque issue is so many things. This is when America took a stand and declared ” Enough is Enough” to the Ruling Class. Your Stimulus did nothing except stimulate unemployment, our Health Care bill has already increased the cost to the largest companies in the country which will be felt in our wallets and the job market. The attack against Arizona was despicable and to make matters even more reprehensible is bringing other world leaders here and giving them the pulpit to attack our laws and our way of life and then receive a standing ovation by the Democrats. Pathetic. Stand strong America. As I stood at the Grand Staircase in the Winter Garden after we completed a 4 month renovation after the 911 attacks, Bloomberg promised us construction workers who were drained after 12hr shift work 7 days a week  all the while having to look at the pit of death where all our loved ones lay that we would be whole again. Would I ever have dreamed at that moment we would be talking about putting a Mosque on the ashes of our loved ones only 9 years later? God no but here we are.

This voting cycle will be a telling one. We must beat this narritive back and start returning to the America that we grew up in. It only takes one generation to lose our freedoms. My friends and countrymen let us not be that generation. God bless you and God bless America. Mr. Obama BTW we ARE a Christian nation! who happens to welcome ALL religions.

First of all from the bottom of my heart God bless you all and all the support you are giving this important cause. I am truly humbled beyond words. The greatness of the middle class of this nation is it’s secret weapon for sure.

The blue collar, white collar and pink collars are pushing back at the awful way the ruling class is steamrolling over us with utter impunity and with this disgraceful Mosque idea we say ” Enough is Enough”.

Victims, family members and to all our brave soldiers we hear you and are behind you. We will do everything within the law to open the eyes of this group Cordoba who for public relations has now changed it to Park 51. A name less inflammatory yet they remain ardent in their location and their refusal to change. Some wonderful display of tolerance and change….NOT!

I am blessed to be part of a group that is rock solid in traditional American values. People like Beth Gelinski, Tim Brown and the ever vigilant Debra Burlingame who is a treasure chest of financial information on the very shady activities of our dear Imam Rauff and his sudden departure from the country on our dime to be a bridge to other Muslim nations. Speaking of bridges if you believe that then I want to sell you one. Please come out we will need a big showing to let the nation know we are not taking this one on the chin. Our prayers are our strength and again bless you all.

Here at this link MSNBC gives us some air time.

I knew it! He couldn’t resist. He had to put his 2 cents in on the Ground Zero Mosque issue. Once again he acted in haste and didn’t think this one through. The entire country is 70% to 30 %  against this distasteful Mosque. ‘Ol Barry flaps his gums cause he can’t stand someone else steeling his thunder and now his party is freaking out because they have to deal with the fallout.

This Imam Rauff ain’t no Genie in a bottle. He is one bad man. Between things he has written about an America being Sharia compliant and the shocking comments days after 911 on 60 minutes  and about the United States being an accessory to the crime. For all intents and purposes Bin Laden was made in America.  This is the man to unite us ? How? For the last several weeks Rauff has been globe trotting on the State Department’s dime which of course means you and I are paying for it doing some mock ” Good Will Tour” to show other Muslim nations how to “Bridge-Build with the West. Translation: Raising money for the GZM from the most savage nefarious terrorists groups on earth.

Well not even the “Moderate Democrats”  believe that – if there is such a creature and they’re begging for Barry to backtrack his total support of the Mosque because they have elections coming. Just like a good little small weak leader he tries to put Pandora back in her box. ” I was for the Mosque until I was against the Mosque.”

The Pledge is going incredibly well and support keeps on coming. It should be interesting to see how my union leadership reacts to these events. Do they go with the overwhelming populist support of boycotting the building of it? Or do they do what they are told to do by our Mad Cow Disease-Ridden Mayor? Now that will be interesting. Stay tuned and keep those Pledges coming we are mounting a campaign that would make David Plouff proud. (Obama’s campaign Guru) LOL!

The Mainstream Media fails the Blue Collar Community again. There are finding remains at Ground Zero every day and there is barely a blurb about it anywhere. The only reason I know about it was from my friend Sean who is an iron worker. My fellow Americans the Dead are talking to us! This is not some coincidence. The Media will not report it because it only reminds everyone that  thousands of innocent people were slaughtered that dark day. Well we certainly will heed their calling and make sure this blasphemous structure is never built and to all who have pledged God bless you and your families.

I was not prepared for the passionate response from our military. They are saying things like” What the Hell am I doing in 120 degree heat carrying 40 pounds of equipment and risking my life while the people at home whose freedoms I’m fighting for are allowing this sacrilege to happen”? I don’t know how to respond at first but then at the end of the message he thanks all the good citizens who have made the pledge to stand strong and refuse to contribute to this effort in any way at all.

In almost all of your comments you include God either being with me or blessing me and that I treasure. It’s through Him that we will be victorious. I am worn down to the nub trying to do everything as far as organizing but thanks to the Man upstairs he has been putting people in my life to help and they have been wonderful.

Our loved ones are talking to us from the grave. Please listen to them. This is a stand that will effect the way we behave as a nation for years to come. Let’s show our disgraceful politicians- Bloomberg, Weiner, Cuomo, Schumer and Gillabrand and the crook Rangel. Just saying their names gives me political Herpes lets show them they are NOT our RULERS ! Make the PLEDGE! – Home Page.
