I ponder the nature of justice when I see these recumbent statues behind the New York Supreme Court in lower Manhattan.

Mosque Tempest in a Teapot
Thursday, August 19th, 2010My own personal conspiracy theory is that this whole brouhaha about the ” Ground Zero Mosque” was originated from a neo-con slush fund. If that’s the case it only cost them $18,000, quite a bargain. 
Mosque a long shot to be built
The efforts to launch the $100 million Cordoba House (now dubbed Park51) two blocks north of the World Trade Center site have been an uphill battle from the start, and not just because of controversy. And even as the “Ground Zero Mosque” emerges as a hotly debated national symbol, New York government officials and real estate insiders are privately questioning whether the project has much chance of coming to fruition.
The Cordoba Initiative hasn’t yet begun fundraising for its $100 million goal. The group’s latest fundraising report with the state attorney general’s office, from 2008, shows exactly $18,255 — not enough even for a down payment on the half of the site the group has yet to purchase.

Yeah, I know, it’s a rat with a fuzzy tail, but rats are pretty cute too if you ignore the naked tail, and it’s not in your kitchen.
