Speaker Pelosi wants to investigate the 9/11 families

Survivors of people who were killed by terrorists at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and on Flight 93, have made their opposition to the Ground Zero Mosque well known. Now Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has called for an investigation of anyone who opposes the building of a Ground Zero Mosque. This is just another example of Democratic leadership finding itself out of step with a majority of the American people. If the Speaker is serious about investigating people who disagree with her, such as 9/11 families, she needs to be replaced immediately.

Here she is, in her own words, via the Washington Post:

"There is no question that there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some," said Pelosi, "and I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded? How is this being ginned up?"
