Obama/Hillary-Linked Think Tank Implies New Yorkers Aren't Tough Because They Opposed Hosting KSM Terror Trial

Need more proof of how liberal Democrat activists are concerned more about Islamic terrorists than the lives of Americans they want to kill?

Read this Politico story and a quote from Ken Gude from the Center for American Progress (h/t: Kristinn at FreeRepublic).

“Obama and the Department of Justice need to get out there and push back very clearly with the public…Frankly, I thought New Yorkers were made of sterner stuff than this—traffic is going to be disrupted?” said Ken Gude of the liberal Center for American Progress.

The implication? New Yorkers are a bunch of wimps and Obama needs to "get in their face" over their (appropriate) resistance to the idea of having the 9/11 mastermind spew his anti-American rhetoric in this OJ Simpsonesque show trial.

According to DiscovertheNetworks, Center for American Progress head John Podesta was a former Clinton-ite who served on the Obama transition team. The group was initially founded as a Hillary Clinton think tank and is partially funded by George Soro$. One of their offshoots is Media Matters, headed by David Crock. CAP also is one of the groups involved in trying to abolish conservative talk radio from the airwaves.
