Screecher Terry Jones of the Church of "Jeehad Ain't just for Muzzlims" is an ass-tard. And his followers are brainless tardlets. They are giving Asshat Church leader Fred Phelps a serious challenge in the competition to drive sane people away from the cause of Christ.
It ain't just about the troops
General Petraeus says it is, and I believe him. I hate to find myself on the same side as President Obama and his administration, but this is a needless provocation, and now it looks like the pyro freakshow may be cancelled. That's a good thing, but I don't want it called off for the wrong reason. A great nation should not allow its actions to be dictated by bug-eyed nutbags screaming rage from the vermin-infested toilets they call home. And anyway, hasn't the Muslim Rage-ometer already been pegged for years now?
It's about our democratic experiment
We enjoy a variety of beliefs and cultures in this country and they are not all compatible. We don't go around flagrantly denigrating the beliefs of others, unless we're Hollywood or the Democratic party. It's part of the social contract. Unless some big issue bubbles to the surface, we pretty much leave each other alone and try not to offend.
This act violates that tacit contract. It is meant to incite hatred and raise money. Like the Ground Zero mosque, it is legal but irresponsible, and sure to burn bridges not build them. Actions such as these, and the enraged reactions they engender, only hasten our slide into third-world bedlam. This is America, not Pakistan or Paris.
Our Culture is Superior
Think about it. We peacefully state our opposition to that mosque, while Muslims worldwide threaten to riot, kill and burn and bomb all over a book burning. This is why we can say with certainty that our culture is superior, despite small infestations of zealous firebugs.

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf told CNN that the discourse surrounding the center has become so politicized that moving it could strengthen the ability of extremists abroad to recruit and wage attacks against Americans, including troops fighting in the Middle East.Somebody has to be the adult and do the right thing, and of course that's us.

Nevermind that maybe some in this country think our American values are under attack. We can't expect the diaper rash ranting children with knives and guns and torches violently defending the "religion of peace," to grow up...
We don't scream like a pack of human hemorrhoids every time someone has the temerity to disagree with us. We believe in God but we know we are not His Flaming Sword of Vengeance. He said "Vengeance is Mine," and we believe Him. We have a constitution and we hold ourselves to it. We will also use that constitution to snuff any European-style Sharia when it dares rear its misogynist head here in the civilized world.
So a miniscule assembly of dingbats will burn some Korans, and cash will flow into Imam Ralph's Victory Mosque as a result.
I'm beginning to understand atheists...
