How is calling me a liberal and questioning where I get my information helpful at all in this debate? (Btw, I listen to right wing talk radio daily and never watch TV).

If the imam claimed this was a monument to terrorism I would agree the mosque is in bad taste. If I held all Muslims or Islam itself responsible for 9/11 I would agree the mosque is in bad taste.

Since I don't see clear evidence otherwise (only conjecture), I view this as reasonable Muslims trying to build a place of worship (and swimming). I am honestly trying to understand why the opponents feel the way they do.
