Those of you wondering what's up with the $500,000 convention hotel study will be happy to know it's just getting started, and Prime Buzz says Councilwoman Cindy Circo and businessman Bill George are co-chairing the committee studying whether to build the hotel. The group already agrees that the city needs a convention hotel to compete for the biggest and bestest conventions out there, but Circo says they need to study the risk.

"We don't want to do this at any cost," Circo said.
Oh, well we've already spent $500,000 to study building a hotel when we all know that it's going to get built. So it's hard to claim that the hotel isn't inevitable and they "don't want to do this at any cost."

The group meets in Bartle Hall the fourth Monday of every month at 3 p.m. Stop by and tell them how excited you are about the idea.

Who the hell concluded developing a mosque at ground zero would be recommended? I am no great fan of either Glen Beck or Sarah Palin however as compared to Obama and his supremely senseless current administration, those two are geniuses, get real North america, there is certainly plenty of weird stuff happening here.

Do you think the hotel's construction is a given? I would hope there would be enough backlash (thanks to David Martin's original story and evidence from other cities) to block this shit from happening.
