Sharron Angle Believes Sharia Law Is In The United States

by Stuart Shapiro

Nevada Senate candidate Sharron Angle apparently has some information that the rest of us do not.  She reports that Sharia law has taken hold in two U.S. cities. The AP reports:

“My thoughts are these, first of all, Dearborn, Michigan, and Frankford, Texas are on American soil, and under constitutional law. Not Sharia law. And I don’t know how that happened in the United States,” she said. “It seems to me there is something fundamentally wrong with allowing a foreign system of law to even take hold in any municipality or government situation in our United States.”

Well I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to grab a pitchfork and head out to Michigan or Texas and help those poor innocent Americans living under Sharia.  Oh wait, I live in the real world . . . never mind.
