I think if we needed any more proof that almost every current GOP support thinks any Muslim is a terrorist in disguise we just got it.

“Hasan said he felt alienated between national Republican leaders on one side railing against the so-called “Ground Zero Mosque” and gays and illegal immigrants and, on the other, state Republican delegates convinced that as a candidate for treasurer he was angling to install sharia finance laws. He said the GOP convention in May was a low point.”

That’s got to be one of the most most fucked up, beyond paranoid statements I’ve ever heard. Sharia FINANCE law? REALLY? Does that mean if you don’t pay your taxes they come and stone you to death?

The worst thing about incidents like this, is that these groups try to pass themselves off as being shining examples of pure, uninhibited American patriotism. If they love their country so much why do they piss all over some of it’s most sacred values so easily?

Sharia finance law is an obsession for some of the folks out there. They hate it that there are financial institutions that will allow Muslims to follow sharia when they make investments or loans.
