A federal judge in Oklahoma City has issued a temporary restraining order against the Republican-sponsored measure to ban shariah. The order stays in effect until a hearing on November 22.

Oklahoma Republicans can celebrate the passage of their measure banning Islamic law (shariah) from ever being used in court cases (it never has been, but that's a minor point when you're saving America from the Moslem Peril).

If you've read anything by Robert Spencer, you already know that he will blatantly lie when cornered. Today he responds to my piece for the Guardian, with a ridiculous article that calls Pamela Geller a defamed freedom fighter.

I'd say Pamela Geller is off the deep end, but she's so far underwater at this point, the deep end is up. Her latest clumsily written rant warns the world of the creeping sharia and stealth jihad caused by THE SECRET SELLING OF HALAL MEAT IN THE U.S.! In today's Human ...

Robert Spencer gets torn a new nether orifice by Reza Aslan in this segment of the CNN "town hall" meeting on Islam.

Pamela "Shrieking Harpy" Geller is throwing a major tantrum tonight, because the media just refuses to acknowledge her genius. She gives them interviews and what do they do? They paint her as a raving bigoted loon! The nerve! So the harpy strikes back! She will deprive them of her presence and ...
