I would love to see candidate Gingrich (and President Gingrich) take on CAIR (Council of Angry Islamic Radicals). Something that is long overdue.

BTW, I thought Gingrich’s answer to the question about whether he would allow Muslims in his administration was astute and brilliant. Wish I could find it so I could post it here.

“It would depend entirely on whether they would commit in public to give up Shariah,” Gingrich said.

“A truly modern person who happened to worship Allah would not be a threat, a person who belonged to any kind of belief in Shariah, any effort to impose it on the rest of us, would be a mortal threat,” Gingrich told the crowd, adding that he’s “totally opposed” to Shariah law being applied in American courts and favors a federal law that “preempts” its use.

The question was about a Muslim running for President - which would be different than a Muslim being part of his administration...

CAIR said the release was prompted by the candidate’s remarks Tuesday in Columbia when, asked if he would ever endorse a Muslim running for president.

“It would depend entirely on whether they would commit in public to give up Shariah,” Gingrich said.

“A truly modern person who happened to worship Allah would not be a threat, a person who belonged to any kind of belief in Shariah, any effort to impose it on the rest of us, would be a mortal threat,” Gingrich told the crowd, adding that he’s “totally opposed” to Shariah law being applied in American courts and favors a federal law that “preempts” its use.
