Greg Sargent reports that in an interview with Lars Larson, Sharron Angle has semi-explained where she got the cockamamie idea that Sharia Law had come to America:
LARSON: Now did you say though that Sharia law was in place in Dearborn right now?
ANGLE: I had read that in one place, that they have started using some Sharia law there. That's what I had read.
Of course, whatever Angle "read" (no doubt on FoxNews.com) was utterly false as Mayor John O'Reilly told her in a letter.
But while it's bad enough that Republicans nominated this lunatic who believes every crazy conspiracy theory she "reads," her quasi-apologia only addresses half the story, because she didn't just say that Sharia Law had spread to Dearborn. She also said it had spread to Frankford, Texas. The only problem with that: Frankford doesn't exist.
