“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.

— Sharron Angle, Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate.
“She … maligned the city of Dearborn and I consider that totally irresponsible. If she wants to come here, I will take her on a tour. I will show her we follow the Constitution just as well as anyone else.”
— Jack O’Reilly, Mayor of Dearborn, Michigan.
