Excerpt:
Speaking at the Republican Jewish Coalition's meeting in Las Vegas on Saturday, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie responded calmly, but strongly, to a question about Sharia Law, taking the occasion to address lingering concerns about a Muslim judge he appointed in 2011.
"Sohail Mohammed knows as much about jihad as I do, being an Irish-American kid from Newark, New Jersey," Christie said of the Indian-American judge who immigrated to America as a child. "It is ridiculous and insulting, that because I nominated Sohail Mohammed — that people some how think that means I'm for Sharia Law. It's crap," he said to applause. "And I will not ever apologize for making him a judge — in fact, I'm proud of it."
"Sharia Law won't come into New Jersey," Christie continued, "and to suggest otherwise is nothing more than internet blog B.S."
