Rick Santorum: "sharia is evil"

After the Iowa primary, seeing Santorum rise to the top, I began thinking of what I remembered of him, and his stance on Islam, sharia and jihad.  Thanks to Jihad Watch, my mind was jogged.

This is from May of 2011, and it speaks volumes why he would make a good POTUS.

Rick Santorum: Sharia 'is evil'

DURHAM, N.H. — Rick Santorum on Friday asserted that Sharia law has no place in America.
“Jihadism is evil and we need to say what it is,” he said at the Strafford County Lincoln-Reagan dinner, remarks that show how the former Pennsylvania senator continues to establish himself as the candidate most-aligned with the Republican Party’s conservative base.

“We need to define it and say what it is. And it is evil. Sharia law is incompatible with American jurisprudence and our Constitution.”

Santorum, invoking New York Rep. Peter King’s hearing this week on the alleged radicalization of American Muslims, said that the “vast majority” of Muslims don’t want to it either.

“They left because of Sharia law,” he said, referring to why he believes Muslim immigrants left their home countries to come to the United States.

Santorum added, “Sharia law is not just a religious code. It is also a governmental code. It happens to be both religious in nature an origin, but it is a civil code. And it is incompatible with the civil code of the United States.”

The audience loudly applauded.
