Thank God is all I can say about that! Actually he’s not a judge anymore so he doesn’t really deserve the title. Roy Moore is the wacko who, as Alabama Chief Justice, erected a 5,300 pound monument of the 10 Commandments inside Alabama’s judicial building and then refused to remove it when a Federal Court ordered him to do so. That led to his removal as Chief Justice so Moore decided to run for Governor.
Moore believes that God is the sovereign source of America’s laws and government and, after his defiance of the Federal Court Order, became even more a darling of the Christian Right than George Bush. However, his bid to unseat Republican Governor Bob Riley appears to have run into some problems. MSNBC reports the latest poll taken by the Mobile Press-Register shows the ex-judge trailing by a whopping 69-20. Moore is unfazed and claims that his true support doesn’t show up in polls.
Well here’s hoping the Press-Register is right and Moore is wrong. Alabama may not be the center of sophistication for the western world but I find it hard to believe that a majority of people there are stupid enough to elect this fool governor. Then again, there are the new “Educational Standards” in Kansas that say supernatural explanations are “science,” so I guess you never know.
