Beg pardon? What did you say?
The easier thing would have been to uphold Moore's position.
Moore was behaving exactly like the San Francisco Mayor. He was disobeying the law, based on his personal beliefs. Neither one is acceptable.
Actually just the opposite is true, but don't let that effect your myopic view.
Pryor followed the Rule of Law to the letter by prosecuting someone who he personally felt was right in what they did. He supported Judge Moore, and even offered Legal advice and suggested Consittutional Lawyers to Represent Moore in Federal Court. Moore turned him down in all these cases.
When Moore disobeyed the Federal Court order (and don;t even start the specious argument of whether the order was this or that or blah blah blah) --- When Moore DISOBEYED the Federal Court order he broke Alabama Law. He was then Brought up for Judicial Review by ALABAMA LAW. As Attorney General of Alabama it was Bill Pryor's JOB to Represent the State against Judge Moore. Pryor UPHELD the RULE OF LAW and did his Job, even though he disagreed with the ruling Moore Disobeyed.
To say otherwise and to accuse Pryor of doing something unconstitutional , Illegal or immoral is a BLATANT OUT AND OUT IGNORANT LIE AND SLANDER of his good name.
