Roy Moore refused to obey the law; violated his oath of office; and didn't even have the deceny to resign on a matter of principle--he was removed from office in an 8-0 vote by the other Alabama Supreme Court justices.
Moore does not in any way represent true conservative values as any conservative I know understands them (respect for the law, even if you disagree with it, honoring your oath of office). It seems Alabama conservatives see through his charade of wrapping the shroud of Christian-ness around himself in a shameful, sanctimonious, display of piety, hypocrisy, and demagogy.
Not to mention his crude attempts to demonize his opponents as "anti-God; anti-American; and anti-Christian".
"I-am-the-chief-justice, I-am-the-law" Roy Moore richly deserves the defeat that is going to be handed to him by the voters.
My how he rubs you the wrong way. As for me, there are few men alive today that I respect more than Roy Moore.
I think you nailed it. Call Moore anything you want, just not "conservative".
