But its not -- it's going to be appealed, and he's keeping it there pending appeal.

You're sure of that?

If it becomes final at some point, and he still refuses to remove it, I'd agree.

Of course. But Judge Moore has been quoted as saying he'll never remove it. I take that to mean that his statue would have to be pried from his cold, dead hands.

Reply: I think there is lot's of room for this to be turned over.

Morris Dees (infamous pervert, liberal media darling) wrote the following letter which somehow was delivered to Judge Roy Moore. http://www.family.org/cforum/fnif/news/a0022569.html

"You might remember that, from the start, I was laying our trial theme, i.e., how this was the act of a lone religious nut in partnership with a fanatical church,[Dees is talking about Dr. D. James Kennedy and the church he pastors "Dr. D. James Kennedy is the most listened-to Presbyterian minister in the world today." http://www.coralridge.org/default.asp "]

Morris Dees, a lawyer challenging the monument, wrote to Ayesha Khan, a lawyer with Americans United for Separation of Church and State. "This is the story that will make this case so dirty that no appeals court will reverse [the district court judge] to make new law."

The problem with that for Morris Dees and the judge trying the case is serious. The letter implies District Judge Myron Thompson may have already made up his mind about the case even before hearing arguments in the case.

So if there is an appeal, it looks like the antics of the famous pervert Morris Dees could be on trial. (Not the antics in this link http://www.zianet.com/wblase/endtimes/dees1.htm but his behind the scenes dealings with this trial.)

Judge Thompson was asked to recuse himself when this letter was made public but refused.

Some interesting comments made by the Judge found here.

In fact, U.S. District Judge Myron Thompson explained Wednesday after closing arguments in the case that the central question he’ll address in his ruling, which he promised by Nov. 18, is what Moore hoped would be the focus all along.

“I think I’ll start my opinion,” Thompson said, “ ‘The issue here is, can the state acknowledge God?’ ”

A few facts about the liberal Thompson.

Thompson, who holds bachelor's and law degrees from Yale University, has issued rulings from the federal bench that:

** Held that Alabama's requirement that college sophomores score 16 on the American College Test to be admitted to undergraduate teacher-training programs had racially "disparate impact" in violation of Title VII;

** Approved a settlement that required the Alabama state post-secondary system to appoint more blacks to presidential, faculty, administrative and other supervisory positions through the use of aggressive recruitment and, if necessary, hiring goals;

** Struck down an Alabama law barring gay and lesbian groups on college campuses from receiving public money or official support, saying the law violated the guarantees of free speech and free association.

This judge also denied the State's motions to dismiss a challenge to Alabama's bans on partial-birth and post-viability abortions. http://www.crlp.org/pr_98_0129.html
