I have suggestion for a replacement for the monument. A tasteful sign:
The Ten Commandments The Basis for the American Common Law
Were removed
As a result of a lawsuit
by the
ACLU
The
SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER
And
AND THE FOLLOWING PLAINTIFFS:
STEPHEN R. GLASSROTH
MELINDA MADDOX
BEVERLY HOWARD
Who claimed in a court of law that they found the monument offensive.
Perhaps the sign should be encased in glass and lighted so that it may be read at night.

I would just add to this one more statement:
The commandments that they objected to being placed here, in case you haven't read them, are as follows:
etc.
SO that the ten commandments would be posted but as a part of an explanation of why they were removed!!!
WOW - WHy would that not work? At least the ACLU would have to launch another expensive legal battle over it.
Then after the court said this sign had to come down the next step would be to post that court's ruling in a public place etc. etc.
It would go on and on and the commandments would be there and the ACLU would spin its liberal wheels forever.
