The message to Pryor was--play ball or your nom will never get out of the US Senate Judiciary Committee.

Nonsense. Pryor is a man of integrity, with RESPECT FOR THE RULE OF LAW!

Any judge who would be intimidated to get confirmed ought to resign, right now!

Anybody who would advocate that a judge should defy a court order from a superior court is unfit to serve in the Federal Judiciary.

Moore should be suspended and probably removed. That has nothing to do with the commandments issue. It has everything to do with adhering to the rules. He violated Canon 1 of the Alabama Code of Judicial Ethics, if nothing else.

Nonsense?

From Americans United's website:

Americans United for Separation of Church and State deplored the Senate committee’s 10-9 party-line approval of Pryor and urged the entire Senate to reject his nomination to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The 11th Circuit hears federal appeals from Alabama, Georgia and Florida.

Read the rest for yourself.

"Rule of Law" is NOT blind obedience or blind enforcement of a law!

Suggest you refer to Walter Williams' exceptional essay on The Rule of Law in America vis a vis a previous generation's judgement of "law followers" at The Nuremberg War Crimes Trials.
