For the second time in his career, Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore faces charges before the Alabama Court of the Judiciary and potential removal from office.

Until that court hears and rules on those charges, Moore will be suspended with pay from his position atop the state's highest court.

On Friday, the Alabama Judicial Inquiry Commission forwarded charges to the commission, accusing the chief justice of violating judicial ethics in his opposition to same-sex marriage.

S’okay. The people of Alabama will just re-elect him.

I usually agree with Roy but he loves to grandstand

Alabamans know this

He’s a great self promoter

Its just you and me Simon...lol

Freepers get cranked up and there’s no stopping them

Roy is a character and I actually do like him

But he lives to find a way to get a headline and he’s found one yet again

Yes....his hearts in the right place and he drives Dees and Potok and Cohen nuts which is good enough

But he don’t walk on water

Roy is getting old....maybe he covets Bentleys office when he finally gets kicked out

Nick should run for governor....hed be a landslide

“Upholding the Constitution [to include that of one’s own state,] is now a criminal act thanks to the left. The Revolution can’t come soon enough.”

Added the bracketed part. It is much of what Judge Moore is trying to do.

States are now puppet-slaves to the Federal government.

Lincoln-worship and fears of heresy aside, and with an obvious acknowledgement that black slavery was an abomination, we must be able to state: Lincoln started us down this road to serfdom.

John 16:2-3, “They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.”

I really do understand his passion and goals but this was not the way to go about this.

The irony is that Rule of Law makes it very clear what steps to take next to oppose gay marriage. Steps the no-one is taking! I see no novel legal challenge to Obergefell starting up. I see no federal marriage amendment brewing. I see none of the legal remedies being pursued while people are very angry about this!

This is an excellent responses I will answer even though I think you meant it to be rhetorical.

When you say lower courts SHOULD ignore it that simply isn’t how the Rule of Law works. Lower courts are bound by the rulings of higher courts without exception. If you don’t like the outcome you change the underlying legislation. Or you mount a campaign for a constitutional amendment. Or you mount a novel legal challenge. Or you remove it from the courts jurisdiction in some fashion. You don’t simply ignore it. A Supreme Court ruling isn’t the end of the legal road.

As for your question about murder I’ll take a shortcut and assume you are pro-life (even though there are a lot of libertarians on FR.) If you are pro-life you likely assume that Roe v. Wade legalized murder across the board in the first trimester of pregnancy. And ALL lower courts have accepted this ruling as binding until it is reversed or revised. That’s the proper order of law being followed.

If you don’t like that outcome the options to you are made clear by the Rule of Law. Simply ignoring the court ruling isn’t one of them.

We are finding out who the real conservatives are aren’t we? Those Southern Republicans who were supposed to stand up for family values—where did they go? They were fair weather conservatives many of whom were Rockefeller plants.

Like Ambrosia Starling has a real biological need to dress like a freak. Poor Ambrosia would just die if he/she had to dress like a normal human being. Dress like a man Ambrosia then dress like a freak on the weekends at your glbt nightclubs nobody cares what you do there.

A brilliant mind mixed with evil is the most dangerous combination, reminds me of Dr. Mengele.

Remember what the Bible says: “Woe to those who call evil good.” They always do that in one form or another whether it is Communism, Nazism, Islam or any other ideology.
