But for the bomb, the four would be in their 60s, probably grandmothers. Three were 14 and one was 11 in 1963 when the blast killed them in the 16th Street Baptist Church, which is four blocks from the law office of Doug Jones, who then was 9. He was born in May 1954, 13 days before the U.S. Supreme Courts Brown v. Board of Education school desegregation decision. He was 16 when he attended, at this citys Legion Field, the Alabama Crimson Tide vs. the University of Southern California Trojans football game in which USCs Sam Cunningham, an African American all-American, led a 42-21 thumping of the home team, thereby (so goes the much-embellished but true-enough story) advancing the integration of the region through its cultural pulse, college football. Roll Tide.
As a second-year law student, Jones cut classes to attend the 1977 trial of one of the church bombers, Robert Dynamite Bob Chambliss. In 2001 and 2002, as U.S. attorney, Jones successfully prosecuted two other bombers. Was there resentment about this protracted pursuit of justice? No, he says as he nurses with tea a voice raspy from campaigning, because after 9/11 intervened, punishing domestic terrorism was not controversial. Today, this son of a steelworker stands between Roy Moore an Elmer Gantry mixing piety and cupidity: He and his family have done well financially running a foundation and the U.S. Senate seat vacated by Jeff Sessions.

Pay him no mind, hes old news.
Noise. Nothing but noise. GOPe trying hard ,but not yet able to bring down Moore’s poll numbers enough. Posturing from swamp Senators will become even more hysterical with each passing day until desired result. Like a spoiled brat screaming and stomping his/her feet louder and louder until they get their way. Hopefully Alamabamians ignore the noise.
>> Roy Moore is an embarrassment
Based on allegations alone? GFY, Will.
the deep state and the elites are in control....
Want on or off this ping list? Just drop me a FReep mail.
Follow Judge Moore on Twitter.
Oh, crap - now that those words have been spoken, right or wrong, that makes you an embarrassment who should stop spouting crap for public consumption.......right?
Bush 31 accused of assaulting 16 yr old in 2003

Being ignored by LSM, as as Mendez (D) over a non incident 40+yrs ago that would/should have been brought froward, when Moore was running against Toxic Mitchs pet poodle. GOPe establishment cant stand to have a Constitutional, Conservative, Real Christian in the US Senate, it would upset their RINO balance.
You’ve posted the ‘Bush 31’ spam mistake many times already. Are you a bot?
The NeverTrumper atheist Will has spoken. He makes me want to puke.
No, you have to be a man to be a dick, I’m not sure George Will is even human.
...if he only had one. This limp - wristed has-been needs to exit stage right. What a feckless tool.
“the deep state and the elites are in control”.
No, I don’t think they are, not on this one.
If they were in complete control they wouldn’t be pissing their pampers so much about Judge Moore.
Judge Moore is a threat to their control of the political system in their eyes, thus the completely unhinged attacks against him.
If the good people of Alabama elect this non-establishment man of GOOD CHARACTER, what could happen in other states.
The unwashed masses (us) could start electing people based on the Judge Moore model and their control would start to crumble pretty quickly.
