Moore Stupidity

Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore has finally addressed the issue of the federal court order to remove the statue of the Ten Commandments he put up in the state's judicial building. As expected, he demonstrated a keen understanding of the rule of law and the separation of church and state:

"The question is not whether I will remove the monument," Moore added. "It is not a question of whether I will disobey or obey a court order. The real question is whether or not I will deny the God that created us."

The real question, I think, is how a person like Moore ever became chief justice in the first place.
