Do you like the Constitution? No, do you LOVE the Constitution? If you love and respect our Constitution, you would not think Moore a "crackpot." He was willing to defend the Constitution in his court, and that is what he will do in the Senate. We need more people like him.

Moore's detractors have no respect for the Constitution. It is their misguided application of the First Amendments so-called "establishment clause" that was at the root of their former activism against him.

The intent of the First Amendment was to keep the Federal Government out of the churches, and actually has it's roots in "The 1100 Charter of Liberties," and to prohibit the Federal Government from "establishing" an officially recognized "church" (as the Church of England had been, resulting in the persecution of other sects of Christianity).

Our Constitution, and our Laws, are based on English Common Law, which is rooted in the Bible and Christianity. The roots of our Liberty are in English history, and historical documents in that history which are the genealogy of our Constitution.

Judge Roy Moore exemplifies true patriotism, and respect for our Constitution and the correct application of it's principles. Those who disagree with him do so out of ignorance.

Really? Ignorant? Speaking for yourself?

They chose the right man, the man who stands for the Constitution, and Liberty. That is what every citizen should do.
A politician who upholds the Constitution 90% of the time violates the Constitution 10% of the time.

So, someone who stands for Constitutional principles and respects his oath of office is "dangerous?"

Interesting. I suppose despots are not dangerous then, by your logic.

By the way, "Bull Conner" was a Democrat who opposed the Civil Rights Movement (like all Democrats did). Roy Moore is a Republican who stands for the Constitution. To equate Moore with an anti-civil rights activist is ridiculous. That's like those of you who call Trump a "Nazi" and "white supremacist."

Why Alabama, why?

They continue to vote themselves into poverty and ignorance.

Ugh.

No. Anyone that cast a vote for Roy Moore has to be either ignorant or crazy is all I'm sayin.

This election makes me think of that.
Really? How strange. (no pun intended).

I wonder if we "unleashed" the full restoration of Liberty and Constitutional principles what you would think of?

You appear to have missed my point. I'm not surprised.

Results here...

Alabama U.S. Senate GOP Primary Runoff Election Results
Lots of pat analyses by journalist who, a week ago, had zero understanding of the dynamics of this election.

Let's recap:

1) Jeff Sessions was made attorney general earlier in the year, leaving his Senate seat open.

2) Luther Strange, the Alabama AG at the time, was investigating Governor Robert Bentley at the time for corruption.

3) Robert Bentley appoints Luther Strange to the vacant Senate seat, presumably to put the kibosh to the investigation.

4) Luther Strange, formerly a fairly respected politician in Alabama, is suddenly deemed repulsive and corrupt even by this state's standards.

5) The slimebag Roy Moore sees an opening and slithers his way into the election by talking about Jesus. The usual mouthbreathers and knuckle-draggers line up to vote for him. The sane people who normally would have voted against Moore in the polls just couldn't drag themselves to the polling station on election day.

The intriguing possibility is that Doug Jones, a respected state Democrat, might actually have a sliver of a chance against Moore in the general election.

Sixty years of identity politics is now yielding its unintended results. There is nowhere for traditional conservatives to go. Their party is being taken over by a mixture of know-nothings, bigots, populists, nationalists. McConnell and millions of mainstream Republicans are being marginalized. It would not surprise me if we see the ideological split of Republicans translate to an actual split into the Republican Party and the Trump Party.

Moore has often held himself to be above the law, a decidedly unconstitutional and unAmerican attitude, especially for someone put in a position to uphold the law and administer justice.

He's a stubborn backwards old pissant who echoes the Jim Crow days of his youth and seems to want a return so badly that he'll readily defy current law.

Those who agree with him do so out of their own latent bigotry.

Our friends on the left are busy namecalling again: "latent bigotry," "homophobe," "crackpot." Did I miss any slurs tossed out from the children on the left?
