Moore to speak at Commandments rally

[Khephra]

WINDER - Ten Commandments-Georgia Inc., an organization based in Barrow County, will hold a pro-Ten Commandments rally in front of the Barrow County Courthouse Thursday with suspended Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore as the keynote speaker.

The rally will come just days after the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear Moore's appeal to keep a Ten Commandments monument in the Alabama Judicial Building in Montgomery, Ala.

On Monday - the same day the high court rejected Moore's appeal - Ten Commandments-Georgia officially presented a check for $50,000 to Barrow County to pay a retainer for a lawyer the county hired to defend itself against a federal lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union. The ACLU is seeking a court order to remove a Ten Command-ments display in the Barrow County Courthouse on the grounds it infringes on people's constitutional right to be free from government-sponsored religion.

Ten Commandments-Georgia was founded in October by Barrow County citizens to raise money for legal efforts like the Barrow County suit, as well as to organize petitions and encourage individual families to prominently display the Ten Commandments in their homes. The organization hopes to distribute 3 million copies of the Ten Commandments to homes in Georgia.

3. If Michael Moore had those kind of balls...

We here at DU would have to fly in a couple of planeloads of our secret, heavily-armed DU security forces, perhaps wearing Klan-sheets in order to fit in, so that we could rescue brother Moore before those Christian true-believers lynch him. And God help us all if our DU-force snatches the wrong Moore. :evilgrin:

2. Moore isn't serving God.

He's serving his own career. Woe be unto him for being so blatant.
