(Roy) Moore Criticizes Play That Opens Friday
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore has criticized a play opening this Friday in Birmingham.

The play, entitled “Judge Roy Moore Is Coming To Dinner," is set in Birmingham and deals with the issue of two men who get married and then return to the state.

Actor Brian Webber plays the part of Moore who visits the dinner to impart his views on gay marriage and family values. The fictional representation of Moore uses actual words the former chief justice used in a ruling he made in 2002.

“This sort of ‘theater’ promoting homosexual marriage is a result of federal activism in our court system,” said Moore in a statement released Tuesday. “Homosexual marriage represents a degradation of our morality and a denigration of our society. In Alabama, it is against the law, and if I have anything to do with it, it will remain against the law.”

4. Maybe so...
But I don't see Left wingers blaming films like "The Passion" on "activist judges" either.
