The former Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court received a standing ovation from his supporters as he left the courtroom after being removed from office earlier today.
The 9-member court determined that Moore had willfully and publicly defied a federal court order and "placed himself above the law." The judges quoted Supreme Court statements that, in America, no official is above the law.
The judges noted that during his trial, Moore expressed no regret for the situation and told the judges that, given the opportunity, he would, "do it again."
You can take that to the bank. It's hard to fathom the workings of a mind (if you can call it that) that would "support" a judge holding himself above the law, let alone one who brags about his intentions to continue doing so.
And I'm sure we haven't heard the last of Mr. Roy Moore.
