I pulled into the parking lot of Heritage Community Church about 7:30 last Friday night. I had to hurry; I was already 30 minutes late for Roy Moore’s speech. If Moore’s name rings a bell but you can’t quite place who he is, a reminder is appropriate. Eight years ago, he was the chief justice of Alabama’s Supreme Court.

On Alabama’s Supreme Court building stood a 2.6-ton granite monument with the Ten Commandments engraved on it. A federal judge ordered Moore to have the monument removed.
