The Ayatollah of Alabama Removed From Bench

"Roy Moore, the stridently conservative Alabama chief justice who ordered probate judges across the state not to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, was effectively ousted from his position Friday after an ethics panel found him guilty of violating the canons of judicial ethics.
The 69-year-old Baptist, who was also removed from his position in 2003, was suspended without pay for the remainder of his term. He cannot be reelected because of age restrictions." LA Times

See ya, judge.

+1. We must be grateful to those that made this happen, in Alabama yet.

Moore and Putin are on the same page when it comes to gay marriage.

Russia would be no kind of comeuppance for him. He'd probably end up being visiting professor of Western jurisprudence at Moscow State.
