ROY MOORE TO RUN FOR SENATE

Whelp, former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore just cannot stay away. Roy Moore announced, yesterday, June 20, 2019, that he's throwing his hat in the senate race. As a Republican resident of the great state of Alabama, I would just like to say, if Roy Moore truly loved this state, he would stay as far away from public office as possible.

Let's review: 2001 then Chief Justice Moore secretly had a gigantic monument of the Ten Commandments built on the state capitol. I have no problem with the Ten Commandments, but this cost taxpayers an enormous sum of money on a monument that would inevitably be removed, which it was. The fiasco ended with the removal of Chief Justice Moore.

2006 and 2010 brought failed campaigns for governor.

In 2013 Roy Moore was reinstated as Chief Justice for a second time. Following the legalization of same-sex marriage, and Judge Moore's refusal to comply, he was again removed as Chief Justice.

2017 brought a run for Senate, that ultimately cost Alabama a Republican Senate seat to Democrat Doug Jones. We have a real opportunity to recover this seat with front-runner Representative Bradley Byrne.

To be fair to Roy Moore, the main stream media viciously exaggerated the sexual misconduct against Moore. During that time period it was common for older men/younger women relationships. Regardless, I don't believe he is a child molester. Still, I really wish he would just stay away.

I'm counting on Alabama to give Roy Moore the message, hopefully, once and for all, that Alabama is ready to move on. Please, No Moore!!

CREEPY JOE CONTINUES

Joe Biden keeps digging in. The more he tries to distance himself from old racist Democrats, the more reality comes to light. He says he "hated" those guys, yet new letters have come to light wherein he offered them thanks and seemed to show genuine fondness. His fellow Democrat contenders smell blood in the water. I can't wait for the debates!
