MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP)--Protesters hoping to keep a Ten Commandments monument in the state judicial building marched on Attorney General Bill Pryor's office Tuesday, demanding he resign for abiding by a federal court order for the marker's removal.

About 150 monument supporters marched from the judicial building to the nearby Statehouse to meet with Pryor, but were met by 10 state police blocking the door. Seven representatives were allowed inside to meet with Pryor's chief deputy for about 20 minutes.

The rest of the group remained outside, chanting, ``Resign now! Resign now!''

1. We all know

It's politics pure and simple. That's what repukes do best....use religion for political gain. It's a sham.....and a disgrace.

2. kind da got the feeling

this is just a showboat by the gop tp take the heat off of jr. right now , well he steals some more of our rights , jr. knows that these people will rant and rave over the 10 laws rote in stone , so mean while they will do some more scrubbing of jr. and clean him up a bit and get him ready for the next election

3. Ok, But What Does This Mean For Pryor's Support...

When Monkey Pox renominates him to the Federal Judiciary for the umpteenth time? Will he still have massive conservative support, or is he now toast with his own supporters???

:shrug:

4. obviously he thinks it should help

See, guys, even when I disagree, I follow the law. Now let me be a judge!!!!!!

Edited because I just noticed WillyT specifically asks about his conservative supporters. I think this is exactly the strategy Hatch, et al would be urging him to adopt. It doesn't matter whether Moore's loonies on the courthouse steps like Pryor or not. It matters whether they can pry loose some more senators. And I believe they'll try to use this to drive home the point above, i.e., that he follows the law regardless of his own beliefs.

6. Aaaahhh... Good Point kainah !!! --- Makes Perfect Sense In Fact !

Just wondering if the loonies on the right hold any sway with creeps like Hatch. Or are they just a necessary annoyance to him?

11. Has he followed/obeyed the law every time?

5. Pryor's only doing it because of his nomination.

Power before principles, should be their motto.

7. Hey fundies, are you aware that he's a PAPIST?

Lawdy, that oughta raise some dander...

(I hear those fiends open the egg from the small end; they must be stopped!)

8. Kick !!!

9. maybe something good will come out of this

Pryor and Moore out on their butts.

10. 150 anti-gov't protestors swarm Statehouse!

Don't these people have jobs to go to?

12. They are probably the same ones that listen to that radio hot air
