MONTGOMERY--It was no secret that former Chief Justice Roy Moore was raking in big bucks on what is called the "Knife & Fork Circuit"....as a public speaker...but nobody realized until last week how lucrative it has been.
As required by the Ethics Law, Moore filed a financial disclosure form with the Ethics Commission indicating his income in 2004 from speaking engagements and the sale of his book ("So Help Me God") had generated more than $250,000 in income.
For the record, that is almost three times as much as he would make if he were to be elected governor. The salary of that office is $96,361 annually.
