I suspect an intern educated him…a little. Of course so would any ant.

Why so convoluted Judge ? Seems like your mind is elsewhere maybe still here:

"“This is nothing more than a prime example of how media and crooked
police officers and critics of my dad try to not only destroy his career
for what he stands for but will go as far as trying to destroy his
family,” Caleb Moore wrote on Facebook, along with a photo of a document
that appears to show the results of a drug test. “I am not a drug user
as the drug test taken today will show. As for the malicious possession
charges, justice will be served.”

Moore can’t stand losing, but he has lost. He can’t do anything and he knows it, but it won’t stop him from whining about it.

He does look - and act = like he is constipated.

One negative drug test does not - repeat NOT - prove you are not a drug user. Most users can stop long enough and detox enough to pass a drug test once in a while, especially if the drug test is on a set date. You pass 2 or 3 RANDOM tests in a row, you can consider yourself “clean”.

Why so worried about what other folks do, Roy? If you find the idea of gay marriage, or gayness in general icky, just don’t think about it. You are no longer relevant and history doesn’t care what you think or what you say.

Wearing that orange outfit and living in the Steel Bars Hotel makes passing a drug test easy. Giving the cops probable cause to administer the drug test is a tad harder to explain away. Check with that Zimmerman guy for advice on help from daddy.

“Dammit, I wasn’t ‘instructing.’ I was merely trying to provide the county clerks with an entirely pretextual reason for dragging their feet, if they so chose, but I guess I got carried away and botched it!”

Because that’s exactly what happened here.

The main question is: Was there John of Orange-intensity weeping and helpless gnashing of teeth?

“Moore later told AL.com that while the order does not prohibit probate judges from issuing gay marriage licenses, they will not be forced to issue the licenses in the next 25 days.”

And will Justice Moore pay the legal fees of any probate judge who refuses and gets taken to court?

15

Watch Moore squawk if anyone actually tries in court to force him to do something like that.

A Teabagger overreaching is as predictable as the sun coming up in the morning.

Before using the term “backtracks” for Moore, you need to understand something about his anatomy. His feet and his face point backward, so he goes through life bass-ackward and is really only moving forward when he appears to be backtracking.

17

Judge Moore openly says that he is following the Law of God, which ought to be enough to get him impeached anywhere but the Bible Belt.

Caleb, the next Dubya?

This guy’s a winner of Charlie Sheen proportions. Ironically, right after being arrested for drunk driving and drug possession in 2011, Caleb was named executive director of Moore’s Foundation for Moral Law. This guy. But he was apparently really good at it, since he only worked two hours per week.
It apparently didn’t help much since he was busted again less than a year later:

Court records show that, in 2013, Moore pleaded guilty to drug-related charges in St. Clair County and was sentenced to probation. In 2011, he was arrested and charged with drug possession and driving under the influence in Etowah County. He applied to be treated as a youthful offender.

Clearly he’s a victim.

You really have to wonder - how much judicial misconduct is too much? What will it take?
