Roy Moore Just Can't Take a Hint

You can say one thing about Roy Stewart Moore. He never takes no for an answer.

In 2001, while he was chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court he unveiled a massive granite monument of the ten commandments in the State Judicial Building. Two years later, after a federal court ordered its removal, Moore refused to comply with the decision. By the time the dust settled both he and the monument had been removed from the premises.

Inspired by the failed rebellion he ran for governor of the state in 2006 and 2010, but lost both times in the republican primaries. In 2012 he ran once again for the chief justice position and won a second stab at the job.

In 2015 the United States Supreme Court declared gay marriage to be legal. It was a ruling Moore described as, "...manifestly absurd and unjust...contrary to reason and divine law and not entitled to precedential value." He then ordered 68 state probate judges not to issue marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples.

Because of his illegal order the Alabama Court of the Judiciary--a nine member panel made up of judges, lawyers and citizens who oversee members of the state court system--removed him from office a second time. CNN reported that in the Court of the Judiciary written decision they used terms about Moore's conduct which included things such as, "grossly inconsistent with his duties, incomplete, misleading, and manipulative."

Moore's immediate response to his removal was, "This was a politically motivated effort by radical homosexual and transgender groups to remove me as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court because of outspoken opposition to their immoral agenda."

So what is a man to do after losing two elections and getting fired from the same job twice? In Roy Moore's case it was run for the United States Senate.

Actually it didn't seem like a bad idea once the chubby Nazi, Steve Bannon got on board and Luther Strange, a Trump endorsed candidate, was beaten like a bad dog in the GOP primary.

Then, as they always seem to do when it comes to His Honor, things went all to hell. Women came out of the woodwork with tales of not just past questionable behavior, but outright pedophilia. To make a long story short Roy Moore went from a sure thing to blowing the election by 1.5%. It was the first time a democrat won a U.S. senate seat in Alabama since 1992.

But never count ol' Roy Boy out. To this moment he has refused to concede the election and last night he asked an Alabama court to delay a state board from certifying democrat, Doug Jones as the winner. The reason? Why the great 21st century bugaboo of all far right wing losers--voter fraud.

That's right. If a white conservative loses an election in Alabama, or anywhere, it must be because either thousands of people of color voted illegally, or that Illuminati son of a bitch George Soros rigged the damn machines.

The motion cited three experts including one Richard Charnin who claimed the probability that the votes in Alabama were accurately counted are, "less than one in 15 billion." Charnin, who says he has three different degrees in math, has previously argued it is mathematically impossible for John F. Kennedy's assassination not to have been a vast conspiracy. He also maintains the 2004 Bush-Kerry presidential election was fixed, as were a couple of Florida and Wisconsin governors races, and that Hillary Clinton stole most, if not all, the democratic presidential primaries she won in 2016.

In addition, Moore issued a statement saying he took a polygraph test after the December 12th election which proved he not only didn't feel up the women who accused him of indecent behavior, but that he didn't even know them.

On the other hand the twice cashiered judge failed to offer any reason why he didn't take the test immediately after the accusations came to light. You know, before the votes were actually cast. Perhaps it was simply a matter of not being able to find the right sort of stooge to administer the thing in a timely manner.

In any case word comes this afternoon that the Alabama court rejected Moore's request and the Alabama State Canvassing Board, chaired by republican Secretary of  State, John Merrill, certified Jones as the winner.

So are we finally done with this crazy fuck? History tells us absolutely not. God only knows what Moore's next move will be. Further court challenges are a distinct possibility. However, even if they all fail--and one can't imagine them not--Roy Moore will find some other office to run for because that is exactly what he does.

Indeed, some people just can't take a hint and unfortunately for us all, this savage clown is one of them.
