Dick Of The Week

Alabama's Chief Justice and Bible-thumping anti-gay bigot, Roy Moore, joins fellow Republicans Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell in concluding that God slaughtered the victims of September 11, 2001:

[Moore] implied a parallel between the attacks and the 40-year legal erosion of religion's public standing, including displays of the Ten Commandments.

He pointed out similarities between the devastation and the biblical words of Isaiah, who had forecast a "day of great slaughter, when the towers fall."

"How many of you remember Americans running to get gas masks because [of] some bearded man in Afghanistan?" Justice Moore asked during his address at Georgetown University. "Fear struck this country. You see, there are consequences when we turn away from our source of our strength."
