Who isn't liberal to him?
Former Alabama Attorney General Bill Pryor, a conservative member of the Federalist Society who last year received a recess appointment to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, is just too liberal for Roy Moore's taste.
The former Alabama chief justice is upset because Pryor wouldn't let him offer a brief in a case about evolution warning stickers in Georgia textbooks. Moore says it must be because Pryor is "part of the problem of judicial tyranny and the erosion of our religious freedom." Pryor, who actually knows how the judicial branch is structured, says the denial came because Moore asked the 11th Circuit to overrule Supreme Court decisions, which it can't do.
A tangential question: Does anyone know when and why the media started referring to Pryor as William instead of Bill?
