Roy Moore, the Republican candidate and leading contender for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court, delivered a speech this week on some of his favorite topics: God, greed, guns, lust, hypocrisy and the Constitution.
The U.S. Constitution “is a restriction of the fallen nature of man,” Moore, 65, said. “And when you have a fallen nature, you succumb to greed and lust, which you can see in our government.” Following the speech at the Birmingham Kiwanis Club, which received 10 seconds of scattered applause, audience members declined to speak about Moore’s candidacy.
