Originally posted by Cerek the Barbaric: The report on the national news last night said that removing Judge Moore was just the first goal of the lawyers that brought the case against him. Now that they have achieved that, their next goal is to try to have him disbarred! I disagree with that and don't really think it will succeed, because the fact is that Moore has gained a LOT of popularity in Alabama due to this case.

I think that we can consider Mr Moore (not 'Judge' anymore!) suitably chastised by virture of his removal from office. I don't think any further action should be taken against him at this stage beyond forcing him to pay for the removal costs of the monument and any associated repairs to state property.

However, should Mr Moore display yet more open contempt of the Courts, then disbarment may be the only way to go. At this point, he should consider himself to be on probation and conduct himself accordingly.
