But I have made no plans to run for any office right now.

I was asked three times directly in the hearing before the board of the judiciary whether or not I would continue to acknowledge God if I were to resume my position as chief justice. And I said I would.

We've voted in a government that's rotting at the core, Appointing Godless Judges who throw reason out the door, Too soft to place a killer in a well deserved tomb, But brave enough to kill a baby before he leaves the womb.

It can have a secular purpose and have a relationship to God because God was presumed to be both over the state and the church, and separation of church and state was never meant to separate God from government.

The Ten Commandments are the divinely revealed law.

And government's only role is to secure our rights for us.

I must acknowledge God. It says so in the Constitution of Alabama. It says so in the First Amendment of the Constitution.
