Hostettler's funding tactic seen as illegal power grab

By Mike Leonard
Herald-Times Columnist
Judge Roy Moore's monument to obstinacy was removed from its prominent place in the Alabama Judicial Building Wednesday, despite Indiana Congressman John Hostettler's best efforts to assist the Alabama Chief Justice in his cause.

Earlier this month, the 8th District Congressman attempted to undercut federal marshals from potentially enforcing a federal court order to remove the massive, 5,280-pound Ten Commandments monument by removing funding for the marshals from a congressional spending bill.

The GOP must have its way, every time no matter what. Greedy Republicans nothing more!
