In case you missed it over the Labor Day holiday, our pandering Attorney General Scott Pruitt took a colossal dump on the judicial process in a sad, pathetic attempt to win brownie points with the Derplahoman crowd who's probably going to elect him governor in 2018.
Last Thursday, he filed a desperate brief asking a district court to consider whether the Oklahoma Supreme Court’s decision regarding the Ten Commandments monument "creates hostility toward religion," and as a result, "violates the U.S. Constitution."
No shit, I'm not making that up. Here's his statement:
“In defending the Ten Commandments display, my office argued the monument was lawfully permitted on Capitol grounds because of the historical significance of the text on the development of Western legal code. In its decision to remove the monument, the Oklahoma Supreme Court held that no matter how historically significant or beneficial to the state, state law prohibits any item on state property or to be funded by the state if it is at all ‘religious in nature.’
