The 11th Circuit heard oral arguments today on Judge Roy Moore's 10 Commandment plaque. According to early news media reports, they were very critical of Moore's arguments. Judge Carnes (a fellow Alabama Republican and George I appointee) said he was amazed at Moore's argument.

We will see how he votes, though.

Not that I know of, FTR. I am only repeating comments that I heard on this afternoon's NPR.

I'm sure we'll see a lot more in tomorrow's Birmingham News.
