You Won't Believe Roy Moore's Answer As To Why He's Not Like George Wallace

Alabama Supreme Court Chief Injustice Roy Moore has given an interview to the Associated Press, explaining his illegal fight against marriage equality in Alabama (some states never learn) and why he's not the modern-day reincarnation of George Wallace.
His answer to the latter question has to be seen to be believed.
From AL.com (emphasis added):
Moore's actions have drawn inevitable comparisons to former Gov. George Wallace's 1963 largely symbolic "stand in the schoolhouse door" aimed at preventing desegregation at the University of Alabama, nine years after education segregation was ruled illegal.
Moore said there is another difference.
"George Wallace moved," he said, noting how the former governor eventually stepped aside.
"I can't move from my position because I'm bound to uphold the Constitution," Moore said.
i guess in their heads they have taken "THEIR" country back the rhetoric is reminiscent of the ideology of the southern right racist back in their day, and with more impunity than ever since.  if you wrap yourself in it make sure you wipe the elephant dung off of it so you can see the actual words.  and thinking he can't move that's about as logical as the original statement 0.0000000000.0 factual.
