He didn't operate in a legal vaccuum. Whether it's right or not, don't try to tell me that the Chief Justice of the state supreme court didn't know that a federal court would get involved when he put that monument there.

He did it, and he did it in such a way, to provoke an outcome where he can claim martyrdom status along with the Ten Commandments. It was a very clever political strategy, but I think it was incredibly cynical and an absolute betrayal of those who were striving to get a balance between government and religion.

He set that cause back, yet somehow comes out the hero. Go figure.
