On Principles & Values: 2003: "Tragedy" to remove Ten Commandments from MS Capitol

In August 2003, Musgrove sent an invitation via state letterhead to display judge Roy Moore's unconstitutional--as ruled by the U.S. Supreme Court--Ten Commandments monument in the Mississippi Capitol for a week in September. In the letter, Musgrove praised the judge, calling the Ten Commandments "the basis for our legal tradition" and announced that he would call on other governors to display the monument in their state capitols as well.

Musgrove further wrote, "It would be my honor to host this monument as a symbol of every Mississippian's dedication to the fundamental principles of the Ten Commandments." Even further, Musgrove invoked "our Christian heritage," condemned "groups like the ACLU," and said there is "no freedom from religion." He called the removal of the Ten Commandments from the Alabama Supreme Court building a "tragedy".
