Rally backs Ten Commandments display
McDonough gathering hears of 20-county push

Nearly 100 people gathered at the McDonough square Saturday for music, speeches and word of a new effort to post the Ten Commandments in public buildings in 20 Georgia counties.

Ray McBerry of McDonough, state chairman of the League of the South, said his group staged the event to show support for the Henry and Barrow County commissions in placing public displays of the Commandments in their county courthouses. Henry County has announced plans to do so, and Barrow County is being sued by the American Civil Liberties Union for having done so.

McBerry did not specify which 20 counties would be targeted for the campaign, to begin immediately.

He said Georgia legislators and Gov. Sonny Perdue should "interpose themselves" between the federal courts and Georgia county officials who want to post the Commandments in public buildings.

Other speakers at the rally included Barrow County Commission Chairman Doug Garrison; McDonough Mayor Richard Craig; the Rev. Jody Hice of Bethlehem, the head of Ten Commandments Georgia; Mike Crane of Fannin County, Southern Party candidate for the 51st state Senate district; John Campbell of the John Birch Society; Ricardo Davis of the Constitution Party of Georgia; and Judy Rogers of Providence Reformed Presbyterian Church near Covington. Rogers traveled with former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore, who was removed from office for his placement of the Commandments in his courthouse.

A letter from state Rep. Lynn Westmoreland of Sharpsburg, a candidate for Congress, expressed support for the rally and called for the resources of the Georgia attorney general's office to be used to "stop the ACLU from trying to force counties to remove [the Commandments] by bankrupting them."
