Given that she's a government official, her disrespect for the Court's decisions and orders will be especially frowned-upon, but I also know that some contempt jailings are relieved when the jailed agrees to abide the court's orders.

Interesting...

Quote:In the meantime, one of the six deputy clerks must issue marriage licenses to all couples. They were given a half hour to decide whether to comply with the order or join their boss in jail.
The Rowan County attorney said in an interview that the deputy clerks would have issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples but were too afraid of her to disagree.

“Davis is acting alone in her zealous mission,” wrote Shannon Ragland, of the Kentucky Trial Court Review. “Her conduct has terrorized not just her staff but everyone that works in the courthouse. And all for a foolish mission aided by out-of-state charlatan lawyers trying to raise money for their ‘religious liberty’ mission.”

I fully expect it to be the latter.

Question is - how long before she tires of the greybar suites and gives in or resigns? (The latter, I think, is more likely)

I can just see the argument now:

Jesus: "Hey, I already died for their sins, I'm not defending her!"

The Spook, ""Only you two and crazy fuckers can see me!"

Jesus, "Well, I guess that leaves God.  Hey, where is he?"

The Spook, "I haven't seen him."

Jesus, "Typical dead-beat dad..."

The Spook, "Yeah, never shows up when he's needed.  Probably appearing on a sandwich somewhere..."

The fucking comments section is gold.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
