So the judge won't say if the marriage licenses will be legal without the clerk's signature. This is a fucking set up. That's all it
Elected or not,  she could still step down if she can't do her job. When Nixon had to resign, they let Ford finish out his term. Why doesn't the judge make her resign and put one of the deputies in her place?

Gays in Kentucky should not se this ruling as a good sign.

Granted in today's changing world maybe nothing is certain, however, we have case law/precedent (Cooper v. Cooper and others) that even if the proceedings are hinky, if you think you're married, you're married.

It's never been applied to a gay situation, but the (unpleasant) repercussions for hetero divorce if Cooper v. Cooper was disrupted somehow would be extremely concerning. 

For heteros.


I'd find the situation hysterically funny.

What principles ??

She finds out she isn't going to get laid by hubby # whatever while incarcerated and she is going to change her mind.

The Kurds, minority Muslims, Christians murdered by Isis are persecuted, she is merely a childish bigot.

How would she like an atheist ER doctor refuse to give her care. If she ended up under their care?

In Saudi Arabia, women are prevented from driving. Would she like to live there? She does understand that even in America government officials were arrested for refusing to allow women to vote after Susan B won women that right?

Or did she ignor that other clerks were arrested for refusing to issue interracial marriage licenses?

She is no hero, just a childish brat bigot.

The fact is that our governing authorities ignore the law when it is convenient or fits their adgenda. I mourn the lose of a once great nation.

What?

You clearly have zero concept of what a far left crazy is.

How about if God has a problem with gay marriage, he can do something about it himself without the assistance of pissweasels like her.

"pissweasel", I am sooooo stealing that!

It sounds as if Chad is engaging in a little Tu Quoque.


Please name me a few of these far left crazies that are in power now.

Neither Jesus nor anyone in the New Testament said anything specifically about preventing same sex marriage but the bible does say to follow the law of the land. Kim Davis isn't following her own holy book.

Quote:1 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.

6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

Sonny, you wouldn't know a far left crazy if it hit you in the face. It only goes to show how far to the right you are if you consider the American mainstream far left.
