Clerk Defies Supreme Court, Refuses Gay Marriage Licenses

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.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
