more cool stuff

in a letter sent to his supporters, Huckabee is asking a series of questions about Kim Davis and her situation. One thing he notes is that Kim is a Democrat, something that few are mentioning, especially those in the mainstream media.

'I spoke with Kim Davis this morning to offer my prayers and support. For those of you who don?t know, Kim is the Rowan County Clerk, a Democrat, who is under fire from the left for refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses in Kentucky.

I let Kim know how proud I am of her for not abandoning her religious convictions and standing strong for religious liberty. She is showing more courage and humility than just about any federal officeholder in Washington.

Kim is asking the perfect question: ?Under what law am I authorized to issue homosexual couples a marriage license?? That simple question is giving many in Congress a civics lesson that they never got in grade school.

The Supreme Court cannot and did NOT make a law. They only made a ruling on a law. Congress makes the laws. Because Congress has made no law allowing for same-sex marriage, Kim does not have the Constitutional authority to issue a marriage license to homosexual couples.

Kim is a person of great conviction. When people of conviction fight for what?s right they often pay a price, but if they don?t and we surrender, we will pay a far greater price for bowing to the false God of judicial supremacy. Government is not God. No man ? and certainly no unelected lawyer ? has the right to redefine the laws of nature or of nature?s God. Five unelected lawyers have abused their power by ruling in favor of a national right to same-sex marriage with no legal precedent and with nothing in our Constitution to back it up. They have violated American?s most fundamental right guaranteed by our Constitution ? religious liberty.

I stand with Kim Davis and every American of faith under attack by Washington elites who have nothing but disdain for us, our faith and the Constitution.'


Folks, you're missing the point about the Kentucky clerk's jail sentence - Allen B. West - AllenBWest.com

so it's okay to prosecute a Christian but not a homosexual for the same situation? just trying to get the facts clear in my mind here

Unless American judges are different to the judges of other countries then her job is to uphold the law as it stands drawn up by politicians, she certainly isn't doing her job by taking this stand and should be sacked just for that. It doesn't matter what her views are, she is a judge and isn't willing to do her job properly.

[beerptrol]

There are quite a few stories out there about judges refusing to marry same sex couples, yet you only post about this one to further your fucktard agenda.
And Kim Davis was prosecuted for not obeying the law and a court order, not for being a Christian. If that judge is ordered to perform marriages and doesn't, she too will suffer the consequences of her action

[Rochard]

Anyone who refuses to marry a couple should be arrested on the spot and put on trial for violating the constitutional rights of another person.

Simple...

[Barry-xlovecam]

I am forced to obey lots of laws I don't like or agree with. What the fuck makes her so fucking special?

If she has a problem with her sworn duty to uphold the law -- she is an officer of the court and obligated to enforce the laws as the US Supreme Court rules the law to be. She just should have resigned -- that is her ONLY right in the matter. Do your job or leave /period

Kim Davis is just holding out for a big payday, NO ONE ACTS LIKE THIS AFTER "CONVERTING" IN 2011..

It's the same thing as a vegetarian refusing to serve McDonalds.. What would usually happen there? Fired..

Bachman is a special kind of crazy... a special level that not many could hope to achieve. Congratulations to Allen West.

Mike Huckabee needs to go back to playing guitar with his pal Ted Nugent and fade away into nothingness.

[crockett]

So wait..republicans are complaining that democrats are willing to attack another democrat who fails to follow the law? So I guess democrats should play better team sports and support her because she's a democrat, not becouse she is right or wrong?


Yey team sports.. Republicans are dumb..

This is all just such bullshit. They are claiming "The Supreme Court cannot make law". Correct. Instead, the Supreme Court decides how the laws are applied when a dispute comes up. The highest court in the land has decided that gay marriage is legal, and that is that. Anyone who fails to obey this.... goes to prison. Which seems to be the case here.

How is this woman still in office? She is an elected government official, who is sworn to obey the law.... Her religious have nothing to do with this. If her religious beliefs conflict with her doing her job, she needs to quit her job.

Fuck it. She can sit in jail for a while.

Nope, should just get fired for not doing job properly.
And, of course, applauded for regarding their principles higher than job/money.

There is a difference between refusing to do your job (and thus getting fired) and an elected official refusing to obey a court order - which is why she is in jail right now.

Elected government officials cannot enforce their morals and values on others - and even more so when the Supreme Court has passed a ruling on the issue. The Supreme Court has ruled on the issue, this is not open to discussion, and this is why she is currently in jail. I hope she stays there.

[Rochard]

I remember when California had the vote on gay marriage. My house is by one of the main streets leading into my development here, and all night long there was two groups of people putting up their signs about gay marriage and taking down the signs from the other side. This went on all night long until eventually fist fights broke out and the police were called.

It's dumb stupid how some people feel about this. This is the civil rights movement all over again; Twenty or thirty years from now people will look back and this and be ashamed of themselves.

[dyna mo]

Very much not dumb stupid

This was a 5-4 sc split decision. And according to one sc judge,

Justice Scalia in his dissent:

?Today?s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court. The opinion in these cases is the furthest extension in fact ? and the furthest extension one can even imagine ? of the Court?s claimed power to create ?liberties? that the Constitution and its Amendments neglect to mention.

?This practice of constitutional revision by an unelected committee of nine, always accompanied (as it is today) by extravagant praise of liberty, robs the People of the most important liberty they asserted in the Declaration of Independence and won in the Revolution of 1776: the freedom to govern themselves,? Scalia wrote.

And the lesbian judge?
Should she be in jail too or is this just more of the double standard?

there is no statute... a judge stated that gay marriage should be legal in all 50 states and England but that is NOT a law... to be arrested, a law or statue or rule must be broken or violated... a judicial decision is not a law... judicial decision are the basis of laws, but not laws....

like holden refusing to open his investigations, like Hillary refusing to open her email server, shit like that????

you seem very happy that the supreme court is enforcing their moral values on you??? what's the big turnaround here???

then you might remember that gay marriage was voted DOWN by popular vote and a judge threw out the vote... right???

If a lesbian judge refuses to marry straight people, she should go to prison also. Straight couples, gay couples, no difference.

Just because the majority of people vote on something doesn't make it right or legal.

This is why we have the Supreme Court and other lesser courts - to make decisions on our laws. In this case, the Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage is in fact legal. You cannot push your religious beliefs on other members of society.

[dyna mo]

And it's beyond ridiculous they jailed that woman
