Kim Davis sat down with Fox News commentator Megyn Kelly last night to talk about the shit storm that is her life. It was her second nationally televised interview, following a tear-and-snot-filled debacle on Good Morning America.
“For me,” Davis told Kelly, “it’s never been a gay or lesbian issue.”
Instead, she argued, it’s been about “upholding the word of God and how God defined marriage from the very beginning of time.”
But when Kelly flat out asked Davis why she doesn’t just resign, the Notorious K.I.M. let it slip that she’s kinda sorta enjoying all the attention she’s been getting.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“If I resign,” she confessed, “I lose my voice.”

Realizing her gaffe, Davis quickly followed that up by answering Kelly’s question with another question.
“Why should I quit a job that I love that I’m good at?” she said. “They can accommodate for all sorts of issues, and we ask for one simple accommodation and we cannot receive it. I mean, it just doesn’t seem right!”
The “one simple accommodation”, of course, is permission to defy the U.S. constitution.
Ever the victim, Davis went on to say that she “begged” and “beseeched” lawmakers prior to June’s Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality to pass legislation that would protect God-fearing clerks such as herself from having to comply with the law, but none of them did anything to help. She also said she regularly receives “hate emails” and “vile stuff” in her mailbox, but she refuses to let it get her down because, as she puts it, she is “someone who God is using” to get his message out to the masses.

When Kelly asked if she thought she would actually be arrested for breaking the law, Davis replied: “In America? In 2015? No. I mean, you know, have we come to a place that, uh, that we can’t accommodate everybody? That we can’t agree to disagree? And still have respect for each other? You know?”

She wants to be accomodated, said she will continue her so called fight until legislation comes up in the next session. Why should she be accommodated when this legal document is a legal document, it does not require a church to be married in the United States. I suppose it does require a loss off brain functioning for some county clerks to not understand this and on top of this she thinks she can make her own federal forms as she sees fit.

She also loses that $80,000 a year pay check and government benefits. I am sure her income is much higher than the average in her small, rural town.
And yes, she would eat up the attention for her standing up against what is right. And it will be hilarious when her “mansion” in heaven is a shack behind some gay Christian’s grand villa. See, after you are saved, the things you do in the name of God build up rewards in heaven. Right now she is not earning any.

@SeeingAll: This is true, like the Kardashians and starlets who get stuck on stupid, if the media ignores them they go away.

I really, really hate her. We all…gay, straight, human, need to stop giving her attention. Why do we care about ANYTHING she has to say? All of that is irrelevant when she feels the need to deny people their rights. Lets focus on important, POSITIVE issues. Bye Kim!
David Pickersgill
Listen… it was on Fox News…. was anyone watching and if so….. WHY?
twinkie1cat
I don’t know how Kim can put herself in the category of “God fearing” when she is going against what Jesus said. Come to think of it, maybe that is the problem, she is afraid of God rather than basking in God’s love, what God is about, and sharing that love with others.
I sent Kim a detailed letter with backing scriptures while she was in jail. I wanted to help her understand that her perception of God and her characterization of a vengeful God is wrong under the Covenant of Grace and by what Jesus taught. I hope she got it, but she has not responded. I was speaking Christian to Christian.
One of Kim’s problems is probably that her denomination is rule bound. It does not seem to have a lot of joy, much like the United Pentecostals and Jehovah’s Witnesses. The lack of make-up and clothing that reminds me of a nun’s habit are clues. I once worked with an Apostolic. She was a competent office worker, very good at what she did. However, she dressed like Kim, plus a head wrap. And she fasted on Thursdays, which made her very crabby. This was a Black lady and we worked together for close to a year.

Kim Davis told the truth about one thing… she has one gay friend. Unfortunately for her, that gay friend won’t even speak to her anymore.
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/09/24/kim-davis-s-one-gay-friend-is-angry.html
“I really don’t know who Kim is at the moment. I really want to believe that the kind, sweet person who was there when my mom passed away is still there,” he said. “I was friends with Kim in the past, but I don’t know this woman I’ve been seeing.”
Giancarlo85
@SeeingAll: I think hypocrisy needs to be exposed everywhere and if a public official refuses to do their job and it is ignored, that’ll spread like cancer.
People who want this ignored and not covered are simply ignoring a cancer in society. And that cancer will spread eventually infecting more elements of government. You’ll have more public officials who refuse to do their job without fear of repercussion because their morals tell them not to do it. Sorry dude, but your line of thought is dangerous and self destructive.

As far as this wretched woman she needs to fuck off already all she does is act like a self righteous pious asshole acting like shes the shit and we ARE SHIT as human beings.

If they cant show us respect then they themselves don’t deserve respect in return plain and simple.

Realitycheck
So what happen to the other 4 law suits pending? The one Davis filed against the governor of Kentucky for forcing her to do her job (immagine that, rolling my eyes), the 2 law suits against Davis for damages caused by her refusal to issue licenses as it is her job to do, and the 2 charges of misconduct filed against her for not doing her job under investigation by the attorney general of Kentucky.
Cooooooome on! Davis needs a little more time in jail, just to chill her out, misconduct charges can carry either 90 days or 12 months in jail depending on the degree of the crime crime.
KRS 522.020 and KRS 522.030 deal with official misconduct in the first and second degree, respectively. “A public servant is guilty of official misconduct in the first degree when, with intent to obtain or confer a benefit or to injure another person or to deprive another person of a benefit, knowingly commits an act relating to his office which constitutes an unauthorized exercise of his official functions or refrains from performing a duty imposed upon him by law or clearly inherent in the nature of his office or violates any statute or lawfully adopted rule or regulation relating to his office,” according to KRS 522.020.
Official misconduct in the first degree is a Class A misdemeanor and is punishable with imprisonment not to exceed 12 months and fines of $500.
Official misconduct in the second degree is a Class B misdemeanor and carries a potential punishment of up to 90 days imprisonment and fines of $250.
Cam
Oh yeah, Kim Davis, and her supporter Mike Huckabee REALLY follow the Bible right?
Timothy 11-13
11: A woman should learn in quietness and full submission.
12: I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.
13: For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
Corinthians 14: 34, 35
34:The women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says.
35:If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church

@Royston Hunget: uh what? I am intolerant of government officials not doing their job and collecting a paycheck funding by the taxpayers. She refused to do her job. She can believe in whatever she wants, but I’d she refuses to do her job and interferes with her coworkers now carrying out that job, she should be thrown back in jail because of misconduct.

Kim Davis Admits She Loves The Attention, Accuses Americans Of Being Intolerant.
When she got out of jail she stated that she did not want nor did she like the attention and that she wanted to simply go back to the life she had before all of this happened. Now according to the comment above she likes the attention and calls Americans intolerant. We are not intolerant we are sick and tired of lying hypocrites saying one thing and obviously doing different with their actions. She is a liar, a hypocrite and absolutely loves the attention especially now the national attention. She deserves nothing more than she gets and I sincerely hope that the people who elected her as county clerk in Kentucky will now see the two-faced individual that she is and her whole crusade has nothing to do with God or her religious beliefs. It was and will always be for the attention period.
OhHellNo
A real journalist would have been much harder on her, but Kelly thinks euthanasia is a charity for Japanese homeless kids. (Actually, a real journalist wouldn’t be interviewing an inbred idiot like Davis.)

FnameLname
Of course she likes the attention! She is the wall flower from high school who had 3 really close friends and no acquaintances. She did homework for the cute guy in her science class because that was the only time he talked to her. She had a gay friend and fancied herself a “fag hag” only to discover years later how that was the devils doing and she now understands that her role was to help change her gay friend back to normal instead of dressing up in drag with him every Friday night to see “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”. She now understands that God forgives those who sin if they are wiling to accept Jesus as their lord and savior. She holds the sanctity of marriage near and dear to her heart after 4 marriages to three different men. The icing on the cake and the slap on the ass from the bible belt is the fact that she did not allow any co-workers to issue marriage licenses when they were perfectly wiling to do so. She knew that if that happened the media circus would stop and so would the potential for any book deals or the chance to meet husband number 6 because let’s face it..she’s on a roll and as long as God’s gonna forgive and look they other way, why not? Admitting that her outlet will be taken away reveals her true intent. She is eating this up with a big ole’spoon and cries at the thought that she will fade away into obscurity. When asked why she had no problem issuing divorces in her county since that is also considered a sin in the eyes of the lord her response was simply “that is between them and the lord”..hmmmm how convenient that she can apply this perspective when it affects straight persons like herself but if it only affects gay people than she must point out the sin and act as a vessel to spread God’s word and intention.

You described her unjust prejudice very well.
If she truly loved the Bible, she would’ve been obedient to Romans 13:1-5 and none of this would have occurred.
I keep thinking that she knew her job and income would not be in jeopardy if she went ahead and did what she did.
