Like a bad case of herpes, Kim Davis is back. Again.
The Rowan County Clerk made national headlines earlier this summer when a video uploaded to the internet showed her denying a marriage license to a gay couple just says after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of nationwide marriage equality.

Davis made headlines again a month later when she argued before a federal judge that she objects to gay marriage on religious grounds, and that the First Amendment guarantees her the right to religious freedom, and so, therefore, she shouldn’t have to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples if she doesn’t want to, and blah, blah, blah.
After the federal judge ordered Davis to obey the constitution, she responded by turning away even more gay couples and appealing the ruling. Then, to prove she’s really serious about all this, she and her lawyers decided to petition the US Supreme Court, asking it to delay the federal judge’s decision until her appeal is finished, a process that could take months.

In her petition, Davis says she is seeking “asylum for her conscience.” Unfortunately, her “conscience” probably isn’t going to get much “asylum” since the judge assigned to the case is none other than Justice Elena Kagan, one of the five justices who voted to legalize gay marriage in the US in the first place. (Whomp, whomp.)
In the mean time, Davis is refusing to marry any gay couples, though she’ll happily continue collecting her $80,000 salary. She has also vowed to never, ever, ever, under any circumstances whatsoever, issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple, even if SCOTUS denies her request. Doing so, she claims, would “forever echo in her conscience.”

Kudos to the editor!!! I just started my day with a huge laugh!!

How long are they going to let this go on? She works in a government office and is breaking the law. She does NOT work in a church.
Rick Holtz
This bitch is a public servant paid by American taxpayer’s to perform her job. She has no right to any personal opinions or beliefs that prevent her from performing her assigned duties. She should be fired immediately, lose her pension and benefits and be thrown in jail for her blatant disregard of the law. I’m surprised she hasn’t been run out of town by now. What is wrong with her supervisors?
Cynthia Deitrich
So what religion does she follow that tells her to refuse issuing marriage licenses to gays only??? Does she background check every couple to be sure they fit her standards?? Ridiculous! Do your job.

How dump can she get? They already brought this case to the highest court in our country and was voted to be unconstitutional to deny LGBT their rights to marriage. Funny how this lady talks about how it violates her religious views yet she got 4 divorces, last time I checked punishment for something like this is stoning! Wait! It’s the 21st century

Kim Davis needs to abide by the duties required of her. She is not in a position to withdraw her services.

Apparently, Ms Davis’s troubles (of her own making) are about to get worse:
The Rowan County Attorney’s Office has referred a charge of Official Misconduct against Rowan County Clerk, Kim Davis to the Kentucky Attorney General’s Office.
Due to Kentucky Bar Association rules, officials with the Rowan Co. Attorney’s Office cannot prosecute Kim Davis. The conflict case will be passed on to a prosecutor in another county.
Rowan Co. Government and the Rowan County Attorney’s Office can take no future action against Kim Davis. According to a release from Cecil Watkins, they cannot remove her from office.
That decision will ultimately be up to the Kentucky State Government, according to the release…
Local media now reports that, while the case will be tried by an outside prosecutor, the trial will be held in Rowan County

How stupid can she be? I still think she should file a lawsuit against the supreme court just to give us a laugh.

Useless woman. Fire her.

Since she is issuing no marriage licenses, the next step would be for a straight couple to sue her for failure to fulfill her duties. There’s an end game here; and like a train wreck, it’ll be not pretty when it crashes on her head. [Of course, like a train wreck, I’ll join everyone else in watching.]
In the meantime, let’s be careful with mocking the notion that personal conscience has any role in public servants’ decisions about their duties. What else was Gavin Newsom following when he issued marriage licenses so many years ago if not his conscience? The larger point should be that personal conscience is balanced by social, cultural and legal forces. And marriage equality is one case in which much of that has been settled.
Alford S. Sean
Isn’t it amazing that this p*g can get married four times, via her chosen man-made religious cult! She disgusts me on every level. Long grey hair, no makeup, & in a plus sized skirt tells me her chosen cult….yup snakes and chickens.

I suppose it would be paranoid of me to believe that all of these thousands of law suits are funded by the Koch brothers, yes? One mosquito is annoying. Thousands are contenders. Does our community really need to provide resources to fight all of these law suits? This case has already been decided. Unless they are thinking that by the time this case worms its way up to the Supreme Court of the United States, that a Republican will be able to line the bench with politically and religiously motivated ScaliaThomasRobertsAlitos for lifetime appointments.

this whole thing is getting old, Marriage is legal and she has to do her job or impeach her, fire her just get over it and move on,, If she can’t do her job then find someone who can! it’s that simple

So over her. It’s the law — do it, quit, or be fired. Not sure why none of these haven’t occurred yet

@Ron Jackson: Thank you for the good news, there is justice in the world after all.
This woman is truly the most stupid of beasts!
Realitycheck
@Brian JC Kneeland: Brian I feel as you do,
but as a legal precedent it would be better if SCOTUS were to release an in depth reasoning on why she will loose her case, in order to prevent any other religious extremist to act the same way, just by using a different angle.

She makes 80k a year and THAT’S what her hair looks like? Shame.

@Dave Vhjam: Sadly she is an elected official and she cannot be fired, but there is a lengthy process to remove her from her

@Chris: But conscience is not the issue here is it? The real issue, she is breaking the law she was sworn to uphold, that has nothing to do with conscience and everything to do with violating an oath of office.

Looks like a win/win for Kim Davis. Even if she should happen to lose her job over this, she can always get her own show on Fox News.
Jesse McGuay
She wants to keep fighting, that’s just fine, but as she’s refusing to do “her job” she should be suspended w/o pay pending final result. If, Goddess forbid, she wins then give her back pay but till then she ain’t workin so quit paying her for disobedience!
Freida Fontenot
For real !! Fire her. Get over yourself. You don’t have to believe in everything you do, just do your job.

In case anyone is interest in regard to Kim Davis
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. The charge must be tried in court before a designation of first or second degree is placed upon it.
Also to make it more clear: official Misconduct Charge have been Filed against her, that is what “The Rowan County Attorney’s Office has referred to the Attorney General’s Office a charge of official misconduct against Davis.”
The reason they cannot due themselves…….??? Check this out LOL
“because they are involved in current litigation with Davis”
The referral of charges comes after Davis refused to issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple Thursday morning.
Last
A finding of official misconduct can provide impetus for several other actions under Kentucky law; there are statutes which provide for her impeachment by the State legislature (County Clerk is an elected position in Kentucky), while other statutes provides avenues by which her pay can be forfeited (on a day-to-day basis) for failure to perform her official duties.
Realitycheck
In other words this is what Kim Davis stand against:
Legal fees for private law suits against her from the people she has unlawfully refused licenses.
Legal fees for her law suits against the government, state and federal.
Legal fees for Kentucky state upcoming misconduct trail.
Losing retroactively her pay check for not doing her job.
Jail time for contempt of court.
Jail time from few weeks to a year if she is found guilty of
misconduct Class A or B and fines of $250.00 and $500.00 per misconduct.

It’s incredible how many marriages she’s willing to stomp on in her attempt to avoid having to take a look at the want ads. She really must have no sense of perspective or empathy at all.

Religious Freedom: What you believe is not a problem. Demanding that everyone else live by what you believe – THAT is a problem. If you can no longer uphold the laws of the United States, as you swore to do in your oath of office, because the highest law of the United States has become incompatible with your religious beliefs, then resign from that public office and enjoy your right to freely practice your religion in your church and your home.

At this point the judge should have given her jail time for not following his last federal court order.
She is an elected official, she gave an oath to follow the law, her fat ass is not at her church. if she cannot fulfill her oath due to her religious beliefs, then she need to resign.

She’d better hope she has rich friends when she loses the last fight after racking up all these legal bills and court costs and the bills start coming in. She’ll not only have to start issuing marriage licenses, she’ll be figuring out a new budget for her and her assistant clerk son, on how they’re going to pay the Million$ in legal bills and court costs for their malicious hateful actions. Better start saving now Sweetie. Maybe you can rent out your son for gay bachelor parties.
Aaron4174
I hope her appeals keep failing and the first couple she refuses to marry after her final appeal are workers in law enforcement and she gets arrested there and then for not complying with the law. It would be such a sweet ending to a hateful set of actions; who knows, her son and her might end up being someones plaything whilst in jail. lol

Maybe this has been brought up before.. and I apologize if is has been discussed. But to my knowledge.. Ms. Davis has been divorced at least 2 times according to court records.. now… just saying what if the judge or clerk in those cases refused to grant the divorce on religious grounds??? I mean…. “until Death do you part”
