Noted style icon Kimberly Davis had all but disappeared from the public eye following her imprisonment for refusing to follow Kentucky law and grant same-sex couples marriage licenses and getting face time with Pope Francis, but like a bad case of scabies, she’s back to deliver a painful itch.
Kim attended Obama’s final State of the Union Address as the guest of Republican Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, the chairman of the conservative Freedom Caucus. Classy move, Jim.

And she ditched her signature baggy T-shirt for a confusing sweater — always cutting edge, that KD is.
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.
Many viewers were distracted by Kim’s new threads, and it didn’t take long for the internet to deliver:

Unable to see how being in some one elses boots makes all of the diference in how you perceive things,she is in violation with the Lord
No one gave her the right to act the fool that she is and I noticed that she is not on any sort of religious order of any kind, not even wearing a somple brown scapular or a holy face of Jesus medal .
I would be willing to bet she is not a doctor either, so how then can she make accusations against my loving gay brothers ?
Oh , she cant thats right .

@Jamie Hincks: I know it’s petty but it sort of shows a pattern of not understanding social cues (or laws!) and expecting other people to be understanding and apologetic no matter how stupidly you behave. Clothes are a form of communication after all. If there was nothing else troubling about her except eccentricity in dress she’d be signing marriage licenses.

With all this public attention, you would think that she could drive to the big city and pick up ONE nice outfit with a jacket. Even for her, I was surprised that she dressed for a day at Wal-Mart.

LOL
Brian
Good on Kim Davis for being an individual. She’s not following trends or fashions as espoused by the silly women’s magazines.
Gay-identifying men could learn from her. They are very conformist and conservative in their appearance. One look inside a gay bar confirms it.
Chuck
Dear Kim Davis
You would think making $80,000.00 per year. You could of at least went to a nice department store to buy something nice. No you just had to stop at the thrift store to buy your sweater. We understand the original price was $6.00, but the employees marked it down to $1.99 just to get rid of it.
Everyone that walked into the store was LMFAO , over your sweater. Now we all know why you have such a frown on your face. Poor thing….LMFAO still!!!!!
Brian
@Chuck: But why should she go to a department store? Why should she prop up the profits of the corporates?
Kim Davis is showing individuality by dressing in clothes that are her choice and which do not go along with everybody else. I think that sort of individuality is lacking in America today. It’s pleasing to see someone being an individual for a change.
Bauhaus
@Brian:
No, she’s not showing individuality. She wears the approved garb and has the approved appearance of her asinine church and its idiotic followers. She, like you, could learn a thing or two from gay men, not the other way around. The first thing she should learn is decorum.
Brian
@Bauhaus: Oh, please – have you ever been inside a gay bar? The men all look the same. Same hair, same jeans, same singlets…it’s a sea of conformity.
Gay-identifying men are EXTREMELY conservative and conformist when it comes to “the look”. Pathetic, really.
Franklyn
Oh come on…..
Yes, she has a very negative outlook. Yes, she is not “enlightened” as we we would like to see her. Yes, she is not in the best possible job position – BUT – is sitting here discussing her “sweater” and her “looks” the most uplifting example of making a point? Take a higher road. Stop being a bunch of caddy queens. When one criticizes others, it says something about you. Let’s being a kinder and more loving group of people. Let us lead by example and show our light when others cannot.
Remember, there are other people that do support her. That being said, we alienate people by harsh words and prove what they have been saying all along about us.
Take the higher road!!!
Bauhaus
@Brian:
Complete lack of decorum, decency, class and common sense, that small-minded drip.

definitely needs a stylist. sweater doesn’t match the top and her t-shirt/undergarment shows. i mean, how many tops is she really wearing. but, all in all, when ugly wears ugly what can you expect.

@Nancy Rotkowitz:
” I would think a woman so full of the Holy Spirit on a mission from God would be happier. ”
I would think the same thing also. But she is ‘not’ on a Godly mission. Here’s the simple ‘why’ —
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/02/us/kentucky-clerk-a-local-fixture-suddenly-becomes-a-national-symbol.html?_r=5
I…must be obedient to…the Word of God, Davis once wrote.
Then why isn’t she obedient to Romans 13:1-5?
If she truly loved the Bible, she’d certainly recognize the importance of Romans 13:1-5. but apparently she wasn’t interested because of her ‘conscience’.
In [brackets] is why she went to jail.
1. Everyone must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God, and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God.
2. So anyone who rebels against authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and [they will be punished].
4. The authorities are God’s servants, sent for your good. But if you are doing wrong, of course you should be afraid, for [they have the power to punish you]. They are God’s servants, sent for the very purpose of [punishing those who do what is wrong].
5. So you must submit to them, not only to avoid [punishment], but also to keep a clear conscience.

Here’s why so many conservative Christians do not show loving kindness, in word and deed, towards LGBTs —
You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty again? It is good for nothing anymore, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men…….Matthew 5:13

How shameful that this waddling embarrassment was taking a seat that so many more deserving Americans could have enjoyed instead. And the sad irony is that the ignorant cow probably only understood one-eighth of the President’s address. That’s not a look of hatred or spite you see in that photograph. It’s simple, abject, bovine stupidity.
Please. Kim. Boobie. Do the rest of the country a favor. You’ve got a great gig back home: $80,000 a year to do absolutely nothing. Slink back to Kentucky, sit down in your taxpayer-funded office on your ample cheeseburger-fueled posterior, and for the love of Flying Spaghetti Monster, slip back into the permanently incompetent obscurity you so richly deserve.
OhHellNo
Send her to the Vanilla ISIS dumbpound in Oregon. They’ll beg to be taken to Guantanamo.

Bigoted bytch with her Bump-It and rag-bag sweater probably sat there hearing voices, and not human ones, as the President spoke.

Of all the people to invite its this woman the GOP chooses. What a bunch of silly, out dated bigots.
whitakerk861
@Daniel Salmeron: No, it’s neither. It’s commonly understood that the SOTU is not a super casual affair. I agree with the article. Her choice in clothing is a reflection of her self-centered, myopic vision of the world. She’s a selfish nitwit.
whitakerk861
@Brian: Seriously? You just compared a formal event, the SOTU, to a gay bar. What do you wear to a gay bar when you go out? Now I’m curious. What a mundane, ignorant comment by you.
BornSerious
@Brian: Brian, I do have to agree with you about the conformity of gay men. I heard recently that cargo shorts are a no-no! Well, excuse me for liking shorts that hold more that a wallet and cell phone! I do think that going to a Congressional event warrants dressing up a bit. A nice blouse with cashmere knit sweater and slacks would have been more apropos, n’est pas? Seeing the sweater she had on reminded me of the time I went to see the Nutcracker and a middle-ages guy standing up in the front of the balcony was wearing an untucked T-shirt! Ugh!

She IS one of the best adverts ever for showing the crap that religion is and why it’s best for everyone to move over to the fastest growing religion in the U.S. (and the west in general) — ATHEISM!! It is everything that religion is not – which makes it a happy place to be! Keep up the good work Kim!

I have a couple of female friends who have virtually never worn make-up or done anything fancy with their hair. Kim Davis reminds me somewhat of them. I used to think they were “old-fashioned” but then I realized that it’s women like them who are the true rebels. They’re not conforming to the appearance demands that are made on women by American society.
Forget hair salons, forget Maybelline, forget Chanel, forget aerobics and dieting…women like Kim Davis are the true rebels of American society in terms of their appearance.

@Brian:
Every one of your posts has either defended Kim Davis or attacked ‘all gays’.
If you are so anti-gay that you find Kim to be brave and heroic why are you on this site?

On the bright side, the busy pattern on the sweater took attention away from the fact that she wasn’t wearing pants or underwear.
But you had to look really closely to tell, if you just glanced it looked like she was wearing a pair of faux fur shorts.
