Well, well, well. It looks as though Kentucky clerk Kim Davis, who has been busy invoking “God’s authority” to illegally deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples, may have a few sinful skeletons in her closet. Four, to be exact.
U.S. News has obtained court records which indicate that Davis has been divorced not one, not two, but three separate times. The first time was in 1994, the second in 2006, and the third in 2008. She’s currently on husband #4, but she insists he’s “the one.”

But wait! There’s more. Lots more.
Davis gave birth to twins five months after divorcing her first husband. They were fathered by her third husband, but adopted by her second.
Are you following?
Let’s break that down real quick: Basically, Kim cheated on her first Husband #1 with her Future Husband #3, got pregnant by #3, divorced #1, then married Husband #2, who adopted #3’s twins.
As of this morning, Davis has yet to respond to this latest revelation from her sordid past, but her supporters say they couldn’t care less.
Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel says Davis’ marriage and childbearing history is “not really relevant” to her illegally denying marriage licenses to same-sex couples on religious grounds. He claims her multiple marriages are “something that happened in her past” and that when she converted to Christianity four years ago “her slate was wiped clean.”
“She was 180 degrees changed,” he said.
Davis’ colleague, Casey Davis, who is not related to Kim Davis, says there’s a huge difference between getting a divorce four times and being in a same-sex relationship.
“I don’t have any problem with that whatever, how she was before,” he told U.S. News. “If the Lord can forgive her, surely I can. That’s something that’s forgivable just like any other sin, but if you continue in it and live in it, there’s a grave danger in that.”
Blatantly defying the United States Constitution, on the other hand, is totally not dangerous at all.

Isn’t it amazing that Big Kim (@KimDavis #KimDavis) can get married four times, via her chosen man-made religious cult! Her “god” must be So proud! Holiness? NOT! Is this who southern Pentecostals want as their PR mascot??? â? ï¸Better lock up your snakes & chickens! Obviously she loves food ……Let’s through pies in her face like Anita Bryant ….who’s with me?
She also has twins by her third husband born five months after her divorce from her first husband and claimed by her second husband. And she’s afraid of the Lord’s retribution for granting gays a marriage license?
Government Employees Have No â??Religious Freedomâ?? Right To Refuse Service To Same-Sex Couples, Says Americans United
Jul 8, 2015 â?? Clerks Must Issue Marriage Licenses To All Qualified Couples, Church-State Watchdog Says
Government employees who oppose marriage equality because of their religious beliefs are not entitled to refuse service to same-sex couples, Americans United for Separation of Church and State has informed officials in all 50 states today.
In a letter released today, which will be sent to all state attorneys general as well as county clerks in Texas and South Dakota, Americans United explains that with marriage equality now the law of the land, government employees do not have the right to opt out of serving gay couples, because doing so would harm those couples and violate their constitutional rights.
â??As Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the U.S. Supreme Courtâ??s decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, there is dignity in marriage for all couples,â? said the Rev. Barry W. Lynn, executive director of Americans United. â??But government officials who refuse to serve same-sex couples are taking away that dignity.â?
The letter was prompted by a recent memo from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and a statement by South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley, who suggested that government employees may be allowed a religious exemption from serving same-sex couples.
In its memo, Americans United says the Constitution makes no such allowance.
â??As with an interracial couple, imposing such burdens on a same-sex couple would burden, demean, and stigmatize the couple in a manner that violates the Constitution and other laws. Thus, allowing accommodations in these circumstances would subject government entities and officials to legal liability,â? asserts the AU document.
Said Americans United Senior Litigation Counsel Gregory M. Lipper: â??The Supreme Court meant what it said. Any same-sex couple denied service by a government official should contact Americans Unitedâ??s legal department. We stand ready to represent same-sex couples whose rights are violated on account of religion.â?
This action is part of Americans Unitedâ??s new project, Protect Thy Neighbor, which seeks to stop religious-based discrimination against LGBT persons and others.
The letter was written by Lipper with assistance from AU Associate Legal Director Alex J. Luchenitser, and Madison Fellows Zachary A. Dietert and Natacha Y. Lam. (Lam is admitted in New York only, and is supervised by Lipper.)
Americans United is a religious liberty watchdog group based in Washington, D.C. Founded in 1947, the organization educates Americans about the importance of church-state separation in safeguarding religious freedom.

And beware of the Right Wing defense of people like Kim Davis. They can’t defend her hypocrisy, so what they will do is cry that you are dragging her through the mud, or saying “Stick to the facts of the case” and not bring up her obvious lies and hypocrisy.
The fact is, they can’t defend her as being an ACTUAL Christian living by the Bible, so they are desperate to pretend that her bigotry and attacks on gays are fine, but that pointing out her adultery, lies, and breaking multiple Biblical rules is somehow “Rude”.
It is the same phony tactics that NOM tried to use during the Prop 8 debacle.
Oh, and lastly, If you divorced a spouse and married another you are committing adultery every day unless you go back to the first spouse.
So by her own religion that she claims to follow, she is violating the Ten Commandments EVERY SINGLE DAY.

We all have a past and there’s no need for most of the infantile, mean, childish and ignorant comments thrown at this woman.

The biggest issue is that she needs to respect and defend the rights of others as much as her own. This is in no way, shape or form defending any kind of freedom since it impinges on the freedom of others but too many people, especially of the extreme right, fail to understand that.

Please stop with the excuses and trying to avoid the facts.
She claims that she lives a Biblical life now, and that from that basis is denying civil rights to an entire segment of the population.
These are lies, if she was living according to the Bible she would have to go back to her first husband, since according to Christ’s words, being married to another is committing adultery. In other words, she is breaking the Commandment against Adultery every single day of her life, yet claiming that she is following the dictates of her religion.
So nice try there you bigot supporter.

And this is exactly why I utterly despise Christianity. It’s not a religion; it’s a Get Out Of Jail Free card for despicable people. They do whatever they damn well please and then refuse to take any responsibility for it because Jesus comes down with a big-ass eraser and wipes out their sins (which are rather frequently also crimes.)

No, actually it isn’t pointless because legally intent and truthfulness are completely relevant. In other words if somebody gets up on the stand and says “Those drugs are not mine because I have never taken drugs and I am anti-drug” and then video surfaces of them selling and smoking crack, their lies are relevant.
Kim Davis’s only argument is that she lives her life by the Bible and according to it’s rules. The facts of her life show that this is a lie, and that her attacks against the civil rights of LGBT’s are plain old bigotry.
That is completely relevant, and that is why the right wing are desperately panicking and trying to do whatever they can to get people to stop talking about it.
No different than when some male elected official is pushing for anti-gay laws and then they get busted with a male prostitute. Their lying and hypocrisy are directly relevant as is Davis’s. THAT is why you see so many right wingers screaming to leave the facts of her life alone.

Notice how often the Right Wing jumps on the bandwagon of people only to have them turn out to be severely flawed?
Miss Ca. Carrie Prejean was heald up by the right wing as the anti-gay image of purity only to have egg on their face when it turns out she sent out videos of herself masturbating to multiple boyfriend.
George Reckers, the anti-ga researcher whose research was central to the Prop 8 case, only to have him caught with a male prostitute.
The Duggar Family – Nuff said
And now Kim Davis, the “Decent, God fearing woman who lives her life and her marriage according to the Bible who it turns out is a multiple adulterous, who lied to her husband, had kids by another man, and is on her 4th marriage.
The right wing is so desperate for a poster child that they keep rallying around people that end up embarrassing them.
Realitycheck
@garethgrey: Forget the small talk and concentrate on the real problem.
Even conservative Antonin Scalia has explained (yesterday)
why Kim Davis should do her job or quit.
The law is the laws, Kim Davis has a right to her religious believes BUT she
does NOT have a right to her job and she is breaking the law.
She should issue licenses or quit.
End of discussion, by the way Scalia said this yesterday to send a strong message to the federal judge in Kentucky that is handling the contempt of court as we speak, it has began at 11AM.
I hope she gets a million dollar fine and 90 days in jail and she is forcefully removed from her job.
Realitycheck
Guy a poll from WKYT with8240 respondent has 50.41% of respondent in favor Kim Davis quitting her job and 17.39% in favor of issuing licenses.
Only 32.20% are in favor of her to continue fighting.
This is pretty much in lime with americans general thinking 60% in favor of marriage equality and 10% couldn’t care less with 30% against.

A federal judge has ordered a defiant Kentucky clerk to jail after she refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples.
U.S. District Judge David Bunning told Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis she would be jailed until she complied with his order to issue the licenses. Davis said “thank you” before she was led out of the courtroom by a U.S. marshal. She was not in handcuffs.
Davis has refused to issue marriages licenses for two months since the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage. She argues that her Christian faith should exempt her from signing the licenses.
