Kim Davis’ 15 minutes of infamy seem to be winding down rather quickly. Last week, she was the talk of the nation, rubbing elbows with the likes of Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz. This week, she’s last week’s news with last decade’s hairstyle.
While Davis spent her first day back at work yesterday pouting behind the blinds in her office with an armed security guard standing watch, the Washington Post and ABC went around asking people how they felt about the Notorious K.I.M. and her antigay antics.

Pollsters spoke to approximately 1,000 registered American voters. They found that three out of four respondents (74 percent) believed treating everyone equally under the law is more important than the personal religious beliefs of some random woman from Kentucky. That figure included 80 percent of Democrats, 75 percent of Independents and 66 percent of Republicans.
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.
More specifically, 63 percent of respondents said they believed Davis should “be required to issue marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples.” Looking at just Republicans, 45 percent of believed this to be true, compared to 49 percent who said her religious beliefs are more important.
Looking specifically at religion, the only group that did not believe Davis should be required to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples was White evangelical Protestants. Go figure.
The takeaway from all this? Kim Davis is wrong. Both legally and in the eyes of the vast majority of Americans, including many conservatives.
In other news: Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz have both just deleted Miss Davis from their contact lists.

Jeff Sweet
LOL YES, SHE IS ! ;-D))))))))
David Harlem
She’s a TOOL for Huckabee’s campaign.
Garth
She must be mid-brained to believe she could become a christian icon. Not enough wood to hold that ego off of the ground.
Damon Robbins
Water cooler conversations at my job indicate that is correct!
Molly HalfPint Malone
Fizzing outttt…..
Stephen Meeks
And an idiot
Curty
Impeached this bitch already, jail her again. Now she is basically bragging they may be void because of her name not being on the paper. She is an vindictive bitch and someone, Gov, judge needs to stop this once and for all.
Bad Ass Biker
Actually, I first read the title as Kim Davis is a total FOOL. The question I have for her white evangelical bible thumping supporters is why are they not stoning her to death for adultery?
dvlaries
It was already clear the day she was released that Cruz and Huckabee would be fleeting, fair-weather friends when neither ponied up pocket change to put Kim’s aging Jethro of a husband in some kind of suit. Geez.
BlueDude
Finally!!! Can we let go of this now? In future, the only thing I want to hear about this tired douche is that she’s been removed from the position of County Clerk.
Doug Copeland
Fire. Her Ass !!!!!
Walt Andersen
Personally I think calling this ‘person’ a total tool is giving tools a bad name.
Eddy Rolland-Domenichello
Just wait folks, someone is going to dig up “The Book of Kim Davis” soon, and there will be another crazy ass right wing religion… SMH…
Carolee Pineau
Ya think?
Noel Hoklin
As it turns out Kim isn’t the poster bitch for the BIBLICAN conservatives after all! Though Mike fuckabee is still trying to make this a persecution of Christians issue rather than a human rights and legal issue, as it truly is.
Ralph Vendegna
And the 49% that believe Davis is right as nuts as she is. Those Protestants That show their Bigotry will rot being negative.
Faye Denton
Tool ??? Idiot, maybe, is more correct. I think, actually, tool and idiot is being far too nice. She should not have this high paying job, that she refuses to do. Should be illegal to get a salary for NOT doing a job.
Emery Biggar
Everyone except her boss because she should have been fired for discrimination. What a twat!
Douglas Pfeifer
Go away
Doug Anderson
So she’s still not going to sign because of her beliefs ? And she still has a job ? Ditch the bitch !!
Michael Brown
I disagree. Tools are very useful and get jobs done. Davis? Not so much.
Johanna White
FB needs to stop putting up posts about this woman… she has had WAY more attention than she ever deserved 😛 ::P 😛
GayEGO
Shhhhh! She is hiding behind the blinds so she can use that tool, otherwise known as a vibrator, to stimulate herself as she gets ready for her next marriage which could be to the same gender! :>)
Doughosier
I think it’s alarming that 26% of people support her! It would be hard to find more of a ” no brainer” case than this.
Michael Breazeale
I would at least find a use for a tool.
Jen Demerchant
Can’t even believe they let her back to work.
Garth
Tool yes ! As flat headed as a screw driver !
Romeil M Serquiña
In England we call her a total
C***
Mary Cannard
In Australia we all her a total tosser
Rehman Edward Saif

Well, you break the law, you go to jail, it’s easy, isn’t it?
If she does not like the laws of the country she lives in, she’s free to leave and join some place more in tune with her values… let’s see… the Islamic State for example.
James Sigmon
fire the witch
Giancarlo85
She couldn’t even get majority support from republicans. Tells her to shut up and stop complaining. As long as you collect public money, you are bound by the law which governs the public sector. Your religious beliefs have nothing to do with it and if you find such a conflict find a different job!
Billy Budd
She must be fired from her job.
Texas Guy
Okay y’all, I’m sick and tired of seeing and hearing about Kim Davis. Yeah, she’s a total tool but can we just move on to something else, even for just one day, please… pretty fucking please?
Josh447
Here comes the garbage truck. Time to put the trash out.
Paul Scheel
Alan David
So do I
Ryan James Breakwell
Can we stop giving this woman attention! Im sick of my newsfeed being clogged with crap about her…i really just dont give a crap…unless shes died…then tell me
Bill Mooney
Shut up Kimmy.
Douglas Schlitz
And not a useful tool!
Xzamilio
@Billy Budd: Well, she can’t be because it is an elected position. Only if she is impeached or she resigns, or Kentucky changes their policy on elected officials — fat chance — will she be gone.
youarekiddingme
Where have all the supporters from this site gone? The one’s who thought she would get all the support from the public? The one’s who said she was being treated so badly by the “gays and that would fuel the fire for her continued support?” *Poof* Gone in an instant!
Marilyn Egan
Yes
Jessie Diaz
please let Mrs. Kim Duggers be. she’s sleeping.
Giancarlo85
@youarekiddingme: They don’t have any justification for what they say. These are the same people who are gay republicans afterall. They all vanish without a trace.
Karen Piercy
She just is glowing with Christian hate.
Alistair Wiseman
@Giancarlo85:
Once again, you just make things up out of thin air.
Show me where a “gay Republican” ever defended her actions? It doesn’t exist, but what does exist is your on-going issue with the hateful
REPUBLICAN DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.
David Mitchell
Governor Beshear please call a special session of the Legislature and remove her from office please. The money spent will be well worth it.
Ron Folsom
She is bigot!
Jimmy Lee
Tools are for working, this thing is like a dirty old mattress. It’s been rode hard and pissed on.
Alex Banx
I don’t think about her all. I think thr majority of Americans spend too much time dwelling on one bigot the mainstream media wants us to dwell on like ignoring the million others out there just like her.
Jessica Naomi
If Kim Davis had such deeply held religious beliefs, then why did she put her name on the Democratic Party ballot? Read what I wrote about Kim DINOcRAT Davis http://www.jessicanaomi.net/kim-dinocrat-davis/
Joseph Carney
I think everyone should never mention her name again. We are keeping it alive with every single post.
Joyce Maxine Jackson Davis
I am with kim,!!!
Giancarlo85
@Alistair Wiseman: Oh here it is. The troll with liberal derangement syndrome. The one who spouts off endless amounts of crap without any real support. When he is not licking conservative balls, he is on here talking up a storm about how bad liberals are. His mind is basically destroyed. This guy only repeats what he has been told.
NJjoe
Her “fame” is coming to an end. I still feel impeachment proceedings should start for her if she does not do her job as she was elected to do. And yes, she is a Tool.
Charles Willy Homan
The only tool she represents is the one you buy from the Dollar Store, its not worth fifty cents.
Alistair Wiseman
@Giancarlo85:
Why all the personal attacks?
Just back up your accusation.
Bob Weber
And yet she is still being discussed. And she is giving TOOLS a bad name!!
Lotta Yadayada
She IS a tool…a dildo.
Jay Bowyer
Did youi say tool or fool?
Giancarlo85
@Alistair Wiseman: You’re the one who posted personal attacks. You simply cannot respond to any of the facts I’ve made. You are just a sick dumbass. She is accepting help from Huckabee and other right wing republicans. Learn how to read!
Alistair Wiseman
@Giancarlo85:
“Learn on to read!” Yes, indeed. Please do. Your recent post had nothing to do with what I asked.
Once again, focus like a laser beam, please back up your accusation that a “gay Republican” ever defended Kim Davis here on Queerty.
Giancarlo85
@Alistair Wiseman: And you can’t address any of the strong valid points I have brought up. I’ve already backed up that claim. Several have said she would turn into some kind of hero. You’re not too bright… I think your mental abilities are failing you.
Alistair Wiseman
@Giancarlo85:
“Several have said she would turn into some kind of hero.”
Those were not gay Republicans and you know it. Those comments were said several times, but in a disparaging way!
So you got nothing. And you didn’t back up your claim.
As I suspected.
Stefano
@Alistair Wiseman: @Giancarlo85: The two of you should go get a room !
Giancarlo85
@Alistair Wiseman: Wrong again. There were plenty of gay Republicans championing her. I have plenty and I have backed up my claim time and time again. You just can’t read because you suffer from sort of issue. Perhaps dementia?
When have you ever backed up anything on here? You come swinging like a blindfolded idiot and you never provide proof for anything.
NJjoe
@Giancarlo85:
I don’t know any gay Republicans who were championing her and why would they?
Alistair Wiseman
@Giancarlo85:
If there “where plenty of gay Republicans championing her” then it won’t be difficult to give me an example. Back up your accusation and give me an example.
