I agree. Also she is not allowing any marriage licenses to be processed for anyone. How many couples have planned and paid for weddings, at the cost of thousands of dollars, and now can’t get a license? How does that square with her personal religious liberty? And how are those tearful stories going to be portrayed in the media? She will be widely portrayed as a crackpot who is ruining people’s lives over her personal beliefs. And it will stick with a lot of people, and not just liberals.

The irony of this all. Kim Davis is Democratic politican. The judge, who sent her to jail, was appointed by Bush. The judge is the son of a conservative KY Senator, Jim Bunning.

Kim Davis’s son is a deputy clerk who refuses to process gay marriage license. The judge did not send him to jail because other deputy clerks were willing to process them for him.

Oh, poor babies they are. Oh wait, they can go to the next town and get a ML. Most of the queers can from hundreds of miles around just to get their pound of flesh.

I do not recognize you people. I am reminded of what Thomas Paine said.

THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated.

This also seems appropriate.

They can get a license from another county.

These poor languishing couples—these poor desperate Romeos and Juliets, or... or Romeos and Benvolios, or Juliets and their Butch Nurses....whatever!

They can drive for 15 minutes over to the next damn county and get their licenses.

Case closed!
