"One thing I will take care of right away is we will remove the names of the county clerks from the marriage form," Bevin told reporters in the Capitol rotunda.

Great plan, except for one thing. If I remember correctly, Kentucky Law REQUIRES the name of the county clerk on the document.

It will have to be changed by the Kentucky state legislature, and then the governor will get to sign it after that, but I don't think he can legally just do it himself.

Of course nowadays, all sorts of end runs around the law have become common place. "Gay marriage" for example, is a willful defiance of correct law by the courts and a willful defiance of the expressed will of the people.

Well folks, if we are to STRICTLY follow Kentucky law, then we ought to know that Kentucky Law DOES NOT RECOGNIZE and SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITS same-sex marriage.

So, who’s violating Kentucky Law? Certainly not Kim Davis.
