Though she has been under intense attack and pressure, she claims a peace and trust in God that surpasses human understanding.
“We serve a living God who is alive and on the throne,” she said. “He knows exactly where I am, and I know that His hand is upon me and upon His people. He is in full control.” View Quote |

I don't know why they just don't fire her. No reason to send her to jail.
This whole thing is disgusting and a mockery of justice. Gavin Newsome didn't receive this treatment when he pretty much did the same thing by handing out sodomite marriage licenses when that was illegal. |

So she is in an elected position, won't uphold the law and tells her staff not to either.......hmmmm, I get sick and tired of elected officials not upholding the law. I could care less about gay marriage, but she is a damn drama queen. For some podunk Kentucky community she's lucky to have that 80 something grand salary for an admn job.

The last sentence, she needs to be familiar with the phrase "Separation of church and state" She is probably more familiar with it than you, as it exists nowhere in the constitution, but only in a letter from jefferson. In fact, maybe you, and the members the gay communist gun club that seem to have overtaken this forum in the last year, need to familiarize yourself with exactly what the first amendment DOES say. |

My only issue with what she is doing is legal. I don't think the Supreme court should hold the power to write state law. They can rule state law unconstitutional, but the state should be forced to legislate, not the court. That said, there is only one fix that the Supreme court would be forced to accept - and that is if the State stopped issuing any marriage licenses. Anybody could marry anyone - but NONE would be recognized by the state as marriage. Pretty sure that would be equal.

this one is far from it So is it true she's been divorced multiple times and committed adultery? or is that just the media attacking her for being antigay? |

OK - let me get this straight. You guys feel like a person who works for the government should uphold the law. That is the law therefore people should follow it, and be held accountable. So, next year when the SCOTUS makes guns illegal - you will follow the law (just like she should) and you will want all government employees to follow the law and confiscate your guns? Apparently you have decided you like "Gay" laws so those should be enforced but if they outlaw guns - well those laws should not be followed. Pick one gents. You can't have it both ways. |

The law in the state passed by the legislature in 2004 that is still on the books states that marriage is between a man and a woman.
Supreme Court isn't in the business of legislating. They can claim that the current law is unconstitutional, but they certainly can't write a new law that says in kentucky marriage can be between a man and another man or a woman and another woman, etc. So, she's not breaking the law, as the current law in KY. Am I wrong? |
