The Federal judge and the sane people in the office worked out a reasonable compromise, if Ms Davis and the state don’t want to go along a lot of taxpayer money is going to be wasted. The Supremes made a decision and it is the law of the land. Kentucky and its county clerks are going to have to adjust to it.
I remember that the Bible was also used by governors George Wallace and Orval Faubus to justify their opposition to segregation, and all it got them was visits from the US Army.
]]>Her Liberty Counsel attorney keeps filing responses that allude to state issues that a Federal judge isn’t interested in, and this is yet another one of them. Kentucky law requires that reasonable accommodation be given to a politician’s religious beliefs. Federal law does not. So at this point she has a beef with Kentucky law, which a Federal judge is going to be entirely uninterested in. She needs to be suing the State of Kentucky to say this is a reasonable accommodation (or not) in a Kentucky court, not a Federal court. But then, that wasn’t the point of any of this, the point was to make her a martyr and insure that she gets wingnut welfare and votes. SIGH.
]]>She is not getting, nor can she expect, much public sympathy for her have-it-both-ways position. Toooo damned bad, I say! But I suppose it’s the price one pays for the approval of (gag) Mike Huckabee…
I’m sure I’d rather F***abee
Than cede my lot to H***abee!
