http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/06/12/1306500/-County-clerk-to-Wisconsin-Attorney-General-call-off-the-dogs-and-turn-off-the-fire-hoses"Not sure of the legal theory behind the notion that Wisconsin Attorney General's thoughts are more binding than the U.S. Constitution, but he seems to be arguing that since the judge did not issue an "injunction" ordering clerks to follow the ruling that nobody has to. All of that, however, is just buildup to a delightful smackdown by one of the more prominent county clerks being threatened by Van Hollen."

There are a lot of people out there who exercise their freedom of speech is these special ways, what they say matters as much as the screeching of Hate Media and Stupid Media.

He has multiple times now threatened repercussions against county clerks.
Latest report today is that 63 of the 72 Wisconsin counties are issuing same sex marriage licenses. Van Hollen wants them all arrested and charged by local DAs?
Van Hollen thinks his "thought" trumps a ruling in federal court.
And where is Van Hollen's attention-seeking and usually loud-mouthed boss, the Walktater? Crickets.

(2,205 posts)Van Hollen however is up to his usual homophobic rhetoric.
He is going to the 7th Circuit hoping Diane Sykes will grant a stay and overturn the District Court's ruling.
Outside of the Pedophile catlick church and a few Christian Tea Hadists no one really cares to stop these couples from marrying.
The catlick church gave millions of $$$ (like the Kochs) to foist this state constitutional ban.
It is now biting these pedophile catlicks in their homophobic asses.
It was after all carl rove and the bushes who thought the constitutional marriage ban was a good idea to get out the right wing voters.
