Where else can one continue to collect a paycheck while refusing to do their job?

You advised everyone to drop their contempt-prison fantasies, and instead be consoled by the high likelihood that she would almost certainly lose the suit brought against her, and that there was a good chance she would need to pay out of her own pocket. You may have been referring to the Texas case, but either way, I was consoled. I've been having pleasant daydreams about her liquidating her Beanie Baby collection for $400 after finding out they're not worth the $75K she thought they were worth--all to pay damages she brought on herself.

No doubt there is some legal remedy under the local law, but it is not going to be dismissal, that's for sure.

on contempt of court charges, though.

I didn't me that we could, I just kind of used the generic "you". They need to start smacking these fools down, and they will have to make a few examples out of people.

if fail to abide by oath should be incarcerated until such time resign or fulfill obligations of office.

federal contempt of court?

punish them severely.

What they dont understand is there are now enough of us, whether it is Women's rights to their own bodies, Black people having a right to function and not be shot, or a Gay person being treated equally, that we now demand this and the alternative is chaos if we dont get it.

you can do the right thing or ultimately you will sow chaos

She's a pencil pusher who should be doing her job. She isn't marrying anyone. I'm sure there are plenty of people willing to fill her spot if she can't do her job.

makes nearly 80k a year. Not bad for a high school grad.

is the fact that these folks are still in their jobs. If they do not do what they are told, fire their asses. Do it on the grounds of refusing to perform their duties, on the grounds of insubordination, but do it on the grounds of a normal work flow process. Do not give them grounds to challenge, sue, etc.

Gays, blacks, Muslims - the motivation for their actions is irrelevant.

You do not do your job, your ass is out the door. End of story.

And that whole side story about dying for what you believe in...That is one of the best 'milk through the nose' lines I have heard in a while.

I realize Kentucky is a red state, but does no one there have any balls whatsoever? They sure act ballsy about so many other things.

mitch and paul

that stuff on Rand's head qualifies as hair?

can't fire her because she was elected. She must be impeached.

After that, she will be breaking the law/in contempt of court.

Take your 'holy' book and go home and read the fucking thing.
Then maybe you will understand what a contradictory rag it truly is.

only option is fines/jail time for contempt of court.

my question is: what are they waiting for?! Fine her! Toss her bigoted, fake Christian ass in jail!

I guess some jail time will be in her future.

BooHoo....

They shouldn't have to, but it would expedite Kim Davis' arrest.

No, lady, it is not about you. Her and Zimmy, 2 of a kind.

The people are her boss.

The Kentucky house has 54 Democrats and 46 Republicans.
Republicans control the Kentucky State Senate.

Assuming impeachment works as it does at the Federal level, the House could impeach but she would not be convicted.

That assumes that Democrats would actually impeach her, an act that would amount to throwing a political torch into gasoline.

I assume that those she refuses to grant marriage licenses to could take her to court, or she could be arrested and tried for violation of civil rights.

Here are the details about that office and others:

137 pages is just too much to peruse.

Maybe there are sovereignty strengths to states set up as commonwealths, I don't know.

I still think this isn't over.

and send the US Marshals to go arrest her ass?

I am really getting tired of people thinking that they have the right to use the 'god trump card' whenever they want

I wonder how she tells her children and other people how to be law abiding citizens
Contempt is Contempt and now the judge has the means to have her jailed------------------

stop molly coddling these fuck heads.

for the FADA bill (first amendment defense act)
I am quite sure she is getting attractive financial backing from Cruz and the boys to do so. The next step is getting her fired so thet can get the judicial ball rolling.

Next up? County Trustees refusing to take property taxes of gay people?

Either process the license or sit ur stupid ass in jail, Kimmy.

She & her kind will OBEY or we will make you obey.

Here is the link to the Herald Leader which was published today. My LTTE is next to last I believe. Check out the other letters too. Mine would be under my real name: shouldn't be hard to find just look for my initials. negoldie.
