Ship her to the gulag. Violation of Constitutional rights, etc.

If "god" is your number one priority (and I mean truly your priority, not just a political line), you don't belong in government. Period. If you can't deal with gay folks getting married, don't run for an office where you may have to issue them a license. This woman has already been given several chances to stop being such a lunatic, at this point she is guilty of engaging in sectarian behavior that is exacerbating division at a national level.

To be fair, she didn't. She ran when the Kentucky Constitution made same sex marriage illegal, an amendment to their constitution passed with like a 75% 'for' vote. It isn't like she ran and then was elected with intent to disobey a Federal Judge who decided the people of Kentucky don't get to make those laws.

Oh I know. I was just being...incendiary.

Pretty sure she absolutely was elected with intent to disobey a Federal Judge if gay marriage were deemed a federally protected right.....because thats what she did. Her convictions regarding "her faith" aren't anything new and were likely a part of her campaign platform.

Either way, she's insufferable.

Maybe, not too many Democrats run on that position though, and all indications are she ran on her past experience (having worked at the office as a deputy clerk since 1991. And again, I doubt she worked there for a couple of decades just waiting to tell some Federal Judge to feth off.

But attribute what you want to her if it makes you feel better.

We're looping, and there isn't any new news at the moment.
