Gov. Matt Bevin Says Kim Davis Is An Inspiration To ‘The Children Of America’

In the wake of the Supreme Court’s marriage equality ruling in 2015, Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis became a Religious Right hero for her refusal to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, thanks largely to the work of the anti-LGBTQ legal organization Liberty Counsel, which not only represented Davis in her legal battles but worked tirelessly to portray her as a martyr and a civil rights hero.

To this day, Liberty Counsel continues to use Davis and her story to promote its right-wing agenda, and just last month used its own publishing imprint to produce her autobiography, “Under God’s Authority: The Kim Davis Story.”

Yesterday, Liberty Counsel released a video promotion for the book narrated by founder and chairman Mat Staver that featured not only Davis but Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin, who heaped praise on Davis for “her boldness [and] her conviction” in “knowing that she was right.”

“Against all the scorn, all the enmity, all the vitriol, all the nastiness, she stood firm,” Bevin said. “I think Kim Davis is without question an inspiration, not only to leaders like myself—people in the public arena and those outside the public arena—but to my children, the children of America. People, even if they disagree with her, have got to respect the fact that here is a woman who was willing to put it all on the line out of conviction for what she believed and knew to be her right as an American citizen. And her faith and her conviction in the fact that that faith was protected by the First Amendment in our Constitution—in our Bill of Rights, specifically—is something that she was willing to put front and center, and if that’s not admirable, if that’s not something we would want all Americans to emulate, I don’t know what is.”

4. Oh yes, the children of America are absolutely nuts about Kim Davis.

“Kim Davis, Kim Davis, Kim Davis” is all you hear from the children of America these days. She put it all on the line (kids love that) and stood fast in her hyper-religious zeal to deny fellow citizens the right to legal marriage, so it follows that American kids just can’t get enough of Kim Davis. Call it a groundswell, but it feels more like a tsunami of adoration that kids (American kids, specifically) have for their red, white and blue, freedom-loving, compassionate Kentucky idol, Kim Davis. She’s THE woman every child in America aspires to be, whether they know it or not.
