What Do You Suppose Huckabee Is Saying To Davis Right Now?....

[global1]

I understand he is now meeting with her. I heard that she was going to be released and that he didn't get a chance to meet with her until after it was known that she was to be released. So I don't think he'll be able to take credit for getting her released. I'm sure this is all a ploy for Huckabee to get into the headlines and try and eek some press away from Trump.

1. Did some rightwing asshole judge release her? If not, what are the grounds?

I don't think I want to know

[sharp_stick]

2. Same judge that jailed her

letting her out as long as she doesn't interfere with providing marriage licenses.

Basically he's cutting her a break, if she'll take it, until the State can figure out how they want to handle it.

[randys1]

7. Interesting, so her staff is complying with the law, and what would be fun now is if she

goes in and orders them not to.

She could step into all kinds of shit with that one, open herself to more lawsuits, I would think.

Jeopardizing other people's employment, etc.

I dont know, all I know is there needs to be a way to make an example of her.

Cause her so much financial concern so the next idiotic dumbshit religious asshole will think twice.

[ScreamingMeemie]

10. The terms are that she can't interfere with the work of the deputy clerks

or she'll be sanctioned.

[randys1]

13. So she agreed to that to get out of jail. Interesting, so she doesn't like jail ...

[immoderate]

3. Nah! Same judge. It's because the office is functioning.

If she prevents her deputies from issuing licenses, she goes back.

4. She said she would not interfere. Her attorney is saying the

licenses are worthless without her signature. This isn't over.

[randys1]

8. So I wonder who could come in and make sure the licenses are valid.

It is clear now that hate is what this is about, as it is one thing to say you personally refuse to participate in Gay marriage, but to go out of your way to prevent people WILLING to participate, to participate?

Wow, hate is ALL this is about.

5. he's trying to sell her some herbal remedy....

[Eleanors38]

6. "Can I be No. 4? Right now?"

[Warpy]

9. Probably telling her she's doing the right thing and she'll go to heaven

The dumb bastard is not making the situation any better for anyone, you can take that to the bank.

11. I don't know but this just came by my FB feed right now

shared by a relative who recently found religion and I wanted to pass it on. Jana Jobe is apparently a youth pastor and she gave permission for everyone to share her analysis, so my relative did.

I was in favor of Kim Davis being jailed last week in Ky because I believed the media when they said she was violating the law by refusing to issue a marriage license to same sex couples. But, I heard a comment from Mike Huckabee that made me wonder if it was true. So I did a little reading. Remember in Civics class where we learned that Congress makes the laws and the Supreme Court interprets them? Ok, in 1996, President Clinton signed the Defense Of Marriage Act (DOMA) into Federal law stating that marriag was between a man and a woman. There was no Federal Law concerning marriage prior to that, so DOMA became THE Federal statute pertaining to marriage. The Supreme Court ruled in 2013 that PART of DOMA was unconstitutional and some states voted to allow same sex marriage. However, they were in conflict with the remaining articles of DOMA. The way Federal Laws work is that state law can be MORE restrictive but it cannot be less restrictive than Federal law. So, some states, who voted to recognize same sex marriage were in conflict with Federal Law. Which is the reason the Supreme Court heard the issue again this year. We all know their decision. But, what we apparently forgot is that since they can't make law, their decision to declare DOMA unconstitutional resulted in there being NO federal law concerning marriage. Which means, jurisdiction falls to the state. And what that means boys and girls is that Kim Davis IS NOT in violation of ANY law by refusing to issue marriage licenses after the SCOTUS ruling. In fact, if she had issued a license to a same sex couple, she would have been in violation of the state laws of Kentucky, which had voted no on the issue.

Congress failed to be prepared to handle the situation resulting from SCOTUS striking down DOMA by writing a new Federal Law so we are left with the issue being handled at a state level. In the states that voted no on this issue, same sex marriage is not Federally protected.

Like it or not, agree with it or not, that's the way the law works in this country.

14. I think you had something interesting to read,

but I need paragraphs.

[Skidmore]

17. I inserted the one paragraph division for you.

It pretty much is intact as Ms. Jobe presented it. Don't know the legalities but I did want to put this up since I imagine there will be people trying to make this argument now. My understanding is that SCOTUS had decided the issue was finished and that all states are required to recognize same sex marriages.

[randys1]

15. More bullcrap from the religious sudden constitutional experts. But it is wrong, Gay marriage is

the law of the land, states cant do jack about it.

[randome]

12. "Couldn't you stay for just a couple more days, Kim? I almost have a lock on the nomination!"

"It's not so bad here, is it? No, of course not! Take one for the team, Kim!"
