Rowan County Clerk, Kim Davis, will likely have to stand in front of a federal judge to find out whether or not she will have to face fines for not performing her job. Davis refuses to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples because of her religion. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

Should she be impeached? Can she perform her job if she has religious objections? Let us know in the comments below.

“A county clerk who invoked "God's authority" as she defied the U.S. Supreme Court yet again on gay marriage Tuesday refused to resign and now must face a federal judge who could impose fines or send her to jail.

Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis turned away several gay and lesbian couples who sought marriage licenses — some for a fifth time — even though the Supreme Court denied her last-ditch appeal the night before.

"To issue a marriage license which conflicts with God's definition of marriage, with my name affixed to the certificate, would violate my conscience. It is not a light issue for me. It is a Heaven or Hell decision," she said through her lawyers.”

1. Your conscience wasn't to bothering you after 3 divorces though was it?

2. she'd have to show me

the exact passage in the bible forbidding same sex marriage. It doesn't exist. She should be ousted.

3. Rowan County, that's how

It's a junkie's and open marriage paradise.

Morehead is chock full of local women looking to scam men from Indianapolis, Louisville, Lexington and Cincinnati - and it's a long term scam.

Give him bordering-on-sickening adoration and everything he wants in private favors. Not finish college, but make sure he does. Marry him and have a few children. When his education finally starts to bring home some good bacon, then bring him into the open marriage culture of her rural stomping grounds. Abruptly claim infidelity and take him for everything he has. Find Jesus, then repeat process on unsuspecting man.

I am illustrating this from a cultural standpoint, not an anti-female standpoint.

My point to all of this is that a culture like this is how someone like Mrs. Whatever-Her-Last-Name-Is-This-Week is able to be "elected", proudly turn her nose up at taxpayers with profane impunity and have their support hell-or-high-water.
