Kim Davis saga continues...back in court at 3:30 PM--tells judge she wants to stay in jail!

[mnhtnbb]

to make a deal with the judge. Five of her six deputies willing to issue licenses (the sixth, her son,
refuses) and if Kim agrees to let them do it, no jail for her.

Maybe Kim didn't like the color orange?

Kim Davis will return to courtroom at 3:30 & tell judge if she's willing to let her deputies obey law over her objections. If not, jail. ^JC

1. She wilts after a few hours?

C'mon, where's the power of faith here?!

[Eleanors38]

5. She didn't bother to quit and curtail her bennies, so an appetite for Thai is understandable.

Light-duty, get some cheap celebrity. American way.

[dixiegrrrrl]

23. I think it backfired on her.

[mnhtnbb]

2. Boy, she didn't even last through lunch!

Maybe the ladies were there to greet her?

[underpants]

6. LOL. She did an interview with Fox News's Todd Starnes

In which was proudly ready to go to jail.

Aaaaand then she did.

[MineralMan]

3. Shit got real, I guess.

7. so much for her "faith"

"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."

Matthew 26:41
http://biblehub.com/matthew/26-41.htm

Really weak flesh too, if you ask me. I was expecting her to hold out at least a few weeks.

[mnhtnbb]

8. I was willing to give her a week.

[Angry Dragon]

4. not much courage in that woman

[woodsprite]

9. Considering she's had 3-4 husbands, it's obvious she changes her mind frequently. n/t

[Angry Dragon]

14. some comebacks come to mind --- but I am not allowed to say them

[mythology]

15. Given what a hateful bigot she is

Maybe the guys realized they could do better and ran for the hills.

[lpbk2713]

21. I don't think "commitment" is one of the prominent words in her lexicon.

Is there such a thing as a fair weather xian?

[Solly Mack]

10. So, she'll keep her job, not do her job, not stop others from doing their job

and the right will call this a moral victory - where the poor, put upon Christian woman stood her ground, staved off those who would persecute the religious, and won big for Jesus.

[mnhtnbb]

11. Says she'll stay in jail!

Kim Davis tells judge she'd rather stay in jail than cooperate with her deputies giving marriage licenses. OK, jail it is, judge says. ^JC

[joeybee12]

12. Of course she does...

More money from similar nutjobs when she writes her book.

[Solly Mack]

13. That's wonderful!

Thank you!

[matt819]

16. Huh?

Rowan county has a population of under 25,000, and there are six county clerks? And one of them is the son of the chief clerk? Nepotism and corruption anyone? I think it's time for the good citizens of Rowan County to take a closer look at their budget.

[mnhtnbb]

17. Kim worked for her momma, too, who was the Clerk for 20 or 30 years.

It's a family tradition!

[brooklynite]

18. Shame...you clearly don't understand the concept of "Clean" graft...

...which says that "all other things being equal", hire your Uncle/Cousin/Son to do the work.

I'd say the rule applies; her son is doing the same fine job that she is.....

[Matariki]

19. They actually have a law on the books allowing that nepotism.

something is wrong with that right there.

[joshcryer]

24. The right wing owns local government.

And yes it's where the deepest roots of cronyism and nepotism exist. It's really messed up how bad it can get.

[closeupready]

20. Suit yourself.

[Oilwellian]

22. Well! Alrighty then!
