Kentucky clerk Kim Davis switching parties to become Republican

LOUISVILLE, Ky – Kentucky clerk Kim Davis, a longtime Democrat, says she is switching to the Republican Party because she feels abandoned by Democrats in her crusade against same-sex marriage.

Davis made the announcement while in Washington, D.C., to attend the Family Research Council's Value Voters Summit, said Charla Bansley, a spokeswoman for Liberty Counsel, which represents Davis in her legal battles.

"I've always been a Democrat, but the party left me," Davis said, according to Bansley.

Davis will address the conservative group Friday night.

1. She's a bigot.

She is probably thinking of ways to make money off of this and she probably will.

Good for her her. She is still a narrow-minded bigot.

[Xipe Totec]

2. Left her like a shit stain in the toilet. nt

[Tripper11]

3. The Party left her???

She can't be serious!

The party Left Her???

[Human101948]

27. Yes, back in 1964...

When the Civil Rights Bill was signed.

4. She does not do her own thinking.

Bet she cannot name one thing the Dems stand for. Tea Party princess!

[Gregorian]

5. We left you around the time of the Civil War.

Sorry you didn't get the message in time.

[OnlyBernieBurnsBush]

7. Just like your abusive ex-husbands?

Feel the Bern, bigots!

[doc03]

8. They are going to use her for this cycle's

"Joe the Plumber"

[Miles Archer]

13. Absolutely true.

Ib the absence of a totally viable candidate, they settled for a new "mascot."

[Attorney in Texas]

9. good riddance

[oberliner]

10. I wonder who gave her that line

How exactly did the party leave her?

[Miles Archer]

14. Reminds me of the Fiorina post I did yesterday...

...her speech writer was asked for the source of a particularly "tall tale" and replied "I don't know."

[Sunlei]

11. Yes Mrs. Davis you are abandoned by Ds.

[Warren DeMontague]

12. The party left you some time between WWII and 1964.

When it stopped coddling segregationists.

[krispos42]

15. Yes, there was "PROGRESS", you see.

Resisting progress means you're CONSERVATIVE.

[krispos42]

16. And it's nice to see that her desire to stop same sex marriage

(which will not stop same-sex sex, same-sex love, or same-sex cohabitation) is far more important to her than caring for the poor, educating children, and caring for the environment.

What WOULD Jesus do?

[hobbit709]

17. No, Kim, you took a sharp right turn on a straight road.

[vanlassie]

18. So, Kim. You voted for Obama?

[TSIAS]

22. I doubt it

Obama is about as popular in Kentucky as marrying outside your family.

[leftofcool]

26. No way in hell she voted for Obama. Fucking bigot that she is!

[backscatter712]

19. Well... Bye.

[Miles Archer]

21. Extremely fitting response.

The best part is that the freepers are taking a victory lap over our "loss."

It would be hilarious if it weren't so sad and delusional.

[Arkana]

25. They were claiming her before anyone knew she was a registered Democrat.

We didn't lose her, we never had her--and after learning what she's about, I don't know why we'd WANT her.

[kairos12]

20. When does she become a public servant as she swore to be? My guess, never.

[closeupready]

23. Vanna White always did the hand thing much better.

[Arkana]

24. We aren't sorry to see the back of you, sweetheart.

Go find yourself another husband--maybe Huck will leave his wife for you.

[SummerSnow]

28. Hope she doesn't run into the Log Cabin Republicans.

[SummerSnow]

29. Now that she is a Rethug, will she vote for Trump? Cause he looks like he will be the GOP nom.

Cause um....

Donald Trump on Kentucky clerk: Same-sex marriage the 'law of the land'

Washington (CNN)Republican front-runner Donald Trump said Friday that he wished a Kentucky county clerk, Kim Davis, was not jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, but he added that the Supreme Court has ruled and it is "the law of the land."

"You have to go with it. The decision's been made, and that is the law of the land," the real estate mogul said Friday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe.""I would say the simple answer is let her clerks do it," he said. "Now from what I understand she's not letting the clerks do it either. The other simple answer is rather than going through this -- because it's really a very, very sticky situation and terrible situation -- 30 miles away they have other places, they have many other places where you get licensed. And you have them actually quite nearby, that's another alternative."


*decisions, decisions*

30. She's a Dixiecrat-style Democrat

Her parents probably supported Strom Thurmond, and that's probably what she thought of as the Democratic Party. Now she sees she's wrong. Good riddance.

[mfcorey1]

31. BYE!!!!!!

[KamaAina]

32. Could she jump into the clown car?

[yuiyoshida]

33. When this story broke I could hard believe she was a Democrat

This woman, never in a thousand years would she back Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton, or any of the others running for President. I KNEW SHE would go to the other party, and betting that Huckabee told her, "Honey you should be a Republican because you have our values" and so good riddance because she is NO ONE we want in our party. She is the one, who someone up thread said, took a very right turn when Democrats were heading forward.

[KentuckyWoman]

34. Sorry Kim, we won't jump off that cliff with you.

I would suggest you let go of Huskster's hand before he drags you off the crazy cliff. But if you are determined to do so then the rest of us had better stay on here on the road so someone can rescue you when you end up a splat at the bottom.

[rockfordfile]

35. hahaha

hahaha for some reason the Benny Hill music I keep hearing in the distant. lol

[spanone]

36. really kim? i believe you left the party...we do not embrace your life of bigotry

on the other hand, the hucklebees of the world think you are the second coming...

so, enjoy your life in that dank and hateful 'party' where you obviously belong

[LostOne4Ever]

37. nana nana hey hey Goodbye

[geek tragedy]

38. bye Felecia, nt

[Buns_of_Fire]

39. A win-win for both parties, it seems to me.

The bubba party gains a new mascot of their same ilk.

Democrats don't have to disavow her.

And she can now proceed to her True Calling: a new career of grifting, probably under the tutelage of the Master, Princess Sparklemoose.
