    Conservatives hate people. Will eat their own in a heartbeat.

    Gov. Brownback is just evil

    Not that you're wrong about Brownback, but he's a few states over.

    Just sayin', I think a better name would have been "County Clerk in Kentucky caught on camera canceling couples' clearance."

    If they want to exercise their religious freedom while being paid by the taxpayers, by all means resign. Gay and lesbian couples have a constitutional right to marry, and that can't be stopped because a county clerk thinks it's "icky". Either do your job or find someone who will do it for you.

    I like how she said that they have read the SCOTUS ruling but then said that the clerk could exercise her religious freedom as a christian, completely ignoring national law.

    Oh, conservatives, *grabs popcorn* what hatred fueled idiocy,er, exercise of freedom will you do next?

    Nullification is a bullshit legal doctrine.

    We fought a whole war about it and everything.

    As I always say you don't like same-sex marriage ok that's fine don't marry some one of the same sex that's about as far as you can go though it's not that difficult a concept to grasp

    I didn't realise Christians were allowed to pick and choose which laws they obey.

    Yeah... The county clerk could actually get into some deep trouble for this.

    It's already law the moment SCOTUS ruled in favor for gay-marriage; nobody from any of the states can really do anything against it. And on the nearly impossible idea that they can; a lot of people will be pissed off, and hell would break loose.

    How difficult is it to understand that religion ( if you have one) is something to do in your own time. Leave your "beliefs" at the door when you step into the workplace.... unless of course your workplace is a temple/church/mosque/synagogue etc
