Nonsense. She swore an oath to support and defend the U.S. and the Kentucky Constitutions, and all constitutional laws. Period. THAT is her obligation.
And faux "gay" "marriage" violates all of the core stated purposes of both constitutions.
Whether the faux gay marriage law violates the constitution or not, it is not her job to decipher the law but to enact the law. There is a difference. I vehemently disagree with the marriage rights that SCOTUS pulled fro thin air in which it has no authority to do so. We have a legislative body it is called Congress. The Judicial body’s job is to interpret the laws that are written. They are not to write the law nor do they have any constitutional authority to create rights. That is the Legislative body’s authority. In this case I agree with you that violates the Federal Constitution which supersedes the individual states constitution in areas where Federal authority has the mandate to do so.
However, since she is not in a position to make laws or enforce them, her duties are to enact them, that is what she must do or remove herself from doing the job she was elected for. She is a public servant. A public servant’s job is to not pick and choose what they will or will not follow, they must enact upon the laws as they are in the course of their duties even if the laws do get changed while she is in office. A public servant must enact laws without bias or prejudice. In this case she has prejudice because of her faith. She is responsible for all citizens under her jurisdiction.
Again I will defend her rights to believe what she wants, she could believe in and worship purple cows for all I care, it’s when the prejudice of worshipping purple cows prevents her from enacting laws to each and every citizen under her jurisdiction that is at fault in this case. As it is the same for 0bummer when he refuses to enforce the immigration laws.
But you yourself stated “She swore an oath to support and defend the U.S. and the Kentucky Constitutions, and all constitutional laws. Period. THAT is her obligation.” So you made my point right there.
If you disagree with a law that is also your right to change it. I disagree with a great many laws that I feel are unconstitutional. Do I not follow those laws as well because in my sole judgement they are unconstitutional? This is a slippery slope my friend be careful where it takes you because that rabbit whole is deep and wide and fraught with many pratfalls.
We are a nation of laws and we must abide those laws. If we do not like the law then we must do everything in our power to change the law.
