Well, the first question is this -— has the matter been referred to the U.S. Attorney for D.C.?

I doubt it. Ninety percent of what goes on in the Capitol is kabuki theater anyway.

Secondly, Is the U.S. Attorney for D.C. an independent entity or are they under the DOJ?

I believe all U.S. attorneys are under the DOJ. But they don't have a choice. If the matter is referred to them then they have to go to a grand jury.

So when do they start jailing people who ignore federal law regarding illegal aliens?

And the bushes are all NWO people.
Heck hw was the first one I heard say it.

All that furthers their (NWO) agenda is most important.
Homosexuals further the NWO agenda of population reduction.
Screw us breeders.

RE: Ninety percent of what goes on in the Capitol is kabuki theater anyway.

Well, there’s the problem right there — THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESS.

They are simply posturing and by doing so, are signalling to all law breakers that they can get away because they are not serious in exercising their power.

There is more enforcement when it comes to a Clerk in Kentucky than against people who trample our rights like the IRS or the corrupt Justice Department.

We gotta get both Boehner and McConnell outta there.

She's upholding Kentucky law. She is correct.

There's a federal district court judge who says otherwise.

The fact that she held this position before the “gay marriage” proclamation is very important, in my opinion.

She didn’t take the job expecting to “marry” two men or two women or two goats or whatever.

They need to accommodate at least the people who were hired before this.

That said, I think this was badly handled. She or her supporters (I assume she has an attorney and some organizations helping her) should have thought out a strategy.

Maybe her going to jail will get some legal minds out there to think up a strategy.

And we all know what side you stand for.

Go bow to your master and beg that he rests the chains lightly upon your wrist while you plead for him to feed you.

BTW, by that logic, KY has no marriage law at all.....therefor she has NO authority what so ever to issue any marriage licenses at all.

Like I said, she is correct.

Unfortunately Trump CAN’T get on this like white on rice.

Unless he wants to - once again - flip flop on a key issue.


I disagree - one can be in favor of same-sex marriage and aslo be in favor of the religious liberties of those who want nothing to do with it. Assuming he hasn't changed his prior belief re gay marriage, then that's the position Trump should take, and he should come out strongly in her defense.
