(EDITORIAL NOTE: A POST I MADE AROUND 5AM THIS MORNING LAYS OUT THE NEAT TRICK JUDGE DAVID BUNNING APPEARS TO BE PULLING TO AVOID MARTYRDOM FOR KIM DAVIS. I MENTION IT BRIEFLY AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST BUT I WAS LOGGED OFF FREE REPUBLIC AFTER 5AM SO THE POST COULD BE REMOVED FROM THE FRONTPAGE NEWS SECTION)
There have been some on Free Republic asking about Donald Trump's view of Rowan County, Kentucky Chief Kim Davis's act of civil disobedience over gay marriage.
Whatever, I think what counts is that both of them in their own way expose the fake conservatism of the Republican Party apparatus.
Trump has called their bluff on Amnesty and invasion of illegal immigrants. Davis calls their bluff on 'family values' and 'religious freedom'.
When Operation Rescue was coming down in the late 1980's with abortion clinic blockades across the country I held management responsibility for a mainstream media organization and I caught flak not just from the Pro-Abortion liberals for coverage (they knew I was Pro-Life) but from the "Pro-Life Movement".
The National Right To Life operatives didn't want Operation Rescue coverage because civil disobedience disrupted their political approach of gradualism.
This meant using emotional wedges like abortions for minors, at military bases, partial birth and so on to raise money and support Republican politicians who were were "Pro-Life" and would give us the "Pro-Life, Pro-Family" SCOTUS justices who would someday overturn Roe vs. Wade.
We know where that's left us at this moment.....
As I posted earlier my hunch is that Judge Bunning is trying to get things over with quickly and relieve Kim Davis of any 'martyr' status ASAP.
It looks like a neat trick from a Republican Establishment judge.
In a few minutes the gay plantiffs enter the Rowan County, Kentucky Clerk's Office. They get marriage licenses from the clerks who told the judge they would give them.
Then Bunning gets to release Davis I strongly suspect.
I suggested the alternate "We Shall Not Be Moved" scenario involving concerned citizens.
We shall see things play out momentarily.
That’s an especially heinous accusation, doubting Old Sarge’s military credentials. I’m a vet too, I could mail you my d.d.214 to prove it (That ain’t gonna happen) you owe Old Sarge an apology but I’m guessing, that ain’t gonna happen either.
Oh, boy. That’s a serious charge.
No i do not owe Sarge an apology. he owes me an apology because he claimed I was a fake pastor. I served in the military to and was paralyzed so give me no rhetoric about apologizing to so called sergeant whom thinks he can push someone around because the person disagrees with the so called politics of the Donald. Grow up. I stated his calling me a fake pastor is like my calling him a fake soldier. so thanks for your service but I think Old sarge can fight his own battles!
After a very brief look at your posting history you certainly aren’t bashful about personal attacks on Freepers, that’s a little strange you being a pastor with your advanced degrees.
Well, Mr. all-knowing hondact200, I am stunned that you would accuse Old Sarge of stolen valor, but then it occurred to me that you were
never courteous enough to trouble yourself to look at his home page, where you would have found that his valor was definitely not stolen.
You’re behavior is beneath contempt, and even though you’re supposedly a “long-time” FReeper, I would recommend that you look before
you leap the next time you rant about anyone of stolen valor or any other nasty accusation leaping from your fevered brain.
Best wishes for your tenure here at Free Republic. By the way, have you donated yet?
That was really un-called for, Honda. I don't care how hot the argument is.
so old sarge can call me a fake pastor where is the outrage there too. Oh I forget Free Republic has become the block for neo-conservatives. Forget the conservatives. I did not sdeny his service I just turned his verbage back on him. Boy the next thing you will say is that I called him a communist too!
Thank you for your brave service, but YOU need to do some research before YOU call another fellow military guy disrespectiful and insulting names!
Kim Davis is a Democrat.
...Maybe it will be WAS a democrap
Step One: it’s FR courtesy to ping the man you’re talking about - if you were here as long as you claim, you’d know that.
Step Two: The vets here have each others’ backs - an attack on one of us is an attack on us all. If you were here as long as you claim, you’d know that.
Step Three: accusing someone of Stolen Valor is not a popular thing to do here on FR - if you were here as long as you claim, you’d know that.
So answer Shibumi: what WAS your former screen name?
***************************
Keep whining. Your argument is becoming less and less believable with every post.
Well let's see here - about this "neocon" thing...
I was a member of the Young Americans for Freedom on a major college campus in 1967, which led me to a personal meeting and introduction with William F. Buckley Jr.
The following year I enlisted in the US Army (Regular Army) and in 1970 did a combat tour in VietNam assigned to MACV.
And I know for a fact that Old Sarge is the Real Deal.
Last year I had the pleasure of meeting over 20 of my fellow FReepers and I didn't find a "neocon" in the whole bunch.
Now *YOU* I'm not so sure about.
Just what was your former screen name?
Waiting.
Waiting.
Waiting"
Patience Dear.
It takes a while to get here on a 90cc MoPed -
Don't be bashful, hondact200, we're all curious.
” I did not sdeny his service “
LOL.
Got stomped, now backpedal.
"Rrrrriiinnnnnnnnnnnnnn!"
Last year I had the pleasure of meeting over 20 of my fellow FReepers and I didn't find a "neocon" in the whole bunch.
Thank you, my friend. That was a get-together to remember, wasn't it? I had a whale of a time, and it was so good to meet you and the rest of the gang.
I’ll be moving down there soon.
Get togethers will be more frequent!
