[On Kim Davis not wanting to put her name on same sex marriage licenses.]

Lots of posters are discussing what the fix should be, and saying things like the Governor's actions are a fix.

Perhaps - but only if the people of Kentucky wish to bend over, and acknowledge the will of the Federal Government on this issue. The People of Kentucky had - up to that point - refused to codify gay marriage. Many States had, including California, when this challenge was brought to SCOTUS.

But the activists weren't content to be judged by a jury of their State peers. They wished to troll the waters which they felt contained the majority that they sought (and - as testament to their deviancy, couldn't even find such waters in CALIFORNIA! lol).

This is about judicial activism. About liberalism, and its ability to infect and mutate. All it takes is enough members of a certain political persuasion to infect a majority of the Bench, and - viola! - laws!? WTF.

The dissenters @ SCOTUS explain clearly where the majority drastically overreached - just as Ambulance Chaser has (though I have little doubt that the brainwashing propaganda upon which AC bases his argument is so engrained as to elicit a physical reaction if challenged).

Here is what should have happened. The Governor has an obligation to the people of Kentucky; not first the federal government. I believe the Governor should have again polled the people of Kentucky to determine whether or not to compel a constitutional crisis over this issue. I believe that this is a serious overreach on the part of fedgov, and issues like this are intentionally chosen to continue the pressure to squash states rights and institute FEDGOV as the sole legit governing body.

That is not how a representative republic should be; not what the Constitution demands it be.

If the people of Kentucky demand that their voice be heard in refusing to codify gay marriage in their own state, then the Governor should honor those wishes, and refuse to obey this insipid ruling, forcing the crisis I mention.

Federal government needs to be challenged and put back in its rightful - far less powerful - place. Everything is being Federalized around you, people. Wake up.
