i believe she is trying to uphold the laws of kentucky, which have not yet been changed to agree with the supreme court decision. it seems that states rights have also been thrown by the wayside in favor of media hype. jailing this woman is a travesty.

She wasn't jailed for practicing her religion. She was jailed for using the government to force others to practice her religion. A big difference.

Can you tell us specifically which Supreme Court decisions that Pres. Obama has ignored?

Yes, and so can you if you use Google or Yahoo or Bing, etc. It's not up to me to provide this information for you if you don't pay attention to the daily news.

Very coy but typically dishonest ... Executive Orders, selective enforcement or non-enforcement of statutes ... Obama is dishonest and should be sitting side by side with the KY clerk if the law were truly implemented in an equal fashion ... and deep down, I think you know that hence your sophistry.

Not quite correct, Chi-Town. She was wrong, but she was also going by her documented instructions until the court ruling could be made into KY law and documented. Technically, she was following the letter of her instructions on KY marriage requirements. But, she refused to sign marriage licenses for gays, because she didn't believe in it. That made her wrong by court order. She should have quit her job, if she felt that way.

I disagree. She was elected to perform specified tasks, and she is morally opposed to one of those tasks.

A truly moral person would resign, not keep the perks and her moment in the limelight. A moral person would remove herself from the perceived immorality.

There were so many posts I agree with in here I almost didn't quote any. I have to say I'm very happy to see how civil this thread has been I've seen many other that are a lot less controversial that go straight into the gutter. A big thank you to all the thoughtful posts. :BigApplause:

So, in other words, no you cannot tell us which Supreme Court rulings Obama has ignored.

Kinda what I figured

No the poster says you can get off your lazy butt and do your own research.

Obama's lawlessness in terms of ignoring or defying the Constitution is well known and, except for the oblivious like you, not in need of reaffirming the obvious. Besides, all you're really doing is trying to change the subject again

Sure, I can. And if you thought about it, you would remember also. But, think what you want, and bait all you want. I enjoy bantering along with trolls on occasion.

When you phrase a Google search like that what are you going to get?Judicial Watch, Washington Examiner, The Guardian, Committee For Justice, Newsbusters, Washington Times.....kind of a who's who of very conservative rags and blogs. Nothing but opinion.

Chi-Town, actually, you are right. I noticed that too. Quite refreshing, considering the fact that Google seems to favor a liberal view in most things, somehow. But, if it's true, does it matter where it came from? :highfive:

You are absolutely right that those websites are worthless. I really would not read anything on my computer from them for fear of my computer catching some virus spread by them.

Interesting - when I worked in Washington DC, the Washington Examiner was given away free at all the Metro stations. It had a good crossword puzzle to make the commute easier. I never bothered reading the tabloid but enjoyed The Washington Post and talking to the other partners about before the daily meetings.

I delivered the Washington Post when I was a kid. Long time ago. But, I digress. It's too bad that a liberal isn't open minded enough to read ALL the information sources. When I get up in the morning, the first TV news station I watch is a liberal one, then the second one is also. I don't turn FOX on until I've had to endure each local station repeat the same old local news twice or more. I also peruse Huffington from time to time. And I do know that a lot of liberals watch FOX because otherwise they wouldn't even know anything is happening in the world, regardless of politics or world news. CNN is a good source for world news but their commentary is wacko. But, thanks to the liberals, FOX cable NEWS is the number one rated cable news network. Couldn't have done it without you all.
By the way, we used to get the Washington News, but I think it was sold off a long time ago. I'm talking of the '50's.
