Welcome friends!
I was just chuckling over the latest news item on Kim Davis. If you haven’t been reading the papers recently she’s that mildly frightening backwoods county clerk from Kentucky or Tennessee or some such place who has been in the news recently for refusing to carry out her official duties in terms of issuing marriage licenses to gay people. Why was she doing that you ask? Didn’t the Supreme Court just rule on that recently? Why yes but like every conservative Ms. Davis is mostly concerned with what she herself wants to do. In the vernacular, she don’t need no stinking laws. Thus, like every other obnoxious power grabbing petty local bureaucrat who has ever lived she apparently felt entirely justified in doing whatever the hell she wanted to do. In this case she looked into her blinkered heart and determined that at least in her little neck of the woods only straight people would be getting marriage licenses no matter what those power grabbing Supreme Court big shots in Washington might say about it. To make a long story short they carted her off to the local slammer and her deputies ended up doing her job for her. But I just read the other day she’s out again. Maybe now she’ll do her job and then again maybe she won’t. Don’t worry though. Conservative Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas, offered to take her place in jail the next time she flouts the law. I think they should take him up on the offer. The best case scenario would be for Ms. Davis to get canned and Mr. Huckabee to serve a long jail term thus ensuring he cannot harm any innocent bystanders via electoral mishap...

If you find my timeless jewels of wisdom amusing or perhaps even amusingly irritating throw me a bone now and then. Thank you my friends!
