How is Kim Davis (county clerk) a democrat?

[kage69]

the guy wont even answer how old he is. Its amazing. Im guessing he is over 55 probably over 63. No one accuses anyone of being a commie unless they are old.

I don't really care much about his age, smarts (or the lack of them in this case) can be found in a variety of age groups. I'm definitely more alarmed by his warped view on history paired with limited critical thinking and comprehension issues. The commie remark does kind of confirm it though, as well as hint at an older guy, you're right. I'm guessing school wasn't his thing, maybe he blames all the commies and Democrats that saturate that horribly liberal North East for his lack of achievement? Who knows. What we do know is going by his posts in this thread he is certainly no scholar or historian. Professional talk radio junkie? Perhaps. I digress, let's not make this about him. There are plenty of numpties on this forum, he's not that special.

Gardener, in the interest of saving time and not derailing anymore, how about we go back to discussing the topic, and you go back to Fox and Friends and your Hotpockets and cats or whatever...

I understand someone older being fearful of communists though. They grew up with tons of anti-Communism propaganda. Thats why I asked. Nobody under 45 is accusing anyone of being a communist.

 

[JSt0rm]

What does age have to do with it? I don't accuse people of being Communists. I just point it out. Be proud. Show your heritage. Slavery, voting against civil rights and your party absorbing the Communists. You can invent politically correct words like Progressive and Moving Forward, but we still know what they mean. You believe your own PC bs.

tldr: I didnt accuse anyone of being a communist I just pointed out that they ARE communists. :biggrin:

You are funny man.

I like how Huckabee doesn't want his regurgitated stupidity having to share a stage with someone who enjoys making themselves look like the same kind of fool.

This is my jaw-dropping display of legal and moral ignorance Ted, go find your own! Shouldn't you be making machine gun bacon somewhere? Piss off shorty!

Maybe I was wrong about this whole thing. Watching Huckabee and Cruz both try to suck this sideshow for all it's worth (and keep the change) is turning out to be some pretty good stuff! Cruz's dejected look, plus him getting almost cut out of his "Hey look and me and Kim Davis!" pic, has made my day.

Shouldn't you be making machine gun bacon somewhere?

Maybe he decided that a "fiascally conservative" republican shouldn't do that when it costs about $80 worth of ammo to cook $3 of bacon.

Then again, this "fiscally responsible" republican had no problem shutting down the government for no reason and causing an unneccesary $24 billion hit to the economy...

buahahah. what moron thought they could use that song for a public performance without retaining the rights?

Sometimes the band doesn't realize that the rights were obtained legally through other entities that were already licensed. This happened when Nintendo used the True Romance theme on a Paper Mario commercial (think it was the GameCube one: The Thousand Year Door). Hans Zimmer's people filed a lawsuit and quickly dropped it when they found out that Nintendo had obtained the rights to use it properly.

Let's wait and see here.

Apparently she's been divorced 3 times?

OP fails once more...

Is that all you can add to the discussion?

 

[brycejones]

In the northeast, she'd be making twice that.

And you think that no Democrats are homophobes or racists? Heck, more Democrats voted against civil rights legislation in the 60's than Republicans. And who were the slaveowners??? Democrats of course. And who were the KKK??? Democrats of course. Too bad the history books have all been changed due to revisionists, trying to cover up the Democrats' evil past.

Then why all the outrage over the Confederate flag? Slavery was abolished 150 years ago!

Yes, typical Liberal response. Kill the messenger. Don't listen to the truth.

And by the way, I am the product of a Boston public education. And another insult? This time to home schooled kids? Studies show that they do better. And by the way, I'm not a Republican. I only vote that way because I my only other choices are Communists. Yes you are right. Things have changed since the 60's. Commies have taken over the Democratic party.

In two posts you have fully revealed yourself as an idiot who doesn't understand history. Also wtf is up with the commie line?

But thank you for so quickly outing yourself now I can just look for the lulz.

 

[who?]

If you believe in taxing the rich and using the money to help the poor you're a democrat. And since Jesus said to give away all your riches and help the poor isn't Christianity like the democrat party line?

All that is needed really.

Jesus didn't say to take money by force from other people to help the poor. It's a personal responsibility meant to promote Christianity. People don't say "Thanks for the subsidized loan, rich taxpayers I don't know and agnostic government. You are responsible for my success and I owe you, big time. I think I'll become a Christian now."

People appreciate personal generosity more than government entitlements. Give a poor person $200 in food and another $200 in food stamps and ask them both the next day if they've been touched by someone's generosity.

I seem to recall something attributed to this jesus fellow along the lines of "Easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven."

It's hard to take christianity's salesmen seriously when they so clearly ignore the words of the guy they claim to cherish and follow. When there are no more Joel Osteens pulling in $30million+ a year or Creflo Dollars asking congregations for $60mil private jets, I think self-described christians will find a lot less people laughing at them on the issue of money.

Also, like it not, the Dems are a hell of a lot closer to the christian stance on the poor than Repubs. Somewhere along the line it seems like the repubs decided nationalism and money were more important than whatever they claim jesus said.

"All Republicans are..."

You seem to think that rich greedy Republicans are the same thing as everyday conservatives and that all Democrats are agnostic philanthropists. Before we had big government to support our needy we had communities and neighbors who took it upon themselves to plow that field when the farmer was injured, feed and house the needy, etc. The generosity of the wealthy was much more appreciated. A wealthy person may not give now because they know it totals with what is taken and they always have to worry about how much more might be taken.

 

[kage69]

The cognitive dissonance these people are exhibiting is nothing short of amazing.

http://www.westernjournalism.com/cl...ack-in-a-big-way-against-a-high-level-target/

"Rowan County, Ky., Clerk Kim Davis has filed a suit against the highest target in the state, Kentucky’s Democrat Governor Steve Bashear, charging that his actions have caused her “irreparable injury” and that what he did led to the infringement of her First Amendment rights."

"In her lawsuit, Kim Davis says that Beshear’s “order” was illegal because he has no power over her as an elected official and further says that his actions violate her First Amendment rights. With all this, Davis and her legal team say she is “facing immediate and substantial harm and consequences for exercising her individual constitutional and statutory rights.”

The christian persecution complex strikes again!

If you need me to clarify one of my positions, by all means, ask. If you want to attribute sentiments to me that I did not make, then by all means, piss off.

Of course you think that, it's the path of least resistance going on scant details.

Sure, ok.

The generosity of the wealthy was much more appreciated. A wealthy person may not give now because they know it totals with what is taken and they always have to worry about how much more might be taken.

Completely subjective. And I might add as someone who hails from an extremely wealthy family, the actions of my own parents over the course of decades proves you wrong. And guess what? My family's estate is worth more than I feel comfortable posting online. Why, someone people might even refer to us as greedy rich republicans! Sorry if that mixes up any preconceptions.

 

[kage69]

Oh, also sportsfans, Mrs. Davis here returns to work day after tomorrow, and is saying that she will continue to prevent gay couples from getting marriage licenses. You heard that right.

I think I smell Jail Round 2!

So not only is she flipping the bird to American freedom, the USSC, gay people, and suing the Governor, she wants to double-down on her victimhood mentality and go back to jail.

I guess WWJD really means Who Would Jesus Disenfranchise?

I forgot what its called but I believe that its possible (but it only happens on very rare occasions) that the courts can ban you from filing lawsuits because you have crossed the frivolous line too many times.
I wonder if that will happen here, honestly at what point is it just a utter joke. I realize we're not there yet but lets pretend she starts sending out lawsuits to essentially everyone in Government or a gay couple that forced her to violate her freedoms, pretend there are dozens of these silly suits.

"Christians...they...ignore..."

Suuuure. You weren't ascribing the un-Christian-like behavior of some rich people to "Christians" in general.

Your personal example should only prove to you that this caricature of greedy rich people is just that: a caricature. You don't think your family is the only exception, do you?

As an example of what I was saying, this was just posted in the "climate debt" thread:

USA Today
Poor nations want U.S. to pay reparations

Poorer nations suffering from extreme weather disasters, so much so that their citizens are seeking refugee in safer terrains outside their borders, want rich nations like the United States to pay for reparations and to relocate populations.

US politicians see a tremendous opportunity for them, and their well connected friends, to make money by redistributing your wealth ...

Your politicians want you to pay your climate debt. Their friends, and their foundations, are wanting, and waiting, to redistribute your wealth to their third world political friends...

The Political Science is settled...

Uno

So, when another country has a natural disaster and our country volunteers money and manpower, how do you think the recipients would look at it if it were a forced "reparation" by the International community instead of it being our charity? Exactly the same way welfare recipients see their benefits from the government versus personally receiving the same thing directly from willing benefactors.

It isn't "charitable" to use the law to take money for those less fortunate. It's reducing charity and sustaining people who may not be deserving. Even those who may not be deserving would have more incentive to "earn it" and use it wisely if they were face to face with their benefactor and knew that the flow would stop if they did not do what they were supposed to do. If I give to someone and they buy drugs or do something self-destructive, I stop. If the welfare system gives, they'd prefer not to know.

Taxes are lower now then they have been. What's the problem? Welfare? Hardly. That's another single issue boogieman used to get you to the polls to vote against your own interests.

Wow, so, credit where credit is due!

Trump takes a position that doesn't involve racism and insults, actually comments on a situation and makes sense! I have to say, did not see this coming:


Excerpt from Morning Joe, when asked about Davis...

“Well, look, the decision came down from the Supreme Court, Gene, so I’m a believer on both sides of the picture. I would say the simple answer is let her clerks do it. Now from what I understand, she’s not letting her clerks do it either. The other simple answer is rather than going through this because it’s really a very, very sticky situation, a terrible situation, 30 miles away they have other places. They have many other places where you get licensed. and you have them actually quite nearby. That’s another alternative. I hate to see her being put in jail. I understand what they’re doing. It would be certainly nice if she didn’t do it but other people in her office do it. But from what I understand, she won’t allow other people in her office to do it. You have to go with it. I mean you have to go with it. The decision has been made, and that is the law of the land.”

Trump just gained some respect in my eyes - he just decided not to try and milk this issue for all it's worth, unlike the tools Huckabee and Cruz.

I'm not sure why he hates seeing her go to jail. I think that's a great place for people like her to spend some time. Really does a decent job preventing them from illegal acts that disenfranchise their fellow citizens. I, like many others I bet, would have preferred her to behave in a way more in line with her oath of office, Federal law and common sense, but the call of the martyr is apparently just too much to resist for these innocent victims of the gay agenda.

I think Monday we'll see Kim Davis, the 'protector of marriage' who has been married 4 times and had 2 kids out of wedlock, get her wish and go right back to jail. Cool.
