who cares what he wore? it says very little about the man.
what is more telling is he is ok with what she is doing and continuing to do.
What he chose to wear is also symbolic as to the image that he desired to convey.
Contempt of the overall process; so no need to get into the Sunday best outfit.

Call me superficial but I do. This was a planned event, this shows poor judgement or easily manipulated to look like an innocent farmer or no fucks will be given or he simply doesn't own some decent khakis and a shirt plus he's not capable of shopping for them he needs mommy to take care of that.
Yes it does say something about the man.

shrug. yes it is superficial.
I don't doubt he does not own a pair of khakis. i doubt he has any reason to wear them. for the picture? why?
go spend $50 for something he is going to wear once? seems silly to me.

agreed.
the women should be fired or in jail. she has had chance after chance. wonder if the judge will call her back.
I agree that she should be back in jail. (I don't know if it can be done under federal law in this case, but personally, I'd like to see her put there for a significant, fixed period of time - say a month or three - rather than simply until she decides to obey the court's order, however temporarily - just to make things actually uncomfortable for her dumbass, time and taxpayer-money wasting, game-playing self.)
I'd be greatly surprised if the Court doesn't drag her back in to "explain herself." But apart from being forced to play a ping-pong game of jailing her for contempt, releasing her when she "promises to obey," and then <rinsing and repeating> when she comes up with yet more weasel-y bullshit, I'm not sure what, if any, authority a Federal court has to impose alternate arrangements in an effort to permanently resolve the matter. From that perspective, I find the situation interesting. From every other perspective, I've long since been bored to the point of ignoring it, or rather I should say ignoring the steady stream of media reports on Davis' latest antics and pronouncements.
As has been mentioned several times, she can't be "fired", she can only be impeached, and only by the Kentucky legislature, which isn't likely to happen.

How many times have we been over this? She is elected to office. You cant just fire her.

From the article assuming the licenses are void which I doubt will be the case. Seemed like the next logical step is to appoint someone else to handle marriage certificates. That would be interesting.
It will be interesting to see what happens next, since I'm not at all sure a Federal court has that authority. I wonder when/if Kentucky will formally get involved?

I keep getting the feeling that most of the people she works with hate her. The happy chubby guy could be appointed by the court he seemed pretty happy to issue licenses again last week.
Then I wonder how he'd feel doing a portion of her job for no extra pay?
The original back up guy seemed to not like her crap I'm guessing this is why he started to turn people away. Did he do this because he was sick of her crap or was he really concerned about getting in trouble for issuing them when she was in the office?

sure. but that doesn't change that fact she needs to be gone.
refusing to do your job should be grounds for removal.
I don't know that a Federal court has the authority to "appoint" anyone as a State official for any reason, any more than it can remove Davis from office even for willfully and repeatedly disobeying a lawful US District Court order...

Presumably it is grounds for impeachment, but the Kentucky legislature doesn't seem interested in pursuing that.

The previous linked article mentioned its possible that the court can appoint someone to do that job if compliance is not possible using other means.
