A new Associated Press-Gfk poll has revealed that most Americans now believe that government officials should be required to issue marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples, even if the official has religious beliefs that oppose same-sex marriage.
The poll shows 56 percent of Americans now believe that government officials and clerks should be required to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, regardless of personal religious objections. Only 41 percent of Americans polled believe that religious government officials, like notorious Kentucky clerk Kim Davis, have a right to deny couples a marriage license.
The new numbers signify a shift in thought from a July poll taken weeks after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of same-sex marriage. The July poll showed that 49 percent of Americans believed that officials with religious objections had the right to refuse couples a marriage license.
Surprisingly, Republican opinions have shifted the most dramatically in the past four months. While a majority 58 percent still support religious objections, the number is down 14 points from July’s 72 percent.
To be honest this shift cannot be entirely laid at the feet of Kim Davis, but let's face it when you are looking for the ugly face of Christian homophobia and discrimination in this country she turned out to be perfect for the job.
I am talking about the deep down ugly that she tries to camouflage with religion.
Because beauty may only be skin deep, but this kind of prejudice and hatred penetrates the marrow of your bones.
Davis took office last January 5, when marriage equality had already come to more than 35 states. The figures are good but the question is wrong. It should be whether you should even run for a public office that is sure to be at odds with your alleged religious beliefs. Phrased that way, I'm sure the numbers would be even better against her.
ReplyDelete"Half the harm done in the world is due to people who want to feel important." Let's not kids ourselves; the bitch just wanted an easy, certain path to notoriety, and she had no accomplishments to foster it.
Her "religion" is completely against make-up. Yet I noticed she wore some for a few interviews. When in Rome, eh, Kim?
ReplyDeleteJust like the Duggars, lol, religious convictions go out the window in the seeking of a bit of TeeVee time.
DeleteWhat's the saying.....beauty is only skin deep but ugly goes to the bone. That would apply here.
ReplyDeleteThen there's that "my body is a temple"..... oh forget that one. Pass the eyebleach.
DeleteBefore you laugh at the way she looks ...remember this
ReplyDeleteKim has had 3 husbands versus none for Bristol.
You know, she wouldn't look half bad if she cut that long hair off and styled it. She's waaaaay too old to wear her hair that way.
ReplyDeleteOk I'll comment on her appearance.Bitch looks like a mule drinking vinegar.Enough said.
ReplyDeleteHey, my mules are insulted by that remark!
DeleteShe cares enough to have her eyebrows plucked and shaped. She's clearly an internal contradiction.
ReplyDeleteAlso an outward one. Her face is making me want to marry another man.
ReplyDeleteYou can tell a lot about ones health by looking at their tongues... Kim, you are seriously ill.
ReplyDeleteHey and I didn't even mention her looks.
Every time I see that pic of her with the crosses, I think that she should be planted on top of the cross, same as how the little angel was planted on top of the Xmas tree. Don't know the story? Look it up.
ReplyDeleteLook it up
DeleteJust google: angel santa tree
and scroll down to The Little Angel.
Let's face it, no matter how ugly she is on the inside she needs to make a gay friend to give her a makeover.
ReplyDeleteA large breasted, fat assed, homophobic Christian sow.
ReplyDeleteThere, I've said it. Truth is truth.
She deserves every dig thrown her way, she's no barometer of morality yet thinks she's got a sky fairy on her side. And I use "She" and "her" loosely because she is.
ReplyDeleteConsidering conservatives constantly make fun of how more liberal minded women look, I'm going to throw it right back at them. Conservative women have only two looks-frumpy and floozy. Kim Davis, Michelle Duggar and Candy Carson are all frumpy. Sarah Palin, Chicks on the Right, Ann Coulter and various Fox News Fembots are all floozies.
