BREAKING: Same Judge Who Jailed Kentucky Clerk Kim Davis Orders Her Release"Gavin Newsome in San Francisco as mayor performed same-sex weddings even though it was illegal. Did he ever get put in jail? He most certainly did not." –Former Governor Mike Huckabee
District Judge David Bunning reportedly issued Davis' release from the Carter County Detention Center on Tuesday, he was the same judge who had ordered her to jail without bail last Thursday. A rally in support of Davis was planned by GOP presidential candidate Gov. Mike Huckabee for later on Tuesday. [CBN News] Attorneys for Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis had officially appealed a judge's decision to jail her for refusing to issue marriage licenses to gay couples [because of her Christian faith].
Even so, there are those on the right who think she should back down. "I respect the fact that this lady doesn't agree, but she's also a government employee," Gov. John Kasich, R-Ohio, said. "She's not running a church—I wouldn't force this on a church—but in terms of her responsibility, I think she has to comply." Davis' legal team says she's committed both to following her conscience—and keeping her job. "She has no intention of stepping down because she loves her people and loves her job," attorney Mat Staver, chairman of Liberty Counsel, said. Her attorneys are asking that the government accommodate her beliefs by simply removing her name and title from marriage certificates.
Meanwhile, among conservatives, there's growing outrage over Davis' imprisonment. "Gavin Newsome in San Francisco as mayor performed same-sex weddings even though it was illegal. Did he ever get put in jail? He most certainly did not," GOP presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee noted. "You have Barack Obama and Eric Holder," the former Arkansas governor continued. "When he (Holder) was attorney general, they ignored the rulings of DOMA. Did they get put in jail for ignoring the law? They most certainly did not."
