Lawyers for Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis say the marriage licenses are legal....

Lawyers for Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis say the marriage licenses issued by her office are binding — and no further action is required by a federal judge to change them.

"Marriage licenses are being issued in Rowan County, which [Kentucky Gov. Steven Beshear] and Kentucky attorney general have approved as valid, which are recognized by the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and which are deemed acceptable by the couples who received them," her lawyers said in court filings Tuesday.

Perhaps the taxpayers should petition the legislature to remove her.

That is excellent news indeed.

The thrice-divorced hypocrite can suck on it. Maybe fondling her bible, or hubby #4, will sooth all those moral outrages caused by having to fulfill her sworn secular duty as an elected official.

damn sure that Kim Davis is actually recording their marriages and not just tossing the signed paperwork in the trash when it comes back after the wedding. I don't trust that bigoted asshole not to try one more end run around the law.
