Rowan County Clerk, Kim Davis, will likely have to stand in front of a federal judge to find out whether or not she will have to face fines for not performing her job. Davis refuses to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples because of her religion. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.
Should she be impeached? Can she perform her job if she has religious objections? Let us know in the comments below.

“A county clerk who invoked “God’s authority” as she defied the U.S. Supreme Court yet again on gay marriage Tuesday refused to resign and now must face a federal judge who could impose fines or send her to jail.
Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis turned away several gay and lesbian couples who sought marriage licenses — some for a fifth time — even though the Supreme Court denied her last-ditch appeal the night before.
“To issue a marriage license which conflicts with God’s definition of marriage, with my name affixed to the certificate, would violate my conscience. It is not a light issue for me. It is a Heaven or Hell decision,” she said through her lawyers.”

The federal judge has spoken. NORMALLY if you do not abide by the order, you are arrested. NOTHING TO THINK about. The judge ruled already. If you want to appeal it, that’s your right. You do NOT have the right to not abide by the judges ruling. PERIOD !!!
Welcome to kick-back snow-shoveling politics here. She can be fired for dereliction of duty. She can not show up without wearing a shirt, just as much as she can not go against a federal judge ruling.
