Quote:Kentucky law, that she was elected to uphold, forbade gay marriage. The SCOTUS decided they knew better what the law of Kentucky ought to be. The people's representative disputes that act of federal tyranny. Pretty simple stuff. If Kentuckians want gay marriage then let their legislature write it into law.

Why is every other county clerk in Kentucky issuing marriage certificates to gay couples?

 

Also, federal law supersedes local and state law. Federal court decisions supersede local and state court decisions, and a Supreme Court decision overrides anything and everything aside from the Constitution itself. That's how this crazy little thing we call the Constitution established American government, and when someone takes a government position, they agree to uphold the Constitution first and foremost. Don't like it? Canada's that way.
