Kim Davis Admits She Loves The Attention, Accuses Americans Of Being Intolerant
Kim Davis sat down with Fox Newscommentator Megyn
Kelly last night to talk about the shit storm that is her life. It was
her second nationally televised interview, following a tear-and-snot-filled debacle onGood Morning America.
“For me,” Davis told Kelly, “it’s never been a gay or lesbian issue.”
Instead, she argued, it’s been about “upholding the word of God and how God defined marriage from the very beginning of time.”
But
when Kelly flat out asked Davis why she doesn’t just resign, the
Notorious K.I.M. let it slip that she’s kinda sorta enjoying all the
attention she’s been getting.
“If I resign,” she confessed, “I lose my voice.”
Realizing her gaffe, Davis quickly followed that up by answering Kelly’s question with another question.
“Why
should I quit a job that I love that I’m good at?” she said. “They can
accommodate for all sorts of issues, and we ask for one simple
accommodation and we cannot receive it. I mean, it just doesn’t seem
right!”
The “one simple accommodation”, of course, is permission to defy the U.S. constitution.
Ever
the victim, Davis went on to say that she “begged” and “beseeched”
lawmakers prior to June’s Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality to
pass legislation that would protect God-fearing clerks such as herself
from having to comply with the law, but none of them did anything to
help. She also said she regularly receives “hate emails” and “vile
stuff” in her mailbox, but she refuses to let it get her down because,
as she puts it, she is “someone who God is using” to get his message out
to the masses.
When
Kelly asked if she thought she would actually be arrested for breaking
the law, Davis replied: “In America? In 2015? No. I mean, you know, have
we come to a place that, uh, that we can’t accommodate everybody? That
we can’t agree to disagree? And still have respect for each other? You
know?”
