Okay, So Maybe They Should Have Asked for Beer Cans Instead
It appears that County Clerk Kim Davis ain’t gonna get rich off this stunt.
Too damn bad they won’t let you donate two cents.
And if she had any hopes for a stylist at her next wedding, she can count that out, too.
Married 4 times and evidently quite adept at adultery among other things

Breaks my heart.
2“Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s, render unto God that which is God’s”.
Why can’t the dumb broad do what her “jebus” tells her to do?
She’s trying to make a martyr of herself so she can get the evangelical community to make her a heroine and support her. She needs to be a baker, first, though.
3One Amerodollar in 5 days?
Ouch, that’s gotta hurt!
4I love the comment that goes with the $1 donation: “For cigarettes at the jail canteen, which is where she belongs.” Yeah, the next SuperDeluxe Christian martyr in the making, unfortunately. I bet you dollars to donuts that she’ll be campaigning along side Ted Cruz before too long.
5People are just getting their social security checks this week, so the amount should go up soon. Also, I think donating two cents is too much; how about a Zimbabwean dollar?
(In case you didn’t know: Use of the Zimbabwean dollar as an official currency was effectively abandoned on 12 April 2009. The Zimbabwean dollar is due to be demonetised (no longer legal tender) by the end of 2015).
6I wrote the site and asked that her donation page be removed for violating the terms of service: it is promoting discrimination and the violation of Federal law.
7Some are saying she will be next years’ “Joe the Plumber.”
8Can’t wait for the next entry to the Urban Dictionary:
9Doing a “Kim Davis”. What do you think the definition should be?
Chloe Bear, I did something similar. indiegogo’s terms of service say funds can’t be requested for illegal activities. Here’s what I wrote them:
“She is trying to raise money to support an illegal activity. The US Supreme Court has ruled that gay marriage is legal. The US Supreme Court has specifically ruled not to grant her an exception. She’s a county clerk in Kentucky refusing to issue marriage licenses to gays. This is against US law. And she is trying to use Indiegogo to raise money to support this illegal cause. Please advise me about your decisions about allowing her to continue using indiegogo.”
10Now she has two comments. The second one is asking people to donate to a worthy Christian cause instead of Kim Davis’ indiegogo campaign.
11Unfortunately, Dan Savage is right.
She probably will “get rich” with all this sh** she’s pulling.
She will get her money the same way Sarah Palin did. Somebody will ghost write her “autobiography” and she will hit the lecture circuit, and Faux News, and never work again.

At least somebody….. (Dan Savage) finally nailed it.
12I’d send her a dime so she could call someone who cares,if I had a dime and if there were still pay telephones.
13Heard on the TV news that her twins legal father is not their biological father. They were conceived by husband number 3 while she was married to husband number 2. Wonder who filed for divorce? Hope she is paying alimony. The county is paying her a pretty good salary to not do her job.qq
14@Crone: Actually, it’s more convoluted than that. She gave birth to twins five months after divorcing Husband #1–but they were conceived by the guy who became Husband #3. Husband #2 adopted them legally. Then they divorced and she married Husband #3 (the father of the children) and then divorced him to remarry Husband #2. Got that?
I am too easily amused; but, then, I’m not a gay man trying to get married in that county, either.
15My husband says he read that she had Found Jesus (I wish he’d stayed lost) a few years ago, after most of the marriages. Not that that’s an excuse, but it might make her marginally less of a hypocrite. I think she’s just riding this thing like a wave thanks to all the like-minded “Christian martyrs”.
16Marion it will be interesting to read the reply from the site. I too asked for a reply. I think the more folks who write to the site the more likely it will come down.
When do we get to stop fighting?
17Doesn’t she know the approved method of fund raising for that type of actiVity is a big pickle jar at the truck stop? It should have her lovely photograph on it. Not sure what it should say.
18“Make them stop pickin’ on me!”
Invite her to the Beauty Salon and give her a cut she won’t soon forget. I’m thinking something like the pointy haired boss on Dilbert.
19Maybe tRump will kidnap her. Then after a couple of days give her $75k to leave.
20Chloe Bear and Marion-good on both of you. You get the Good Guys award for the day.
21BarbinDC, Holy cow!
It is a good thing the county clerk who issued all those marriage licenses to her was not saved. Wait, that was her momma?
22It’s now an invalid page. Too bad, in a way. I wanted to keep checking and enjoying the embarrassingly poor response.
23Chloe, I’m afraid we may not get to stop fighting until we’re dead and buried. At least I’m hoping it doesn’t continue after that.
24Hey, guess what? I just checked JJ’s link to the indiegogo site and got this:
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/kim-davis-rowan-county-court-clerk#/story
It’s gone, gone, gone. I was just innocently going to check to see if there were more comments.
25I just received an email response from indiegogo. They’ve put Kim Davis’ campaign under review and will decide whether or not to remove it and possibly restrict her from posting future campaigns. They will not inform me of their future actions in order to protect the safety and trust of their customers.
Looks like they’ve removed it temporarily while they’re reviewing.
26As her lawyer, Staver says “it’s not really relevant, it’s something that happened in her past” and that her conversion to Christianity about four years ago wiped her slate clean.
And isn’t that con-veeeeenient for her?
“I got to do whatever I wanted cuz I got this nifty get-out-of-jail-free-card. But if I obey the law, I go straight to hell cuz it’s too late now.”
I’ve got a quote from Susan B. Anthony for the Christian hypocrites: “I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires.”
Here’s a suggestion Miss Holierthanthou – – resign your position. Problem solved. You can always get a job in a bakery. Oh, wait . . . .
27Marion I received the same message. Woohoo!
Le sigh too many battles. I am going for a run.
28If anyone needed a gay male friend, it’s this woman.
29So not doing the job you’re getting paid to do is A-OK? Wouldn’t that be a form of theft?
30The gofundme type page has dissappeared
31She joined a Christian cult at the behest of hubby #4. It’s a Duggar-ish thing where women are subservient, wear long hair, dress in dumpy clothing, etc. Ugh.
