WITH LIBERTY & JUSTICE OVERALL twitter giggles here It appears that the Kim Davis saga of refusing government service to select citizens is not yet over. Her deputy clerk is issuing marriage licenses in Rowan County while Davis' attorney says his client "will not violate her conscience" when she returns to work soon.

A comment in the New York Times: If your religious faith is paramount then do not swear oaths to secular authorities. -- (anon Corrales, NM) Politician Mike Huckabee swooped into Kentucky to curry favor with Christians, holding Kim Davis' hand as she emerged from jail as another presidential hopeful Ted Cruz

Damon Wayans on Cosby, audience sensitivity, legacy
"O, Utopia. Why must your sweet governance always turn so quickly from the Edenic to the Stalinist?" From the Power 105 Breakfast Club radio show - In a freewheeling conversation, Damon Wayans reflects on his famous family, classic comedy sketches that would face PC opposition today, SNL discomfort, In Living Color, Kevin Hart, harnessing talent, and more. A little news popped when Wayans said Bill Cosby is being taken down by a "money hustle" and that some of his accusers are "unrapeable." Wayans took heat for using the word unrapeable and referring to some of them as bitches. He refused to budge. No way any of this comedy would fly on today's thought-policed college campuses.

Public servants on strike; God still working as a misleading cause celebre
Sarah Palin is not on strike but perhaps on hiatus. Her cordial relationship with Donald Trump generates speculation that she could find a spot in his cabinet. And that sends media wags into overdrive hoping to demean her at any turn. To wit: Yahoo news plucked a phrase taken out of context and headlined it as an example of Palin's idiocy. Watch the video and decide if Yahoo is hammering a knat.

Kentucky Kim has gone prime time
History has taught (some of) us that mixing religion and state does not work. "The sooner Kentuckians learn that lesson, the better." - columnist Tom Eblen in the Lexington Herald Leader As resistance to gay marriage roils Kentuckians, here is more historical wisdom from Courier-Journal columnist Joe Gerth and political perspective from Al Cross For once, the spotlight isn't on a Kim named Kardashian. Err...Kentucky offers the world Kim Davis, the Rowan County clerk who refuses to issue marriage licenses to LGBT in spite of the Supreme Court ruling allowing for gay marriage. Now she's in jail. Kim doesn't understand American history as Thomas Jefferson wrote of the wall of separation of church and state. Now that licenses are being offered in
Bill Murray – close to an American treasure
From a 70s National Lampoon comedy album, Christopher Guest as "Mr. Roberts" interviewing a mumbling bass player, played by Bill Murray, who subsists on tins of tuna and fast food. Wimpy, wampy, wombly...hell, you're easily amused. Murray is the king of sarcasm, feigning praise for others in the most endearing way ever.
