And you call her a bitch. Tolerant? Prejudicial? Ignorant? To call someone that name over this one topic? LOL. Starting to sound rather typical for the gay crowd here.

Ethics in the work place is one thing, but refusing to do your job and coming up with some lame excuse is another. Maybe she should flip burgers or something. Then she will realize how good she had it, but it would of course be too damn late. Too bad, so sad.
What's a blunt?

That's kinda "intolerant" to call someone you only know from a story written by someone else a "bitch". Especially for this one subject. That's asshole behavior if I ever seen it.

A newspaper says the move came after the clerk received advice from Kern County lawyers who said marriages cannot be performed in a discriminatory fashion.
The Bakersfield Californian says Clerk Ann Barnett said Wednesday she would not have the staff or space to deal with an increase in licenses and ceremonies. She plans to stop all ceremonies starting June 13 - three days before gay couples may legally wed.
The newspaper reports she asked county counsel to file a brief with the California Supreme Court opposing implementation of its May 15 ruling allowing gay marriage.


The county should figure out what percentage of her job relates to performing marriage ceremonies, and then deduct that percentage from her salary.


Bother not the cat. For they are sneaky and will piss on thy keyboard.

The woman is the Kern County Auditor-Controller-County Clerk, an elected position. She cannot be fired. She actually tried to resign as County Clerk but keep her position as Auditor-Controller. Apparently, she couldn't.

She is not required by law to perform marriages, so she would only be violating the law if she refused to perform same-sex marriages but continued to perform other marriages.

This is an interesting response to the County Clerk's action:

Local same sex marriage advocate Whitney Weddell isn’t overly concerned that Barnett’s office won’t offer civil ceremonies. “Who really wants to be married by a hater?” she quipped. What the gay, lesbian and transgender community has always wanted, she said, is the marriage license. Weddell said she actually respects Barnett’s attempt to step down as county clerk. “I respect her attempt to abide by the tenets of her faith,” she said.

I don't agree with Weddell's use of the word "hater" for someone that she later contends is "attempting to abide by the tenets of her faith."

There is nothing wrong with acknowledging that the "tenets of her faith" are hateful.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

Bigotry is a social disease.

You dont know this women from Eve. Just cause someone is against homosexual marrage as dictated by there faith, doesnt mean they hate anyone. Im against homosexuality in general (no I dont think there should be legislation about it) but I dont hate homosexuals at all. In fact I feel deeply for there feelings and wish I knew how to bring to them truth, with love. Thats why I hardly post in this section, outta respect.
