Kim Davis’ lawyer is a pathological liar and an attention whore. He’s not doing her any favors, but in point of fact, I think what he is doing has always been more about himself that Davis. She’s too dumb to know she’s being used. Reminds me a little bit of that movie Citizen Ruth.

Kim Davis: Sought favor from the Pope and then tears him and the Vatican down. What does one call a person who does such a thing?

Of course, the Vatican is lying and Davis and lawyers are the truth tellers. Seriously? calling them liars?

Yup, his take is a better-informed version of what I assumed after seeing Dionne on that O’Donnell show: some conservative Vatican insider got her in, telling the Pope only (at most) that she was conscientiously objecting to being compelled to violate her faith (in some unspecified way) on her (unspecified) job. His speculation about the report’s timing, with the clear result of drowning out all Francis spoke of on his visit, rings creepily true.
(FWIW, I suspect the Pope also didn’t know exactly what the Little Sisters of the Poor are refusing to do – sign a paper saying they won’t do something! – and may in fact have been, in his mind if not the minds of those who arranged it, meeting with them about their actual good works among the poor.)

“…including a selfie of Davis and her husband, Joe, in the statement by way of proof.” PROOF?! Hell, that selfie could have been taken anywhere. Now a selfie WITH the actual Pope, that may be something that is called proof.
And being recognized at LaGuardia, Philly, and Reagan? Um, who’s paying for all this KY county clerk’s travel and will she be declaring this as a gift on her income taxes? Please, just go away.

When is this sorry ass bitch going to jail for a good long stint??? She is so humungous that would need beef up the cell.
If the pope says he doesn’t support Kim Davis, he’s lying! Liar, liar, pope’s nose on fire, says the Kim Davis camp.

The Infallible One fucked up, and the Vatican is now trying to walk it back.
Folks, remember how after Chubby Checker came out with Do The Twist, for the rest of his days as a celebrity pop singer, he just never could get away from that song and the short-lived stupid so-called “dance” move it was named for? … now -
It’s New - NEW - NEW ! from Derp-Tel Enterprises, makers of None o’ that Funny Bidness Hillibilly Pizza, straight off her tour of the Rowan County Prisoner Incarceratin Facility! The all new Greatest Hits compilation from America’s very own hillbilly hearthrob and visual turkey tap, Celebrity County Clerk Kim Davis. You’ll swoon on hearing her dulcet tones, fronting the guit-box stylings of Special Guest Artist Governor Mike Huckabee, in her classic Ah’m Big In Peru, and you’ll never be able to let go of the urge to clutch beads on hearing her follow-up hit, Ah’m Big With The Pope, featuring Matt Staver and his Blue Hills Money Makers. Our operatives are standing by …
I love that! Where did you get it?
Thanks for the tip.

Frankly, unless the Pope is nominated/appointed by the President to replace US District Court Judge Bunning, it really doesn’t matter whether or not he supports Ms. Davis. If she keeps playing fast & loose with federal court orders, she’ll be diddling her rosaries in prison.

Some guy in Philly was selling “the faithful” use of his Pope cutout for selfies at 5 bucks a pop. He was on the local news. Claimed business was brisk.

Just by coincidence I’m sure, The papal nuncio (Ambassador) to the U.S. arranged the meeting, BUT, there’s much more to the story:
The man is a real player within the institutional church. He first came to prominence as a whistleblower during one of the several investigations of the Vatican Bank, which may be what got him exiled to this godless Republic in the first place. Despite that fact, Vigano is well-known to be a Ratzinger loyalist and he always has been a cultural conservative, particularly on the issue of marriage equality. In April, in a move that was unprecedented, Vigano got involved with an anti-marriage equality march in Washington sponsored by the National Association For Marriage. (And, mirabile dictu, as we say around Castel Gandolfo at happy hour, one of the speakers at this rally was Mat Staver, who happens now to be Kim Davis’s lawyer.) In short, Vigano, a Ratzinger loyalist, who has been conspicuous and publicly involved in the same cause as Kim Davis and her legal team, arranges a meeting with Davis that the legal team uses to its great public advantage. Once again paraphrasing New Orleans lawyer Lamar Parmentel from The Big Easy, the Vatican is a marvelous environment for coincidence.
