She gets to be a martyr for ...She's a hero now. She gets to be a martyr for Christ and a hero of the Christian right. You don't think she's eating that up? Where would she ever get this much attention?<br /><br />As Jeff points out, that can be very lucrative, too. Of course, she's likely to lose her cushy $80,000 a year job. But this isn't going to keep her from getting work - not in the South, certainly.<br /><br />And she could easily cash-in on her name recognition and devout fan base. She may or may not have the personality to <i>really</i> cash-in. But I don't see how any of this will hurt her.<br /><br />She was nothing, and now she's a hero. Now, everyone knows her name. And she's a hero to her god, too. She's <i>important</i>. You don't think she's thrilled by that?<br /><br />You might be right, but... well,, we'll see, I guess. (Or maybe not. Once this stops being news, you and I will probably never hear about her again, however it turns out.)<br />Bill Garthrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08552459555883204060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379287241318002122.post-71419640461108037102015-09-04T08:04:01.171-05:002015-09-04T08:04:01.171-05:00I feel sorry for that woman.

If she's been married four times and only recently become religious then she's probably a person struggling to keep it together. And she's not smart enough to recognize that her ridiculous beliefs are hurting other people. I expect all this limelight will probably shatter her.Jim Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09953679196185650753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379287241318002122.post-15432519813445495932015-09-04T08:00:54.217-05:002015-09-04T08:00:54.217-05:00The downside of this is she gets to do what Christ...The downside of this is she gets to do what Christian conservatives do best: play the victim (as Stephen King pointed out in Twitter).<br /><br />As Dan Savage pointed out, Davis is also going to dive into what I call "The Great American Cash-Grab."<br /><br />http://www.queerty.com/kim-davis-will-soon-be-a-martyr-rolling-in-cash-predicts-dan-savage-20150903<br /><br />jeff725https://www.blogger.com/profile/10997352384565837304noreply@blogger.com
