Kim Davis, the Kentucky country clerk who was jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, is embroiled in yet another media firestorm following revelations that reports about her private meeting with Pope Francis during his recent visit to the U.S. may have been grossly misrepresented by her and the legal group representing her, Liberty Counsel. But the controversy should come as no surprise to those familiar with Liberty Counsel, which has a reputation for lying in order to elevate its profile and further demonize LGBT people.
Florida-based Liberty Counsel was founded in 1989 by its now-chairman, Mat Staver. For years, the organization has distinguished itself as one of the anti-gay right's most extreme and blundering legal groups, taking on doomed efforts to defend harmful "ex-gay" therapy and slow the inevitable advance of marriage equality.
Before it began representing Davis, Liberty Counsel was perhaps most notorious for representing Lisa Miller. After ending a same-sex relationship with her partner, Miller took their daughter and moved to another state, defying a court order and refusing to allow her former partner to see the child. Liberty Counsel rallied to Miller's defense, creating a public relations nightmare for itself when Miller subsequently kidnapped the child and fled the country.
In addition to Davis, the group is also defending Scott Lively, an American evangelist facing charges of "crimes against humanity" for his involvement in promoting Uganda's extreme anti-LGBT law, which threatens gay Ugandans with life in prison.when you have a bad cause the vermin will come out of the walls in the the daylight to hitch to what they think to be a catapult for their agenda noteworthy first to do so republicans Huckabee and Cruz though Huckabee Beaugarded his way in and kept Cruz off the mike showed his real intent if they were for support of a belief why silence a voice that supports that??? you do it to put yourself in the spotlight.
was Kim the bigot a willing pawn in an agenda she wasn't aware of, which given her convictions makes no difference it just made her a prime target to promote right wing discrimination. let's say she lied about Pope encounter she had to be instructed by council and the uncle sugar to do so doesn't speak well of them shyster and charlatan.
