My Comments: I did not want to post this because I am staunchly against Mike Huckabee and always have been for many reasons. However, Pastor Austin Miles is a personal friend and wanted this to get out to as many as possible so they could pray for Kim Davis. Huckabee keeps pushing the rotten FAIRTAX, which many people think will be a great boon to our economy, but in fact will result in a 30% (not 23% national sales tax) national sales tax.
As well, Huckabee wants a Constitutional Convention with the FairTax. He says it’s to get rid of the 16th amendment (income taxes), but why would anyone want a Con-con to get rid of an amendment? We got rid of the 18th amendment (prohibition of alcoholic beverages) by approving the 21st amendment (which repealed the 18th). In our socialist/communist society today, messing with the Constitution in any way is pure stupidity. We need to enforce it, not change it.
In 2008, the Huckster was proclaiming ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION is our chance to atone for slavery……Then weeks later, I got a request from him in the mail for a donation TO FIGHT illegal immigration !!! Mike Huckabee actually arranged for a Mexican Consulate to locate in Little Rock, with the State of Arkansas paying for many of their expenses, and arranged to lease office space to them for $1 a year.
“This whole scheme to get a Mexican consulate to locate in Little Rock appears to be nothing more than a veiled invitation for illegal immigrants to come to Arkansas to work for the Arkansas corporations who want cheap labor.” “The package is enhanced by social welfare benefits provided by the state of Arkansas and financing assistance to support the Mexican consulate’s presence in the state,” attorney Chip Sexton said. In actuality, Huckabee made Arkansas a sanctuary state while he was governor.
Huckabee has “destroyed the conservative movement” in Arkansas, and left the Republican Party a shambles. Yet some of the same evangelicals who sold us on George W. Bush as a ‘compassionate conservative’ are now trying to sell us on Mike Huckabee.” Don’t be fooled!
The only reason Huckabee in going to see Kim Davis is that it is a great photo op and press for his presidential candidacy. The only person he cares about is Mike Huckabee.
Donald Trump was right. The Supreme Court issued a new national law that sodomites could marry. It is the law. So why didn’t Kim Davis allow others under her to issue the licenses…surely some of them wouldn’t have had a problem with it. I actually give more credit to the two women in TN who quit their jobs so they didn’t have to issue these licenses, than I do to Kim Davis. I know that God’s law supersedes these immoral laws of men, but I also know there are other ways to avoid doing something that is against your Christian faith.
The Supreme court is ruled by those who hate Christians, and guess what? The Republicans in the Senate approved the nominations of Obama’s justices, Sotomeyer and Kagan. And let’s not leave out Kennedy, Ginsburg, and Breyer. The first amendment states: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. One would think it is spelled out clearly that Kim Davis didn’t sign on for doing this in her job, and she is being deprived of her religious rights, according to the first amendment of the Bill of Rights. Surely someone else in that office can issue the marriage licenses to same same sex couples. I would quit that job before I’d recant what I believe, and sit in jail forever.
Now to the Pastor’s article….and forgive my long comments.
ASHLAND, Kentucky (9/4/15)-Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee is the ONLY politician to put everything on hold to assist a Kentucky County Clerk who has been wrongfully jailed specifically for her Christian Beliefs.
Obama, a product of electile dysfunction, would certainly not be bothered to step in, nor any others in D.C., including the woman’s fellow democrats. The only ones Obama will assist is anyone connected to LGBTQ.
Indeed, Mr. Huckabee made a personal phone call to her, to offer his prayers and support. He will personally visit her in jail this coming Tuesday, September the 8th.
Kim Davis is the court clerk for Rowan County in Kentucky. Her crime? She refused to issue marriage licenses to two same sex couples, which would conflict with her deeply held Christian beliefs. This resulted with dozens of same sex couples storming the clerk’s office yelling and screaming at her, disrupting the business of the day conducted by that office.
The two homosexual couples then rushed to nearby Morehead to file a complaint with U.S. District Judge David Bunning who was more than eager to haul Mrs. Davis to court and charge her with derelict of duty, or more accurately put, for being a Christian.
She stood firm, not giving in to compromising her beliefs. She was threatened with a year in jail but still stood firm. Then yesterday, September 3rd, marshals seized her, took her into custody and threw her in jail. What is worse, Judge Bunning stated that he will keep her in jail until she recants and agrees to issue marriage licenses to “gays.” And that is where she is today, in a jail cell.
This is an outrage that cannot nor WILL not be tolerated. This means one can be thrown in jail and remain there until you agree to do anything sodomites tell you to do. To force one to work for you is ‘servitude,’ which supposedly went out when slavery was ended.
And what on earth is with the American people? They appear to be hypnotized. Then again, people with low esteem will hop on the band wagon to “protect” gays, or anyone else to prove what good people they are.
It was astonishing to see Jimmy Fallon in his opening monologue mention that Kentucky now allows same sex marriage, which brought cheers from the audience. It was not just gays that cheered, but everyone else. With the help of the media, it just seems that this is the thing to do.
The Communist Liberal Press has added fuel to the fire by stating that Mrs. Davis had taken an oath to fulfill the duties of the office she was elected to serve.
NEWS FLASH! When she took that oath, the office served traditional marriage couples which, for centuries, have consisted of one man and one woman. She served her office faithfully.
HOWEVER: All those duties changed drastically when the Supreme Court voted, against the will of the people and the constitution, that sodomite “marriages” could take place, because, they belched, that is their Constitutional right. (?)
Yes, Mrs. Davis swore to carry out the duties that were in place when she was elected, but those duties were absolutely not the same duties she agreed to uphold. That is a breach of contract. What is worse, she would have to affix her signature on that bogus and immoral marriage license indicating that she was endorsing it.
In a letter he sent out to supporters, Mr. Huckabee stated: “I am proud of Kim for standing strong for her beliefs. I am headed to Kentucky on Tuesday (September 8, 2026) to stand with Kim Davis. We must end this criminalization of Christianity!”
And here is his note about a petition now being signed that he will present to Kentucky officials. He needs 25,000 signatures to stop this madness.
| “I stand with Kim Davis and every American of faith under attack by Washington elites who have nothing but disdain for us, our faith and the Constitution. If you stand with us, please sign my petition in support of religious liberty here:”
http://www.mikehuckabee.com/index.cfm?p=defend-religious-liberty With gratitude, Mike Huckabee |
So please, sign this petition. Then, perhaps you will be stirred to join Mr. Huckabee in Kentucky on Tuesday to show strength against what is being forced upon us, which will only be stopped when we push back. That moment is here. This can be our Lexington (Mass) shot heard around the world.

My comments are intended for Rev. Austin Myles, not the author of this blog.
Rev. Myles,
It’s common for people to re-write events to favor their arguments. Fortunately in this case, we have video and documents to debunk your views:
1.) There were no “dozens of same sex couples storming the clerk’s office yelling and screaming at her, disrupting the business of the day conducted by that office”. This never happened. There were groups of protesters for and against OUTSIDE the office, where peaceful assembly is allowed. Some of them got pretty loud. Inside the office, 2-3 same sex couples asked for the forms. Ms. Davis was more impolite in vocal tone refusing their request than they were in asking. SHE then retreated to her private office, closing the door, disrupting business.
2.) Judge Bunning was not “more than eager” to haul Mrs. Davis to court and charge her with derelict of duty”. (How can one be MORE than eager? Either they are eager, or they aren’t.) She wasn’t “hauled” anywhere. she was given a subpoena by a process server, and she appeared before the court voluntarily. She was not charged with “derelict(ion) of duty”, which by the way is a military charge, not a civilian one. Bunning had previously granted her a stay during appeals for her refusal to comply with a direct court order to issue the licenses. Mrs. Davis lost on appeals when both her regional District Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court of the US refused to hear her case. The charge she was finally jailed under is contempt of court, nothing else. County Clerks do not have the legal authority to challenge the validity of a direct court order, nor of judging the validity of laws. They aren’t lawyers. Their entire function is to provide and process forms. If she has moral objection to performing that function, as she promised by oath, her only honorable option is to resign the position. She refused a direct court order, refused to resign AND obstructed deputy clerks from complying with the court order. Though Judge Bunning was well within his rights to charge her with obstruction of justice, he didn’t. But it was necessary to imprison Mrs. Davis to allow the 5 (of 6) deputy clerks who were willing to comply with the court order, to issue the requested licenses.
3.) There is no record of Mrs. Davis being threatened with “a year in jail”. There’s no specific period stated to the contempt of court charge at all. In fact, Judge Bunning said he would have accepted her assurance that she would not obstruct deputy clerks from acting. But she refused to give that assurance. He did NOT demand that she “recant”, merely that she desist from not allowing others in the office to comply.
4.) Mrs. Davis was never “seized” nor “thrown” in jail. She went peacefully as directed, and no jail employees have treated her with anything but respect. They’ve been interviewed, and are proud that they treat prisoners well.
No one is forcing Kim Davis to do anything but stop blocking others from complying with a legal order of her own local court.
Pastor, if you can’t follow and report the facts, stick to what you know.

Gentle Reader,
You accuse me of “re-writing things to favor my arguments.” I have examined numerous news clips, videos and news reports. In them one can clearly see that yes, dozens of same sex couples invaded the Clerk’s office. It would take more than two “couples” to absolutely jam pack that office the way it was clearly shown that caused ti to shut down for the day.
This was not written to promote Mike Huckabee’s presidential run. Indeed there will be no voting in 2016. Obama plans to cancel that and all further elections to declare himself president (dictator) for life.
Judger Banning WAS eager to have her put in jail. He is the same judge that ordered school kids who objected to the homosexual accommodations to go to “sensitivity’ classes. Yes, re-education classes that are so common in communist countries.
When someone is ordered to go with troopers, with a gun strapped on their belts, who would not go otherwise, that is a seizure. You have gone through a lot of time and trouble to try your best to comb out misinformation by supplying misinformation to accomplish it. It did not work
Seeing that you are so sensitive to “accuracy” then you might start at the beginning and spell my name correctly. It is MILES NOT Myles.

I apologize Rev. Miles, for incorrectly spelling your name. I know a Rev. Myles, and was confused by that personal association. If you really think President Obama is planning to declare himself dictator, and that there will be no voting in 2016, and that I said anything about Mike Huckabee at all, I would recommend a course of psychotherapy. You appear to be suffering from delusions. In the meantime, I will pray for God to grant you clarity of mind.
