Huckabee nails the ‘settled law’ argument against Kim Davis

Huckabee was on ABC This Week to talk about Kim Davis and the arguments made by phony conservatives and others that she should obey ‘settled law’, and he nails it, especially the way in which he ended it:

Huckabee was also on Fox and Friends this morning discussing his rally scheduled for Tuesday:

POLITICO – Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee wants to send a message with a rally scheduled for Tuesday outside the jail where Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis is being held after refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
“The purpose of it is to show support for Kim and also to let the world know that it is unacceptable to put a person in jail without bail because she followed her conscience. And not only that, but she followed the only law that is in front of her,” the former Arkansas governor said in an interview Monday on “Fox & Friends,” remarking that the Supreme Court could not prescribe specific implementations of its decision earlier this summer to permit same-sex marriage nationwide.

The irony of the situation, Huckabee added, is that Davis is a Democrat and was jailed by a Republican judge. That judge, David Bunning, the son of former Kentucky senator and baseball Hall of Famer Jim Bunning, was appointed to the bench by President George W. Bush in 2002.

Warning again against “judicial tyranny,” Huckabee concluded that the issue is not just religious liberty but also whether the branches of government should be allowed to overextend their constitutional reach.
