    Just like the marriage license deniers. These people are hostile to the roles they’ve been put in. Get em out of there.

      If I just flat out refused to do my job, I would be immediately fired and replaced. Same rules apply here.

        Same rules SHOULD apply here, but absolutely do not.

        When you build the rule of law within your institutions around the honor system, then those without honor will invariably monopolize the system.

    Me: Hey, boss. I’m going to appeal that thing you told me to do.

    Boss: Well, firing you might seem politically partisan, so I guess I’ll have to let it go.
