  • Ann Barnett flouts the intent of the law as far as she can. She represents the bigotry and predjudice of the hick people over there. Gay marriage and holding hands--get used to it.

  • Kudos to Ann Barnet. I would tell all gays to take their filthy agenda somewhere else.

  • Now, the rest of the world knows why Bakersfield is known as the armpit of Calif! I relocated here in 2001 from Los Angeles, and with a few exceptions, you have never before seen a more pathetic bunch of uneducated, racist, inbred, ignorant, uninformed, hateful hillbillies than the (white) residents of Kern. All claiming to be more "Christian" than the next! But don't worry, they're harmless... parents by 12 and illiterate till death!

  • Ann Barnett is a CUNT. How dare her do this. How dare her play God.

    She's a liar. She's made the public believe that she's ceased to perform marriages of any kind due to the lack of resources in the office. BULL SHIT.

    The bitch is "religious", and therefore has denied the Gay Community their rights.

    Ann, you've made Bakersfield look worse then what it is. Your homophobic, Ann, and now everyone knows it.

  • 3 branches of the government. All who discount the court's decisions do not support the constitution--neither of that of CA, nor of the USA. All officials who say that they do not support the judges' decisions of the supreme court of CA decision, should be forced out of office for not living up to their oath.

  • Has anybody started a petition asking Barnett to resign? Are there any other elected officials who are supporting Barnett's decision to cancel marriage besides Fuller, Barnett, Mettler, and Ashburn?

  • Good for you Ann!

  • Well done Paul! When will these people ever learn?

  • Can you say, "Recall?" A public official should be required to perform their duties.
