text: Choosing attention-grabbing guests is one of the rituals of the State of the Union, and the Family Research Council has nabbed a good one: Kim Davis. The Kentucky county clerk who became famous—and a martyr in the eyes of the far right for refusing to do her job and issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples—will be in the audience for President Obama’s final State of the Union.
  
  Davis and her lawyer, Mathew Staver, will be guests of an unnamed member of Congress:
  
  Staver said Davis did not want to share who invited her to attend because "it's not about the member, per se, as it is about what the member wanted to represent."
  
  Yeah … but we’re still going to find out eventually, and that member of Congress will get some right-wing brownie points.
  
  Davis won’t be the only State of the Union guest relating to the marriage equality fight: Jim Obergefell, whose name was on the Supreme Court case legalizing equality nationwide, will be there as a guest of First Lady Michelle Obama.
