Louisiana will comply with the Supreme Court’s order legalizing same-sex marriage, Gov. Bobby Jindal said Sunday.

“We don’t have a choice. Our agencies will comply with the court order,” the Republican presidential contender said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” after being asked why his state is the only one that has not yet issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

Appearing from the state capital, Baton Rouge, the governor explained his state is waiting on a 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision to reverse a previous ruling upholding traditional marriage and implement the high court’s ruling.

On Friday, the state’s attorney general’s office issued a statement saying it found nothing in the Supreme Court’s decision that made it a legal requirement for officials to comply immediately.

Another Republican drooler trying to catch a political wind and too stupid to see the mainstream current.

Politico picked up on this because it’s divisive and engendered that reaction we’re seeing posted here. When candidates head over to these MSM mini viewed venues they better be prepared for a curtain closing sand banging.

“We don’t have a choice. Our agencies will comply with the court order”

When the court orders Christians to be rounded up and put in internment camps, will there be a choice?

At some point leaders have to lead and stand up for what is right regardless of consequences. Otherwise these leaders are just part of the problem.

They need to abolish marriage licenses. The state should just get out of the marriage business.

Problem solved for everyone.
