Jeb Bush, a likely Republican presidential candidate, called for "respect" of same-sex marriages on Monday as his home state of Florida began allowing gays to wed following a court ruling.
Bush, a former governor of Florida, said in a statement that even those like him who oppose same-sex marriage must "respect the rule of law" now that the state's ban on gay marriages has been ruled unconstitutional.
By acknowledging legalized gay marriage in Florida -- though stopping short of outright supporting it -- Bush has struck a more conciliatory tone than many of the other Republicans eyeing presidential runs in 2016.

He is for the Conservative values of strict gun bans, extremely high taxes, unlimited Amnesty for illegal aliens, Government health care, and an EPA who operates with impunity.
He is a great Conservative!
That sums up the Bush governing philosophy in a nutshell. The Dems get a policy enacted, whether legally or illegally, and so we simply have to accept it. We can pretend to be against it but once the Dems get some Dem hack judge to force gay marriage on a state against the will of its citizens, we have to "respect" it as the "rule of law." Go F yourself, Jeb.
I miss the good old days, when sex was private between two individuals. It didn’t become a problem until people made it public and tried to influence other people to “do it their way.” How did we get here? Why is it ok to foist individual beliefs on other people?
The same thing is at issue with everything going on with so-called progressives’ attempts to legislate their beliefs on others with regards gun laws and speech. Where will it end?
If Jeb Bush really has any respect for the rule of law and the constitution, how come he has yet to condemn Emperor Obozo, unconstitutional, illegal amnesty?
Time to cut back on those Bushes.
Hey Jeb, they don’t want our respect, they want tribute.
How can he demand respect of something that is abhorrent to God Almighty? And this from a ‘Christian’ family? Bush is showing just how spineless he really is. If you can’t stand up to a sodomite, good luck with North Korea, Iran, etc.
FoxNews shows results of poll that has Jeb ahead by 23%, so far.
FoxNews is just giddy at that.
Ironically, no one has officially announed a run, yet.

Recall that in 2008, Giuliani was Mr. Inevitable. Maybe Inevitable Bush will find a similar lack of support.
Homos didnt respect our votes against it.
So Bush can go suck a room of them.
If there were no other reasons to oppose Jeb Bush (and there are), this would do it.
I will never cast a vote for this idiot...not under any circumstances.
How to prune your RINO.
Go to hell, Jeb.
I WON’T “respect” deviance ever.

This is “moderatism” at its finest.
Go away Jeb. I will vote for the Democrat before I vote for you.
Ha. Great photo!
Nancy Pelosi fights for what she believes. I loath everything she believes in, but I respect her willingness to fight. I feel the same about many democrats - at least they FIGHT. I wish 10% of the GOP would fight as hard for what they SAY they believe in.
And Jeb, what in the hell is this ‘respect the rule of law’ crap? Does Jeb believe the conservatives are going to go amok and attack homosexuals? Does he foresee riots in the streets, and conservatives burning down beauty parlors?
I would accuse Jeb of being a transsexual, but I know a lot of women who fight much harder than Jeb has ever thought possible.
Thanks. These are rangers removing the horn from a mom rhino so that she won’t be attractive to poachers. Unfortunately, they have found rhinos so treated still killed by poachers. Hopefully this one won’t be.
More “Its the law of the land” bullshit from another RINO milquetoast.
We have a fool in the White House already from the other party.
“Oh for crying out loud...”
He has the “fire in the belly”. LOL
