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.

“We don’t have a choice."

Yes, you do, Governor. You ignore, nullify or defy law that is NOT Constitutional, not moral, and not God's law. You swore an oath to do precisely that.

If it wasn’t “settled law” when the Defense of Marriage Act was signed into law,or when thirty one states voted to uphold real marriage,or when the Supreme Court UPHELD anti sodomy laws,why is THIS decision “settled law”?

If today's spineless group of Republicans was around during Dred Scott, they'd be issuing statements like "While I personally still believe that men shouldn't own other men, I respect the court's decision on this matter and I will abide by slave property equality in my state. This issue is now settled. I've instructed my Attorney General to begin rounding up all escaped negro property"

Jindal is gone, not a serious Pub—Rhino. Get lost Bobby, go have your last lunch with Jebbie, the doughnut boy, wannabe Huckabe—doughnut boy number two, the queen from South Carolina, hair queen Trump, the phony from Ohio, and all the rest of these idiots with no spine.

“we don’t have a choice.”

Yes you do, Bobby. There is always a choice.

It looks like you’ve made yours.

All it will take is one state to simply refuse to obey. Their house of cards will tumble. They depend on obedience based on threats. But they are hollow, like any bully.
