That’s why he turned to 0bama’s playbook and chose to circumvent the legislature and the KY constitution by issuing an illegal executive order.

But have the proper authorities in Kentucky declared it illegal...? Absent that, it makes no difference does it...?

That’s the troubling, sad part. The “proper authorities” are political animals themselves and they look the other way when unconstitutional/unlawful acts occur with which they agree. The same-sex marriage ruling by the supremes and the subsequent executive order of compliance thereof issued to the county clerks by the governor should have been met with defiance by all 120 clerks. Neither the supremes nor the governor can vacate laws simply by declaring them obsolete. Our elected representatives should step in and correct the unlawfulness that is occurring. But I’ll probably just be left with a handful of shoulds.
