North Carolina actually passed a law that allows magistrates and clerks with religious objections to same-sex marriage to opt out of issuing licenses.

This should and ought to be an easy fix for Kentucky that accommodates both gay couples and individual religious employees.

As long as the law provides for someone else to step in when a clerk opts out,that would easily pass constitutional muster. But Kentucky hasn't passed such a law.
