188.2 - Footnote: Florida has dead-enders

Footnote: Florida has dead-enders

There is a Footnote to that: While Jeb Bush waved a rhetorical white flag about the coming of same-sex marriage to Florida, others were not so ready to face reality. So much so that a couple of days before his stay was to expire, Judge Hinkle found it necessary to specify that his order covered the whole state, not just the country where the case arose.

And in what can only be considered an act of childish petulance, at least three Florida counties have put an end to the practice of getting married at the courthouse so the clerks there won't have to worry about getting cooties by performing same-sex weddings.
