South Carolina's Attorney General Alan Wilson, who in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision earlier this month requested that the state Supreme Court stop judges from issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, now insists that his opposition to marriage equality taking effect in South Carolina has only to do with his interest in seeing the "rule of law" win out. From the Rock Hill Herald Online:
What I do know is this: I'm the state's attorney and the state is my client. And my job is to represent the state's interest in every venue that exists until there are no more venues to represent the state. I'm not opposed to anything I'm only for the rule of law.
