The results have been tabulated, and Marco Rubio beat out a determined field to claim the prize of stupidest response to Indiana’s “right to discriminate” fiasco. Here is the blue ribbon quote:
“No one here is saying that it should be legal to deny someone service at a restaurant or at a hotel because of their sexual orientation. I think that’s a consensus view in America.”
“The flip side of it is, though, should a photographer be punished for refusing to do a wedding that their faith teaches them is not one that is valid in the eyes of God? … What about the religious liberties of Americans who do not want to feel compelled by law to provide a catering service or a photography service to a same-sex marriage that their faith teaches is wrong?”
Basically, it should be illegal to discriminate unless you are a photographer or caterer.
