South Carolina trips over its own feet trying to stave off marriage equality

While I am not a big fan of boxing, the position of South Carolina as articulated in its recent court filings regarding marriage equality bring to mind a battered boxer whose flailing attempts to stay in the fight are ultimately counterproductive, to the point he may even trip over his own feet and fall down. Specifically, I am thinking of how Alan Wilson, the attorney general, and his office defending the equality lawsuit in Bradacs v Haley have reached the point where they are taking inconsistent positions in different courts in their last ditch attempt to garner votes and gain a few more weeks of inequality, apparently welcomed by the majority of South Carolina voters.
