I was listening to a talk show this morning and they were talking about the major complaint with gay marraige was that under current law if one state made it legal all other states would have to honor it. The host was saying that this was because of some parts of the constitution and would be the same way Driver's license's have to be honored. If this is true why don't our handgun permits have to be honored ?
I am not an attorney

However, I believe the talk show host was incorrect (was it Gill or G man, both are noted for being incorrect many times).
I have never seen anything in the Constitution that stated other states have to recognize licenses from another state. A few examples are: NY back in the 60's did not recognize a driver's license from any state, if the driver was under 17. Today, many states will not recognize a marriage license issued by another state if the person is under a certain age, or if they are related such as cousins. There are exclusions in some state laws for licenses.
That and Doctors and Attorneys licenses are not accepted in all other states, and this goes for some other professional people.
As far as the Talk Show host, again if it is you know who, then take what Gill has to say with a very large grain of salt. If it was G. Gordon, a larger piece of salt might be required. I used to listed to both of these guys until they drove me completely nuts. I believe in most of the same things they believe in; however, I like to hear both sides so I can form my own opinion, and both condemn those with other sides of the story.

I was listening to Glenn Beck
www.glennbeck.com
I don't know who Gill is and I thought G. Gordon had been off the air for years.
Glenn Beck comes on here in Memphis from 8-11am and is great in my opinion.

You asked, "Why don't all the states HAVE TO HONOR our permits?"
My answer would be: The states of Hawaii, New Jersey, Illinois, Missouri, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Kansas, California, and the City of Washington DC will NOT ALLOW their own citizens to carry. Why would they allow you and me?

That was the hosts point on gay marraige. He kept saying if Mass. passes it then Utah has to honor it. There was no way Utah was going to pass something like that but they would be stuck with it anyway.
