He is 'opposite guy'. Everything he actually does, is the opposite of everything he says. How anyone can believe a word he says is a mystery to me. He is a liar to his core.
But, for him and the people who support him, lying works. If they ever told the truth about what their real goals are, they would be kicked out on their ass, and they know this.
He says that gay marriage is 'up to the States'. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is saying time and time again that they do not recognize the sovereignty of States and they do not recognize elections or the will of the people.
The Federal government under Obama, feels free to 'dictate by fiat' what States can and cannot do regarding gay marriage, immigration, or anything else, regardless of any State legislation in place. It is very much as if State governments no longer exist in any meaningful way. The States can make any law they want, but the Fed will simply nullify it if they don't agree with it. So why make any State law at all in this environment?
And if the States' government have been nullified, if the Federal government has become that powerful, you can be sure the so called 'will of the people' is nonexistent. I believe America is evolving into and will become an autocratic dictatorship ruled by a permanent oligarchy of mutual friends in the next few decades. We are almost there already. They may keep the illusion of citizens (and others) being able to vote for this or that, but the final outcome will be predetermined by the politburo of the USSA.
My children are already are growing up in a country which is socially unrecognizable in terms of the way I was raised. They will work and live in a society much more restrictive and controlling than I could have ever imagined possible.
I am sad to see it go, but at the same time, I am grateful to have been born in an era when I was able to experience what America once was.
