My point being he is against it, but those bills keep getting passed. So either he is a liar or inept, I hope it is just the later. He can based on powers granted to him by the Constitution stop these bills; he just has not shown the balls to do it.
Just like SOPA, there are ways to stop piracy, without nuking the internet. I guess piracy is now the new terrorist. Funny all the news media outlets are spinning the piracy angle, because their bullshit reporting can't compete with the internet.
If I tell everyone I am a God fearing man, but like to cheat on my cancer riddled wife, it gets harder to believe my self proclaimed Godliness.
he was never
for SOPA.. he's taking big hits in Hollywood for being against it..
President Obama could face an anti-SOPA backlash from some of his traditional backers in Hollywood over his administration's stance on the controversial anti-piracy bills that have sparked a massive online protest.
Two senior entertainment executives and Obama donors, who declined to speak on the record, said they would not give the president's reelection effort further financial support because of his opposition to key parts of the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect Intellectual Property Act (PIPA).The two bills have been aggressively supported by the Motion Picture Assn. of America, which is Hollywood's chief lobbying arm, and entertainment industry unions, as a way to combat global Internet piracy. But the two groups have received serious push back from a coalition of top Internet companies that argue the proposed bills are poorly designed and don't have adequate civil liberties protections.

Other executives in the largely Democratic community said that although they are unhappy with Obama's position on the bills, they do not plan to abandon their support.
“I don’t like the fact that Obama is against this,'' said producer Mike Medavoy, a lifelong Democrat and major Obama supporter. "But, this is a single issue and I’m not a single issue voter."http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/entertainmentnewsbuzz/2012/01/obama-could-lose-some-support-in-hollywood-over-sopa.htmlIt's Rupert Murdoch who wants this.. not Obama.
Maybe you should read
this piece by Andrew Sullivan.. because you seem to have a major disillusionment going on.. he really can't walk on water and neither can he do it all. It's up to congress and us to make congress do the things we want done.. Just like the SOPA protest today forced even Rubio to take away his support of the bill.. Obama can't do it all.. he isn't od no matter how much the gOP calls him 'messiah'..
