And you're positive that Pres. Obama is doing it all by himself? Like he doesn't have other issues that are 100X's more important. Who really gives a fart anyway...people use it freely (illegally) every day all day long.

Yes, that is exactly what Obama wants...in order to keep fueling pipelines to The Industrial Prison Complex.
