Governing Against the Will of the People

Last week I mentioned how the perception advanced by the media is that most Americans support the unraveling of marriage (because the media supports this).  In their minds, the U.S. Supreme Court simply settled it on the majority opinion side.  I told you of a new Associated Press poll finding more Americans opposing the court ruling than supporting it.  That poll also found nearly 60 percent of the U.S. is concerned about the potential loss of religious freedom because of the homosexual political agenda.

A few days after that AP poll, the Washington Post revealed that in their poll they asked voters if they approved of the direction America is headed on social issues.  Sixty-three percent said “NO.” They disapproved of this cultural march toward liberalism.    Now polls from Reuters and Gallup have also found a drop in support for same-sex marriage of several points since April, just as did the AP poll.
