I think Mercer and Mike Curtis are on to something.
Obama and his fascination with Shiva the destroyer the Hindu god.
Obama does go to India on the day of the implementation of the national biometric ID system
Obama comes back and does some political theater.
A supposed compromise with angry remarks that he knows his party will reject therefore inflaming political warfare
The news media gobbles it up and spews it out not realizing what is really going on.
What do you suppose is the real outcome wanted?
