I love it when the Republicans say "The American people told us that they want..." even though the polls directly contradict their claims. It's funny because it's a largely conservative christian group, and growing up defensively Christian, there is a similar Christian fallback argument when you're totally out of your depth. That argument is "God says" or "God told me" or "I have a personal relationship with the Almighty and he says that we should..."
Same basic idea. Invoke Invisible Voice of the Important Other. Strangely enough, that Important Other totally backs you up.

For some reason, the Invisible Voice never backs me up. What am I doing wrong?
