"To black out foreign sites, Santorum would likely need legislative action requiring Internet service providers to use “a mandatory filter set up by the government or by the service providers"

If I had ANY inclination whatsoever to support Mullah Santorum before, this was certainly the last straw. Yeah, let's have the government block access to sites it doesn't like! That always works out SO well! They'll promise you they'll only block kiddie porn, and next thing you know, they pull the plug on Free Republic.

A Santorum presidency would be as big a threat to our constitutional liberties as a second Obama term. Gingrich and Paul are obviously the only two candidates left that are possible to support at this point, but I'm hoping (as I'm sure many others are) that come convention time, we can get someone else entirely.

“Yeah, let’s have the government block access to sites it doesn’t like! That always works out SO well! They’ll promise you they’ll only block kiddie porn, and next thing you know, they pull the plug on Free Republic.”

Such a valid point! Much of the runaway government we have was built on the foundation of nanny state intervention!

It’s a slippery slope!
