[chiller]

This issue needs attention. I think JimRob would agree.

[MizSterious]

"Chiller"--would also be a good description for this "proposal." It's a real chiller, alright.

[YOUGOTIT]

They do not read or even look at email. They have an automatic answering service that thanks you for your email. I have found the best way is to go to Congress.org and have letters hand delivered. The cost is low and you can have the same letter delivered to your two senators and to your rep for one price. (This is not an advertisement it is how I handle letters to my elected reps.)

I would think the uproar by MoveOn.org etal would kill this bill.

In case anybody is interested, which I doubt, see who's being interviewed here and when:

[watchdog_writer]

It would be nice of the writer were to post the link for or the specific text of the bill that he complains about.

Perhaps someone will fill in the gap if the writer can't.

I apologize for not being up to date on the status of the bill, but I assume from the post the writer is referring to the campaign finance bill introduced by our friend the good senator from Arizona, Hon. John McCain? Exactly how can the bill regulate the Internet? Who is trying to apply it to the Internet? Where and when did the hearing take place? What was the outcome? Wouldn't it be nice to know?

[NetValue]

Of course democrats want to regulate the internet. There are only two things they believe should not be regulated: homosexuality, and abortion.

[John W]

On its way to Bayh and Lugar.

[Uncle Miltie]

Can you say "unenforceable?"

I knew you could.

[Area51]

Johhny Mc Me doesn't give a shit what you think, He is fine with his Keating 5 connections, money, perks etc. and how dare you question him.

John McCain is an Traitor to his country. Pure and simple. NO one raises his right hand and takes an oath as he did when entering the military to defend this country and then uses his position to squelch these freedoms for HIS OWN PERSONAL GAIN without there being some serious forces pushing him.

I'm marking this so I'll remember to go back and send our senators messages of our own.

[TomGuy]

Hillary said, years ago, that the Internet needed a gatekeeper. [For her future benefit, of course.]

Now, who was she sitting beside in her recent interview from Iraq?

Who wrote this CFR anyway?

[Wanna play connect-the-dots? More and more I am beginning to think Michael Savage might be right--that the fix is already in and 'she' is in line for the next opening in the White House oval office; that the two-party system exists in name only and there are really no real political differences between the two parties.]

[Euro-American Scum]

I'd like to see these liberal pukes enforce this.

[King Prout]

holee HELL.

we all need to get on our reps' butts over this.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

Anybody got a list of real email addresses for the senators? I can't get the email forms to work for either of my senators on two different computers...don't know if their server is being unfriendly or whatever...

[Hank Rearden]

Lots of bowing-and-scraping language in this essay. Screw that.

- Don't call them "honorable"; they don't deserve the appellation.

- Tell them to shove this idea right up their a$$es; we will not obey.

Time to smack political parasites down; enough bowing and scraping!

Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my General Interest ping list!. . .don't be shy.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Unbelievable....

BTTT

[Fredgoblu]

So...these guys propose to regulate everybody's speech EXCEPT ABCCBSNBCCNN?!?!?!

Thomas Jefferson, Letter to James Madison, from Paris, Jan. 30, 1787

"I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.

Unsuccessful rebellions, indeed, generally establish the encroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions as not to discourage them too much.

It is a medicine necessary for the sound health of the government."

Is it time yet?
