Am I the only one who does not believe ANYTHING obammy or his regime says?
However, this sort of talk is making a lot of people madder—and hopefully, they will replace a lot of congresscritters in the upcoming election, thereby neutering a lot of their power.

the bill puts limits on the powers the president already has to cause "the closing of any facility or stations for wire communication" in a time of war As if Obama cares about limits on power defined in the law or in the US Constitution.
He has already shown that he will ignore the Constitutional limits on Presidential powers, break any law and do what he wants, when he wants.
And the rumpswabbers in congress are only too happy to follow their tyrannical half-black messiah down the road to despotism, and Soviet style socialism.

Is this the bill that will allow them to “black box” all internet connections or is that tied to the FCC regulation changes? I am getting confused with this massive onslaught of government.

Imagine if this had been tried while Bush and Cheney were in office. Every wacko leftist from 12 years old to 104 would be screaming their collective heads off.

Hard to keep track of which critical Constitutional guarantees have been decimated from day to day these days, isn’t it?
To: BenLurkin
Elections have consequences. Yep. Elect leftists and their useful idiots and this is what you get.

When you’ve got the ACLU and conservative bloggers saying the same thing about a bill DC should freeze over.

Senator Joe Lieberman and other bill sponsors have refuted the charges that the Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act gives the president an Internet "kill switch." Instead, the bill puts limits on the powers the president already has to cause "the closing of any facility or stations for wire communication" in a time of war, as described in the Communications Act of 1934, they said in a breakdown of the bill published on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee website.
I'm sure it will be used against CAIR and the many other Islamofascist orgs. /sarc
