The making of a dictatorship...
Maybe we'll have an "emergency", just before the 2012 elections...

The bill would allow the President to enact emergency measures in the case of a large-scale cyber attack......
and a large scale attack on his agenda?
To: Innovative
What he'll need is a suspension of the Writ of habeas corpus.

so these clowns won’t exempt cases of Gitmo detainees from judicial review, but they’ll gladly hand that out for this? Unbelievable!
To: BenLurkin
Lincoln during the Civil war did just that, as did Wilson during WW I.
Unfortunately that precedent has been set.

The ruling class is terrified of the Internet.
Because of it, they are losing their control.

and a large scale attack on his agenda? You can bet that one or more 3-letter agencies have something waiting in the wings to unleash on China, Iran, or some other unfriendly country in the event of a conflict. It would be continually updated to reflect the latest vulnerabilities, but would be designed to avoid the US.
All it would take is one politically-motivated operative to unleash it WITHIN the US, after a few modifications. Then, the administration would have their digital Reichstag Fire.
The state-controlled media would be the only source of information. And, you know what they would report....

“Kill?” How can they say that? Isn’t that too violent? Vitriolic? Too Palin-like? What if someone shoots someone? Maybe they heard about the “kill” switch and that caused it! If obama has a kill switch, he will make people kill people!
