Control the Internet? I don’t trust the man to control his wife’s waredrobe, much less anyhing of value or concern to anyone else on the planet.

And think of all the crap the left spewed about GWB over the years. The most ridiculous being: The George Bush weather machine that created Hurricane Katrina so as to destroy black people.

Unbelievable. We all knew this was coming though.

I have no doubt they are going to try this at some point and at that point people are going to have to join together to take drastic steps because it is officially a totalitarian state at that point. And it is bad enough already, but these people are fearing no consequences thus far until the ignorance of the public catches up to what they are in fact doing. Active dissent is needed. Palin is going to be needed with the audience she draws to speak out against what is going on here.

If they do this, look for a lot of servers to be moved offshore. Then the government will try to block certain websites. Then new websites will be created.

My daughter spent time teaching in China during the Schezchaun earthquake. Fortunately, she was nowhere near the quake, but the government tried to censor news of their incompetent handling by blocking certain websites. Friends and relatives got around it and communicated by posting blogs on websites which they hadn't thought to have blocked.

The young people in China are amazingly sophisticated about knowing how to do this, even with U.S. companies such as Google providing the government with the tools such as blocking software to control the information flow.

Should President Obama Control The Internet?

I had trouble getting past the title, with its name for obama. No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President. I have never referred to the thug in our White House by any title higher than "former US Senator", nor will I until I see evidence that the November 2008 election was at least a lawful mistake by easily deluded voters.

As for a socialist tyrant controlling the Internet, I think the First Amendment is perfectly clear: Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press. The liberals really do want a dictator with no limitations on their Dear Leader's power. As much as I loved Reagan and love Palin, I want my president (once we have a legitimate one) to follow the written words of a formal Constitution that places limits on the power government can exercise over our lives.

I know, but it is this arrogant, mealy-mouthed lying pos, who sits in the People’s House who does exactly what the left accused President Bush of doing’

But issues of “legality” don’t seem to matter, at times, with the Obama Administration

The "Masters of our Universe" knows what is best for us proles.

Submit. Obey and take a long ride on your free Unicorn while you follow that rainbow.
