I thought Obama was supposed to be a "liberal"/

Any ****ing idiot with two brain cells to rub together can figure out
that this is all about Joe Lieberman, and not at all about Obama. Hell,
the title of the article is "Obama to be *given* the right to shut down
the internet", not "Obama asks for the right ...".

And anyone with any sense, regardless of how they identify themselves
politically, should agree that this (the idea of a "kill switch" for the
internet) is a very very bad idea that flies in the face of any idea of
freedom, liberty, democracy, etc., etc.

So, if a president has information obtained from multiple captured
terrorists and other sources that appears highly likely to be valid
and it indicates that a massive internet attack against the US is
going to be launched tonight using internet service provider X, you
don't want the president to have the authority to temporarily shut
down that ISP?




And who thinks that Obama is a "liberal"? Sheesh. Just shows how
absolutely tilted to the right the world has become.

I'd say it shows how deranged you are. But keep thinking that way.
The more dissatisfaction with Obama the better. That justs puts us
closer to blocking him from doing any more damage and being rid of him
in 2 1/2 years.
