Pretty much evidence that they don't read and comprehend. The law was proposed by Joe Lieberman, a usually conservative Democrat. Much as I dislike Obama, I don't think he had anything to do with this. Another bill like this was proposed and knocked down quickly as I suspect this one will be also. |

You could argue that any reasonable service provider would voluntarily take such action once contacted. However, doing so would potentially open them to all sorts of legal liability from ****ed off customers, especially if it later turned out that the attack wasn't real and the administration starts back-pedalling on what they actually asked the ISP to do. If the president orders them to do it, then you have assurance that not only will they comply, but they will be relieved of liability. And what kind of illegitimate stunt using this law do you think a president could pull without being impeached? |

Democratic voters defeated him in the primary in 2006. He considers himself a Republican on foreign policy and defense. He calls himself a Democrat because that's how he's registered as a voter. I agree with Joe on this one. Some say the US should keep Mexican trucks off US highways because of safety violations. Shouldn't the US keep the British off the US internet because most of them seem to have nothing better to do than launch trolling attacks? (see above) |

When the Irish nuns at the Catholic Parochial Gulag gave all the kids "Kennedy for President" bumper stickers, me, not knowing any better stuck one on the bumper of Dad's 1951 Dodge. My father was an MP sergeant during WWII and I do believe he got royalties from the military for curse words he invented. When my father discovered the bumper sticker, he yelled all of those strange words at me. I had no idea what he was saying, I just knew he was very angry. Mom was a New York Democrat and of course I always got opposing views. I wonder if that's why I don't much care for either party? TDD |

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. And who thinks that Obama is a "liberal"? Sheesh.

Especially any group of citizens who opposed them. I hope I have some change left when our first and last Affirmative Action President finishes his one and only term. I shudder at the thought of how long it's going to take to repair the damage those Democrat morons have done to my country. TDD What's this "my" country crap? It's all of ours. You can't take ownership for yourself. You can say it's MY country too. I explained it like this to a Liberal wacko nut job once. You see that flag hanging from the flagpole at the library? That's OUR American flag, it's public property. If you tear down that flag and burn it, you're burning MY flag. If you want to burn a flag as a demonstration of your right to political free speech ,you better go out and buy your own flag. It's the same way with OUR country, when you tear it down, you're tearing down MY country. Is that easy enough for you to grok? TDD |

Let's say that a terrorist like the recent Times Square bomber is captured and during interrogation, discloses a plan by other terrorists to create a massive cyber attack on the US internet system tomorrow. Searching his computers backs up his claim, but all that can be determined is that they are planning on using internet service provider X to do it. Would you not want the president to be able to tell provider X to temporarily suspend it's service until measures could be taken to prevent the attack from working? You could argue that any reasonable service provider would voluntarily take such action once contacted. However, doing so would potentially open them to all sorts of legal liability from ****ed off customers, especially if it later turned out that the attack wasn't real and the administration starts back-pedalling on what they actually asked the ISP to do. If the president orders them to do it, then you have assurance that not only will they comply, but they will be relieved of liability. And what kind of illegitimate stunt using this law do you think a president could pull without being impeached? OH!

That's Joe Lieberman, the least popular senator, with an approval rating of 25%. *Democratic voters defeated him in the primary in 2006. *He considers himself a Republican on foreign policy and defense. *He calls himself a Democrat because that's how he's registered as a voter. I agree with Joe on this one. *Some say the US should keep Mexican trucks off US highways because of safety violations. *Shouldn't the US keep the British off the US internet because most of them seem to have nothing better to do than launch trolling attacks? *(see above) We invented the internet therefore it belongs to us......... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Berners-Lee My trolls are interesting.

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.
