Y'all keep up your brain partisan bickering while your nation and your liberty is taken from you an ever larger piece at a time.

The rest of the story is talking about how little is known about the bill, because it's not out of committee and nobody outside that committee has any clue what it actually says.


So...


Story cool, bro.

No it doesn't. It draws on and cites numerous sources painting a picture of what various interests are on board with this. But hey, color me unsurprised that leftists and big government neocons are rushing to deflect.

I give this thread high marks. At first I was like, cool, the government is going to enslave the internets. Then I read Aerli's post, and I have to say I was drawn to his side by random general insults and prejudices. I am really confused now. The only thing that could sway me completely to oppose this bil is BT or Des posting a youtube link about Ron Paul that has nothing to do with the topic but I wouldn't click on anyway.

So the rest of the story demonstrates that little is known about the bill?


This is like, almost news about something that hasn't quite happened yet, but could turn out to be bad. Or not. Maybe.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw Harry Reid pass this at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Thank you, Simone.
