| Anonymous Coward User ID: 24183289  United States04/27/2013 02:04 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to inthecapital.streetwise.co] Quoting: LostCauseZ06 A large reason for the failure of CISPA to make it to a floor vote on the Senate was the threat of a veto by President Obama if the bill reached his desk. While the President should be keeping the issue of national security at the forefront of his mind, it's refreshing to think that in his second term Barack Obama is still focusing on the rights of the people. With legislation involving the internet having far more support among Republicans than Democrats I would not be surprised if the House waited a few more years before reattempting this legislation in the hopes that the odds will be more in their favor. Of course at the same time all it would take is one major cyber attack for the tides to turn in support of an online Big Brother. Huh? :blobama: |

MindShaft  User ID: 38483855 United States04/27/2013 03:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Cool... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30446635 Give it a few weeks. They will find a way to sneak it through. A few weeks or a few months. It will get passed in one form or another. When enough senators have amended the bill to include their favorite pork barrel projects as payback to those who made all of their fat campaign contributions, it will pass the senate. If Obamacare can pass, so will CISPA in one shape or another - wait and see. It sucks, - but that's the way it works on Capitol Hill.

Huh? is this person out of their drug haze yet? ^^ this Obama, and his progressive movement, rely heavily on the internet -- and sharing of information. Information that would likely scare the crap out of the average American -- and information that likely violates the rights of many Americans. The law, as it was written, put those communications at risk - because it shared just about everything. That is why OBAMA wanted Corporations to screen the data before they sent it on to 'other organizations' or 'government entities' -- because he did not want information for his groups shared. Just like Obamacare... it applies to everyone, except Unions and other groups that support him. Have a nice day = GFY. GFY = Go Fuck Yourself. If this offends you then have a nice day. |

WOW..... as if giving my employer my facebook password is not already TOOO far.... this makes me sick. ya know, the worst part about all this that i realized, right now the MSM is a joke, and the only way i hear about 99% of my news is on the internet and GLP.

Specifically i posted that link in complete disbelief that a news agency thinks sheep are truly blind enough to allow something like this to be SPUN into a positive issue for obama. we are all fully aware what his motives and plans are. |
