Big brother type political's in the US are scared shitless about the internet they do not like the idea of not being able to control the internet/ free press/media/new's - like they do with their mainstream media / news lap dog's.
Fox News and Drudge are enemies of the state because they have a different point of veiw. It irritiates the administration to no end that they don't kow tow- so they are not news organizations.
What does that make main stream media/news CBS- et all that do kow tow?
About giving B.O. power to take over control of the internet in the interest of security- I don't buy it, I don't think that the intent is to inhance security, just like I don't think banning self defense weapons is done in the interest of safety or that it stops crime. It's a power grab by big mommy-- that's it. Something like the "great information firewall of China" in America is what they are after. The other thing they are after is the ability to tax and monitor internet commerce.
