Top Senate Republican wants Web bill shelved

Top Senate Republican wants Web bill shelved: Back in the 1930’s Congress created the FCC. Ostensibly this was with the intention of contending with issues of spectrum scarcity and guaranteeing that the communication infrastructure best served the interest of “the people”. From this inauspicious beginning was born an agency that has since been used to censor opinion, control the dissemination of information and place a muzzle on much of what did not agree with the contemporary DNC sanctioned truth. And now some in government want sweeping new powers to control the Internet. So good luck Senator Mitch McConnell. We need to put this bitch down.

  • haha wow took the dumbass republicans long enough to realize that this bill was the first step to dictatorship. Republicans are dangerous!!

    • The first step? Sadder yet are the dumbasses who actually think that the loss of liberty in this country comes from any one political party. It comes from a progressive ideology and your handle says more about your minimal brain power and lack of awareness of what is going than anything I could say. Either that or you are just being ironic.

      • Let's talk about the hypocrisy of this website. I thought IHTM's mission is to expose media bias when this very article is bias itself. Isn't it a bit misleading to say "top senate republican wants web bill shelved". There are many democrats who opposed the bill in the first place yet I don't anyone here giving them praise.

        Let's not forget that this bill was introduced by a republican yet there wasn't a news article about sopa until about a week ago. Hmmm interesting.

        Also why aren't articles like these included? http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2012/01/20/407580/kentucky-gov-cuts-education-funding-while-preserving-tax-breaks-for-biblically-themed-amusement-park/?mobile=nc

        There is no mention of these type of articles on this website. Obviously this website is bias towards republicans and yet you have the audacity to question my brain power. Ha.

        • "Also why aren’t articles like these included?"

          because they obviously no little about apples to apples comparisons, suggesting that the economic surveyors of the park are less scientific than the people that propose a higher growth-rate for the K12 system.

        • Go ahead on there, dickweed. Talk about whatever you please. We'll see to it your drivel is rapidly hidden from view in an effort to keep the streets of IHTM free of the rotting carrion you leave in your wake. Don't think we don't appreciate your feeble attempts to impress us with your complete lack of understanding that we are here to laugh at the liberal pukes. We get it from a few regulars and it has become a bit of a sporting event for us. Post on, dookie!

          • I love seeing immature people post who participate in all shit talking without even addressing the topics at hand. Thanks for ignoring what I wrote. Now I know that you're a coward. To be extremely frank I am not at all surprise.

          • You will do well to learn that the posters here do not give a flying flip about what you think of them or about what you think of anything else for that matter. Most of us are here to laugh and poke some fun at the expense of the current political landscape. If you can't handle that then move on to some other web site. No one here is going to bow to your wishes as to how you want us to engage in conversation or how you want this site to be formated and designed.

          • Translation of drb's response: "wah wah wah I'm a little baby because I can think of a response to your comment so I will just call this site a satire and pretend our comments are real".

            Really now are you curious as to while many americans are ditching the republican party? Fools like you are not helping their cause at all.

          • I think it was talkin' bout the number of muslims and "arab-americans" leaving the GOP back in 2006.

            imo, no big whoop.

          • Can it be real?!?! Another commie translator offering her free service just happens to show up the night before the obloviation obomination returns and we are supposed to believe it is a coincidence? Worthless progressive fecal heads. Bag off!

          • And here to refresh readers about the maturity you exhibited in your introductory post, rife with derogatory BS:

            I am not here to debate. I am here to laugh. Read the header panel. This is a satirical site for non-liberals. Tread here for as much abuse as you can handle, frank not at all surprise. You'll have a great time here convincing yourself of the vast superiority you possess in that turd holder sticking out of your collar.

          • "this is a satirical site"

            How often do you use this default when you know that you are wrong? Nice one there, pussy,

            I hope you enjoy Obama walking into his second term this upcoming election. I have the last laugh. Remember that.

  • Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God.
    I am so unbelievably and irrevocably torn.
    On the one hand I want to be loyal to my Occupy Everything vibe that stands against this sort of anti-nerd legislation.
    On the other hand, my celebrity mentors... dear, sweet celebrities... and the Motion Picture Association... seem to favor this.
    How can I be cool if both camps disagree?
    I find it impossible to think for myself on this one.
