America, listen up. Your US Senate is about to pass legislation that will give President Obama "absolute power" to shut off the Internet when he deems it necessary! The bill is called: "Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act of 2010."
Passage of this bill is a DANGEROUS erosion of the 1st Amendment. It gives Obama full control to deny you access to the Internet when HE wants to with the "excuse" of national security. Anyone who does not comply "will be punished."
The government will have the power to force private companies to participate in "information sharing" with the Federal government in order to "monitor" the security status of private sector websites. That means, that they can shut-down all blogs, websites, or ANY OTHER political speech if Obama decides to do so.
The bill was introduced by Senator Joe Liberman (I, CT). He has been trying to pass this type of law for some time. Don't let this happen!
Action to Take
Notify you US Senators to vote "NO" on this attack of YOUR 1st Amendment rights!
