Dub Post after reading further.


If Obama does actually keep his word and veto the bill, he will gain a lot of support in the next election.

he fucking better, thats the one thing good about the american government, too many checks and not enough balances so you guys never get anything done. If he doesn't veto the bill then I dont know what I will do. Anyone know exactly how this will effect canadians? also this is super fucking sneaky be the government, just sneak in a SOPA 2.0 when no ones paying attention.

" The Obama administration has already strongly opposed CISPA and threatened to veto it, so it's not likely that this particular version of the bill will pass."

Obama also threatened to veto NDAA and then signed it last minute just like he did with the Patriot Act

American politics are so fucked up

This doesn't come as a surprise to me. The House is majority republican. I'm definitely nervous for the Senate even though it's majority democratic. If it makes it through the Senate we better hope it stops at President Obama's desk.

Oh come on people. Quit complaining. This is our democratic government in action. We're all Americans and we all have votes. We voted for these people and as such should respect their decisions. The government acts on the will of the people, so we chose this didn't we? Doesn't the government act in the interest of the people? Or perhaps the government is good, but the current politicians aren't. Perhaps we need good politicians in office. I mean, of course it takes corporate sponsorship to get there, but I'm sure a good person can make it into office on the backs of corporations and/or unions and then tell them no once they're in office. Anyway, I'd just like to say I support our government, right or wrong, because if it wasn't for them we wouldn't have roads, we'd be speaking German, society would break down into warring tribes, etc.

Not at all. They are just a bunch of old people on capital hill. They don't know any thing about the internet. They never grew up with it, and never understood how big of an impact it has played. They are completely oblivious to what they are doing except trying to keep the profits for the companies.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. He did the same posturing with NDAA. No one in the Executive or Legislative branches give a shit about our personal liberties anymore. This country is increasingly becoming a police state.
