9. Obama has only vetoed two bills so far.

The White House said that it would recommend that Obama veto CISPA.

However, the bill he gets won't be CISPA exactly. It will be a combination of CISPA and Joe Lieberman's bill, "The Cybersecurity Act of 2012."

I think our best chance of stopping CISPA is to urge our Senators not to pass cyber-security bill this year, as any cyber-security bill they pass will be merged with CISPA.
