DLC Wasserman-Schultz dares liberal democrats to vote against internet data capturing bill
It starts with the name, could you vote against this: Child Pornography Bill

Could you vote against a bill dubbed the Child Pornography Bill.

Consider this:

http://www.npr.org/2011/08/24/139875599/child-pornography-bill-makes-privacy-experts-skittish


<<But would Wasserman Schultz be willing to limit the bill even more — and reserve the IP data only for child porn investigations?

"Um, no, because we think that it's already drawn narrowly enough," she says.>>

1. The bill is pretentious BS and they know it
"Prosecutors hire Fischbach to get the digital evidence in child porn cases, and he can't recall being stymied by deleted IP records. There is usually plenty of damning material already on a suspect's own hard drive."

2. We'll all be labeled terrorists within the next 15 months by these standards.
Terrorists, or kiddie porn, or whatever it takes to control us.
The screw the internet up more each passing year.

3. They want to spy on you
Wasserman-Schultz is a fascist. The child p**n thing is just a ruse to gain support, sort of like "when did you stop hitting your wife."

These are the Democrats, right?

21. There are reasons why I am registered as un-affiliated.
As for Wasserman-Schultz, let her be redistricted out of her district. I couldn't cry about that.

5. Can I just ask why when people are moving out of her district in droves because they can't find work
why waste a single minute on any other issue at all?

7. Explain to me again why so many around here
admire this woman. I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would.

And I'd vote against it in the proverbial NY minute.

9. She gives good face on the TV.
She goes on Maddow or Stephie and spouts semi-progressive slams against the RW. That is enough for the "words, not deeds" fans.

13. Remember her support for Republican seeking re-election in Florida
Will she use a Democrat's vote against the "Child Porn" bill to help more of her Republican friends?

14. Yup...and the irony that such a vociferous supporter of Hillary is now head of the DNC...
...and responsible for helping re-elect the guy she was working against in 2008 is so thick it could choke you...

This is nothing more than a fascistic over-reach that is using a howitzer to kill a mosquito...

19. If they were honest maybe...but labels are just labels....consider this:
“In Debbie Wasserman Schultz, we have one of my greatest friends in the House and one of the fiercest defenders of the progressive values that I hold near and dear to my heart. She will now be in a role where she can bring to bear that ferocity, an unmatched sense of dedication and a superlative work ethic, to help remind Americans of the importance of progressive lawmakers who are committed to moving our nation forward."

http://cummings.house.gov/2011/04/cummings-congratulates-debbie-wasserman-schultz.shtml


Big Sugar must laugh when they hear such remarks.

But when a bill titled "Child Porn Prevention Act" is labeled to deflect the truth, the Progressive label can just as easily be turned on its head.

12. I've heard about this. It's such bullshit.
Setting aside the violations of the constitution and the rights to privacy, it won't even accomplish its stated goal. Sure it will help you arrest people who look at those sites(though I'd argue they need to be sent to a hospital and not a prison), it won't help you catch the people who run the sites, the ones who without a doubt deserve to rot in prison, and I'm normally forgiving when it comes to crime. Of course, this is all just an excuse to expand he police state that is growing.
