6. you got it EXACTLY right, as did the OP, and you used EXACTLY the

2. Thanks for keeping this in the public eye

I'm worried that the net will be lost and no one will care as long as they can get their porn.

4. Do you have that much faith in a Dem Congress to do the right thing?

I haven't! A look at the votes in committee on this issue show us we have nothing at all to be sanguine about. Campaign contributions and all. If memory serves me correctly, didn't our own Sheila Jackson Lee let us down on this matter? At least coming out of committee?

I'm really very scared of this bill. Corpo-cash & all...

5. I'll take my chances

Our Texas Republicans, with the sole possible exception of Ron Paul, seem ready to sell the Internet right down the river.
