King Obama CYA

Our new King has managed another CYA. Through the passage of the Cybersecurity Act in March, His Majesty has set himself up to be able to shut down the internet in America, in response to anything that HE considers a threat to "national security."

If I were King Obama, I would consider a "viral marketing" campaign to impeach the President a threat to "national security." In case you are wondering about viral marketing, it consists of people passing emails to their mailing lists.

The potential for such a campaign is that every person in the US (and likely the world) could receive an email within six forwards. It would likely take more than this (as most people, like myself, don't forward stuff), but it still means that within a couple of weeks, every person in the US with an email address could receive an email message detailing what King Obama has done and calling for an impeachment.

Please read the Cybersecurity Act. There are a lot of pieces that don't apply, but do realize there is far more than a billion dollars in your tax money committed over the next few years to giving the President the power to shut down the internet in the United States in response to anything King Obama considers a threat to National Security.

This is a PDF document. http://commerce.senate.gov/public/?a=Files.Serve&File_id=29daa3d9-291e-46ce-aba9-f2348f4c0d0d It is the text of the Cybersecurity Act as passed in March.

Please pay attention particularly to pages 30 and 31. Buried in the exact middle of this document is the trigger that King Obama can use to shut down the internet.

Also page 41-42 states that the President (as delegated) is required to only REPORT regarding civil liberty guarantees, not do anything to actually guarantee them.
