Starved of Consensus, SOPA and PIPA to Get US President's Veto

[SteelSix]

In communism they give you poison. In a democracy you choose your poison.

Damn where's my bumper sticker machine..

 

[Kantastic]

i do hope so, well all end up way worse off if nobody stops this capitalist shenanigins

In true capitalism, this would never happen; blame the government.

 

[Arctucas]

Typical B.O.; you can always count on his position on anything depending on the popular consensus.

We (the American people) need a leader who will stand up for what is true, proper, and correct, regardless of what Hollywood or Wall Street tells him to think.

 

[DannibusX]

Yeah, he's going to tell you that he's going to veto the bills as he signs them into law.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

A friend of mine showed me this:

 

[trickson]

Oh yeah. Don't forget he said he wouldn't renew the tax breaks AND would repeal the Patriot Act.

Not only did he renew the tax breaks but he ENHANCED the Patriot Act AND signed the NDAA.

Yeah Obama is a two faced piece of SHIT ! I will not be voting for him ! NOBAMA 2012 !

 

[Platibus]

Again big companies are mad at the amount of theft online.

Since when is not earning as much millions or billions as you used to, a valid reason to "get mad" and start fucking up the world to your liking? The worst part is that the people who are pushing this, are the ones who don't take any part on the creative aspects of what is being "stolen" from them, the ones whose only sense of self-worth is the number they see on their bank accounts. I'd hate to see what'll happen next when this gets approved.

We the people have picked these people generation after generation. We deserve what we get.

the pirates are indicative of the people themselves. a sign of the times. a cycle of pain. i like it

 

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

be the first good thing obama has done since entering office!

You mean besides killing Osama Bin Laden?

 

[HossHuge]

btarunr, I wish to thank you for a very well written article that doesn't tell us what to think and just gives us the information. You my friend, are a fine journalist.

 

[KainXS]

Obama on SOPA

Obama: Sopa isn't strong enough
a month later
Obama: Sopa is too much
after hollywood withdraws from giving him donations

Depends on which "communism" and which "democracy" you are talking about.

For one this is America . We have a constitution and bill of rights , This is just not going to fly here ! When we get Onama out and get Ron Paul in things will make a turn in the right direction for once since Regan was in office !

 

[Munki]

You mean besides killing Osama Bin Laden?

He didn't kill anyone, our military did. I doubt he even knows how to use any of the weapons used in the Osama Bin Laden killing. Then the piece of shit has the nerve to get on television and say HE killed Bin Laden.


and yes he is two-faced, like all politicians.

 

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

Well no shit he personally didnt kill anyone but he gave the go ahead for our military to do something about Bin Laden. So in a some degree he is responsible for the killing of Bin Laden.

 

[qubit]

Indeed, the responsibility is equally shared, because they worked as a team to achieve this goal. Mind you, not that I think Obama did anything wrong here.

Same thing if a prisoner on trial for murder is put to death by a court. Everyone involved, from the judge, to the jury, to the executioner is equally responsible.

Oh no, I've gone off topic. Just ignore me.

 

[Super XP]

Suck Off and never come Back...

 

[Munki]

Well no shit he didn't kill him, the point is all he did was give the okay. Hell, how hard is it to inform someone they are allowed to do something? It's not. Just because he is the "president" he gets credit for the take down of Bin Laden? That's kinda like saying "Because I work at McDonalds I am the reason they are so popular."

Eh thats a crappy comparison.. obama said yes.. the military had to come up with a plan and risk their lives to get him, the intel agencies had to spend years tracking him and following leads.. all obama did was say go.

But siding with the majority or not, I approve of this veto... Bigger picture it shows his flaws as a president, but for now I approve.

Just heard a pro-SOPA/PIPA ad on CNN paid for by "Creative America Campaign, Inc." and sponsored by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Here's a bad screenshot of the end of it:

Members running this ad are no surprise (multi-billion dollar media corps): AFTRA, CBS Corporation, the DGA, IATSE International, NBC Universal, SAG, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc., Twentieth Century Fox, Viacom, the Walt Disney Company and Warner Bros. Entertainment.

Pure propaganda BS. I had no idea they were directly trying to brainwash the general population into supporting it.

 

[KainXS]

i guess they don't know when to give up as always

 

[FordGT90Concept]

They aren't giving up and yes, they have a crapload of money so you bet your butt this is just the beginning of the ad campaign supporting censorship.

We can only hope.

If you want to go that route then bush didn't get saddam out of power and bush wasn't responsible for starting this whole retarded war and he's not responsible for for the recession. Bush also didn't have to do anything about hurricane kitrina.
