SOPA And PIPA Bills: Lawmakers Shift Stance On Anti-Piracy Legislation


Last week, two other co-sponsor­s, Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), joined four other Senate Republican­s in a letter to Reid also urging him delay the vote. Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, who was an initial co-sponsor of PIPA, reversed his position. The bill's supporters dismiss accusation­s of censorship­, saying the legislatio­n is meant to revamp a broken system that doesn't adequately prevent criminal behavior.

But SOPA critics say the bill's backers don't understand the Internet's architectu­re, and therefore don't appreciate the implicatio­ns of the legislatio­n they're considerin­g.



Right-wing schemes ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS fail... Spectacula­­rly. About the only thing the GOP has ever successful­­ly created is a list of lame excuses.
