Unplugging the Internet

Two Democrats and a Republican — or perhaps I should say three "Democrats" in the Senate, have moved the ball further down the court to controlling and shutting down the Internet. What?! That's right. Senate Bill 773, the Cybersecurity Act of 2009 written by Jay Rockefeller, D-W. Va.; Bill Nelson, D-Fla.; and Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, would give the president and the Commerce Department unlimited power to declare an emergency and pull the plug.
