Why Do You Think Bill Clinton Wants To Regulate Speech On The Internet?
Clinton is not happy with what he claims is the “misinformation” on the Internet and he wants the force of government to stop it all. Politico is reporting that Clinton makes the proposal in an upcoming CNBC interview saying, “It would be a legitimate thing to do.”
How it is even possible to have an “independent federal agency,” is anyone’s guess. After all, the second such an agency came into being it would be controlled by the political body of Congress or a presidential administration. There is no way such an agency could ever be “independent.” In fact, even the appearance of impropriety is enough to discredit such an effort.But isn’t that the rub? Whose “facts” will be presented? Will those facts be administered under the thumb of a fact-master like Clinton, Mr. “I did not have sex with that woman, Monica,” himself?
This whole idea, however, is quite normal for liberals. Their fascist desire to shut people down, to use the mechanism of government to quash ideas liberals are not fond of, is a core belief motivating liberal thinking. What do you think about having the right to makes comments, like these on Y Answers being regulated and changed?
Because I can Josh. The internet is nor regulated by the government yet.
Sorry Jay, I thought there was a link on that page.

I think it's not only our right, but our responsibility, to make sure no voices are silenced and all voices have a right to be heard. Freedom of speech should not be taken lightly.

on condition that he has a real trial on the 21 federal indictments that brought about his impeachment. needless to say, if that have been to take place, we could could wait an prolonged time for him to serve out his penitentiary time in the previous he might desire to anticipate the workplace of President. the rustic grow to be in a ROYAL MESS while Bush took over and has yet to totally get better. I have not have been given any prefer to return to the undesirable circumstances.

If Politico is reporting it, then why don't you or bigjournalism.com actually have a link to it?
I did the search myself: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0511/54951.ht...
In any case, I think that such a thing would be totally impractical.

I'm not sure why he wants to do it, but if they want to do this for "misinformation" purposes then they need to start by looking at themselves. Our government lies to us 24/7. Rather than worry about what's on the internet, they need to start telling us the truth! For example, rather than lie by saying they are doing something because they care about their people, they should translate that message to "we do this because we want your money!" They'd gain a lot more respect from me if they were just honest.
