I think it was Stalin who said that it doesn't matter who votes. What matters is who counts the votes. In the internet world, the content doesn't matter. It's who controls the routers. It's pretty damn easy to shut it down.

Well, I know that. The problem is that, I don't believe that the USA would want to be seen as just another censor like China, because that is what the world would see.

Unfortunately there are too many people just like that who would love to see this country under censor/rules and we see them trying to get control of everything and they are called Democrats.

All the blather about worrying about what the "world" thinks of the United States is just RAT propaganda aimed at Bush. All they really want is control. The opinion of the rest of the world be damned. Besides, if they achieve that level of control, the press will be controlled as well. The "world" will only hear what they want heard.
