Obama just ratified ACTA which will censor and destroy the Internet and so our freedom of speech. This ACTA was done in secret. The media kept it from the public , proof:

As an international treaty, ACTA requires ratification by the Senate and the House. This type of usurpation of power by Obama will eventually be negated.

If that’s true we need to get active. But this article says ACTA is secret and the Senate and House are not involved.
Obama could be breaking the law and should be impeached and this horrible ACTA defeated. But people need to KNOW it exists first and what Obama did. But the media hides this.

Obama Ratifies the ACTA Global Internet Censorship Agreement(W/O Senate)
The Real Agenda ^ | January 26, 2012 | Luis R. Miranda

In another example of how little Barack Obama cares about the United States Constitution and the role of Congress -as bad as it can be- the current U.S. president ratified the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement or ACTA. President Obama had signed the first binding draft of ACTA last October 1, 2011, also in secret.

As we reported yesterday, ACTA is much more dangerous than SOPA, PIPA or OPEN, because it is the accord that legalizes internet censorship on a global basis. That is why presidents around the planet have received an signed the agreement without any review from their congresses or the people.

Call your Congress Critters and send information to Rush, Malkin, etc.

Obama is wrong on this. He must have the advice and consent of Congress....because it’s an international treaty.
