"I’m at a loss to know why there isn’t some agency, or other branch of government that is charged with supporting and upholding the U.S. Constitution."

There is. It's 1) the Congress, but the rats control the senate so it's lost it's effectiveness. It's 2) the Judiciary, however, we do have some bad judges and it's up to Congress to impeach them.

Finally 3) there's the people who can change the guard in the executive or the congress through free elections. What they don't seem to be able to do, is effectively nominate someone through the two party process that truly represents our values.

I do think though that there should be an office of constitutional rights under the Congress, that investigates abuses by the executive, and recommends policy changes to the executive and legislative changes to Congress.

Plenty of people here would be fine with this if they knew a Republican would be in the white house. look at all the jack boot lickers who supported the PATRIOT act.

Too bad we don’t have an opposition party to the police state bi-partisan agreement. It’s down right dangerous.

They did it last year in Egypt. IIRC about 95% of access was disabled

This isn't Egypt. The Internet is too ingrained, too highly utilized in all areas for a “shut-down” to be reasonable.

Like I said before, I could be wrong, but it will end his presidency at the moment.

Well, you just got put on to a list ... probably not the only one you’re on, of course, but we just can’t have average backwoods engineers spouting off terroristic threats like that, so there you are.

Naturally, though, you couldn’t do any shooting yourself because all of your guns fell into that lake that one time, right? Similar story to mine - its amazing how common that kind of accident is.

Seriously, this is very disturbing - and not the least because this particular POTUS has taken it upon himself to issue EOs on subjects that don’t have legitimate underlying legislation. Unconstitutional as Hell, but Congress is AWOL and the courts can’t do anything unless a case is filed (and even then, they seem to be about as effective as tits on a boar hog).

In the scenario I proposed (shutting down DNS services), commerce might be able to continue as many companies probably directly use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses which would probably still work in a DNS shutdown. But the average consumer who types in www.whateversite.com would not get through, and email would probably be disrupted.

Well BO has to get that order out there in time for his martial law/coup takeover in Oct. Or maybe he will wait until after the election and then decide he just can’t bear to leave office.

I was responding to your comment that the internet has no on/off switch, apparently it does. I'm sure HUSSEIN has already figured out a way to pull the plug just like they did in Egypt, a few calls threats to internet providers - problem solved.

Vivek Kundra - Information Czar

This would be the front man, other than Uncle Janet, for the cyber-takeover.

I asked myself the same question.For the most part,members of Congress don’t give a damn as long as they get their perks. The parasites, a/k/a obama voters do not have the intelligence to be concerned. That just leaves us. So, again, when will enough be enough?
