Not a good idea with this bunch. They seem to have a penchant for proclaiming anything they don’t like a crisis. Health care crisis, global warming crisis, etc. None of these is really a crisis, but it is all about seizing power.
I fear as soon as Obama loses popularity, they will “discover” a threat to vital information systems and say they need to shut down internet dissent.
Where now is the Jackass Party which was all incensed that Bush was spying on conversations that crossed a national border?
Not only that — but during a real crisis, you WANT news to spread. I recall trying to reach foxnews.com, cnn.com, abcnews.com, ... anything....during 9/11.
