I think you have a point! I wish the Silicon Valley tech companies quickly
put up a KISS( Keep_It_Stupid_Simple) website showing  *all* polticians how
they risk losing re-election and will erase their future dreams of EVER
occupying the White House if they pass SOPA/PIPA themselves. Unless they
have unold riches to buy big media's national TV and Radio advertising
space - which cost quite some fortune. Simply put, passing the bills is
shooting themsleves in the foot and means kissing goodbye to their future
political prospects. Now wouldn't that be terribe or what? ;-)
