HARRY REID: ARCHITECT OF THE POLICE STATE

"Reid is pushing to have the Department of Homeland Security be granted broad regulatory authority over the Internet."

Harry Reid: Architect of the police state


If you were to name one person who is doing more to destroy liberty in this nation and totally repeal the Bill of Rights, you would be hard pressed to name someone other than Harry Reid.
What is he doing now?

Upset that his plan to destroy dissenting opinion on the Internet failed with SOPA and PIPA, he is now trying another angle.

If Internet Piracy will not convince people to give up their rights, there is the old standby of cyber security.

Reid, at the behest of the Obama Regime, is pushing to have the Department of Homeland Security be granted broad regulatory authority over the Internet.

Why are the Democrats so obsessed with controlling the Internet? This is yet another try after the Stop Online Piracy Act and Prevent Internet Piracy Act blew up on them.
But why are they so obsessed with controlling the Internet?
It is simple: liberals do not like personal freedom. Oh, they want freedom of speech for their ideas and their causes, but not for anyone else’s.

Just look at what liberals do when someone disagrees with them. If someone disagrees with a liberal, they must be silenced. Just look at the demands to silence Fox News, back when Fox News was conservative. Liberals went after Pat Buchanan on MSNBC, forcing him off of that network because of his opinions. Ditto for Beck.
Why debate opinions when you can just silence them?
This is the great problem of liberalism today. It wants total conformity. More than that, liberalism wants total power.

The problem liberals have is most people in America do not like their ideas. Who wants to break the greatest health care system in the world and replace it with one that has been an abject failure everywhere it has been tried? No one in their right mind, except a liberal.

The problem with imposing a bad idea like socialist health care on America is that there are people who point out the fact that socialist health care sucks. Liberals do not like people pointing out the inconvenient truths, like their plans and programs do not work.

That is why in socialist nations, one of the first things the socialist leadership does is abolish a free press. Imposing your really bad ideas is much easier when there is no one pointing how bad the ideas are.

Does anyone really trust the Obama Regime or for that matter any other government with the power to control the Internet?

Our founding fathers included freedom of speech and freedom of the press in the First Amendment to the bill of rights for one very good reason. They knew it was the greatest counter to tyranny. As powerful as the Second Amendment is, the First Amendment is even more powerful and important.
Harry Reid and the Democrats hate the First Amendment and would love to see government given the power to regulate speech. Like petty tyrants everywhere, they do not take criticism well.

Harry Reid and the Democrats are going to push this Cyber security bill later this year. This will be another fight like SOPA and PIPA. This is another bill we must fight and defeat. Unfortunately for us, defending freedom is a constant and ongoing battle. One that we must win.
Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety
