Flashback: Obama gave away the internet and, with it, our liberty


In 1992, when Bill Clinton was running for president, if you asked the average American, “What is the Internet? What is the World Wide Web? And, what is Email?” most Americans would not have known.

It is hard to believe in less than a quarter century, the internet has transformed the world. It has created wealth for many. It has changed the way America does business. It has given birth to political movement and killed political careers. The Internet is without a doubt the greatest tool for advancing freedom since the invention of the printing press.

It is no great shock that President Obama does not like American control of the internet. The internet was an American invention and America shared it with the world. American values of freedom and liberty created the Internet and allowed it to flourish. Now, in one of his last acts, Obama wants to destroy the Internet.

No, this is not one of those crazy internet conspiracy theories.

Despite the explicit wishes of Congress, Mr. Obama wants to allow an international body to take control of the Internet...

  1. Then why not pass a law to nullify that law? Rescind everything it does, specifically, line by line if need be.

  3. Bammy didn't own the internet so giving away controls to foreign power is treason. Laws repugnant to the original meaning of our constitution by our representatives can be ignored. If they want to pretend to care we can pretend to listen.
