Called my congressmen earlier today. One supports it, one does not. The staffer from the non-supporting member didn't know how to respond to "So which is more important to the senator, protecting IP rights or the first amendment right to free speech?"

Bennet? I was shocked when I saw "supports PIPA". I voted for and sported a Bennet sign when he was running, which I don't have to tell you, made me less popular in this town. His office will be getting a call from Gate 7 tomorrow. :mad:

Hey Stoney, according to Bennet's office he has dropped his support. FTW?
Saw that. CO coming in hot. The number of older people I have spoken with who were aware of the legislation all wrote letters, called or emailed against the bills. It was a surprisingly non-partisan issue; people actually saw the transparency on the issue.
