Senators Decry Link Between Egypt, 'Kill Switch' Bill

Politicians are upset over comparisons with what is happening in Egypt and the "kill switch" bill they are pushing. Gee, I wonder why.

"Some have suggested that our legislation would empower the president to deny U.S. citizens access to the Internet," said the statement from Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.), Susan Collins (R-Maine), and Senator Tom Carper, (D-Del.). "Nothing could be further from the truth." Lieberman, an independent who caucuses with Democrats, is chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
