Informed of the White House's veto threat, the bill's sponsor described it as "flabbergasting."

"I do not believe the administration knows how to work with a legislative body," Rep. Rogers said. "We have come a long way on some of their points."

FUCK. YOU. I mean, fuck you for coming up with this shit legislation to begin with, but then to suggest that Obama isn't playing nice because he threatened to veto something that is an appalling attack on privacy? FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU.

As someone who lived in the basement when they were 14, I would also like to serve up a healthy fuck you.

Come on Republicans. Small government means you stop making these huge ass bills that interfere with people's rights. You can understand that Re: gun control, but completely forget it re: women's health, the internet, and religion.

If any sufficient freedom exists for long enough, the odds of attempted repression of that freedom approaches one.

Corollary: The speed of repression is directly proportional to the power of the freedom.
