Republicans on Breitbarf site think Trump's plan to wall off the internet is a fantastic idea

So much for "Don't tread on me", "1776 will commence", "we need a less intrusive government" and "we need a smaller government"










http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/15/heres-why-trump-is-right-about-shutting-down-parts-of-the-internet/



This may be why the GOP may be trying to throw the election, if a republican gets elected they can't continue to sell guns, tee shirts, bumper stickers to these mindless idiots who are only capable of spewing talking points they heard on a right wing radio station.

Al Franken had a radio show at the time and he would make serious fun out of that definition. I used to laugh myself silly...after laughing myself silly during Stephanie Miller's show...her stuff was even better than Al's.

knew we were stuck for 4 more years of W. I was at the depth of depression over the political situation. Steph and her mooks, Franken, Ed Schultz and others just smoothed over our hurt and pain.

Trump wants to run the country like the Chinese!

BTW, the idiot Network guy who blocked non-North Amerian IP traffic at the router just made his company more susceptible to DDOS attacks from outside the country due to the processing requirements to drop all traffic. If he worked for me and did that without proper change management, he'd be fired on the spot.

How it has come to this? How is it that in less than a year we have regressed so much? Even if this disgusting man doesn't become president he is setting the groundwork for other scumbags, and probably even worse individuals. We shouldn't live in a society where people openly argue that racism should be the norm. Where the opinions of the ignorant have more value than that of the scientist.
