Just earlier I read that it simply got shelved. Since it's out, we are definitely making progress. Now we can focus on the lesser of two evils.
Reid is rushing the vote while many senators are saying they're backing off. Basically, he's being a typical old fart. Check out the PIPA thread I just made.
Veto is Obama's word for "I'm going to say i won't sign or support it, but when they bring it to me and ask me to sign it i will sign it despite what i said earlier" because he "threatened" to veto the NDAA bill, but he didn't think twice when it came to signing it.
As i remember it, the NDAA was passed signed and ratified. and SOPA was probably the distraction. because people today are mostly fucking idiots they would care more about SOPA stopping their shit tube asswhoring and their pirating of music movies and games than a bill that nullifies the bill of rights.
