"It's always comforting when a federal court, sitting less than a mile from the building where the Declaration of Independence was signed, once again affirms Americans' constitutional right to free speech – this time over the World Wide Web. That's exactly what a panel of the Third Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals did today in affirming the Judge Lowell A. Reed, Jr.'s opinion that the Child Online Protection Act (COPA) is "impermissibly overbroad and vague."

Its a long article,
Lucy

"Impermissibly overbroad and vauge..." Get used to hearing words of that sort. When/if Obama is in the White House, there's going to be a series of bad ideas being struck down in the same way. PATRIOT II, FISA's attack on hebeas corpus, the Presidential directives that allow torture....

I see this as the beginning... people of good consience are sensing that the death grip that the Bush and his minons had on America's throat is starting to fade... soon, perhaps, we'll have America back on track again.

From your lips to gods ears...I hope..Past critics of executive Power once havng achieved that lofty position were not in all cases willing to scale back such privilidge...Jefferson being first and maybe best example of this trait
