Please, Chris Dodd, just shut up:

"It is an irresponsible response and a disservice to people who rely on them for information and use their services. It is also an abuse of power given the freedoms these companies enjoy in the marketplace today."

I'll try to be calm. These companies are PRIVATELY OWNED which means they have freedom of speech. If they want to blackout their site for a day, GOOD FOR THEM. The government can't control them so just go away, Senator Dodd.

Now Reid needs to do the right thing and pull it from the floor.  Like now.
