Now, SOPA has got attention of a heavyweight in the US politics -- Republican Ron Paul, who despite being a Republican is known for his 'liberal' views.
Paul may or may not fully understand the 'implications' of the dangerous bill but he did point out that the bill will "take over the Internet" and "monitor everything we do".
'I fear the undermining of protection of the right here at home.'...

"Liberal" my @$$. Below is a quote from his book, that he wrote himself. It is his words from his book. In his 1987 manifesto "Freedom Under Siege: The U.S. Constitution after 200-Plus Years,"
In another chapter on the rights of individuals outside of government – the central theme of Paul's libertarian philosophy - he sharply criticized the "absurdity" of politicians who try to bestow differing rights on various social and ethnic groups.
It's dangerous to craft a separate set of rights for groups like Hispanics, African-Americans, children, employees and the homeless", Paul wrote.
"Until all these terms are dropped and we recognize that only an individual has rights the solution to the mess in which we find ourselves will not be found," Paul explained.
"Every year new groups organize to demand their 'rights,'" he continued. "White people who organize and expect the same attention as other groups are quickly and viciously condemned as dangerous bigots. Hispanic, black, and Jewish caucuses can exist in the U.S. Congress, but not a white caucus, demonstrating the absurdity of this approach for achieving rights for everyone."
Sounds just like a Klansman to me.
