Whether or not you'd "want it done", I'm not in any hurry to turn over to Washington politicos the power to curtail freedom of speech.

You don't have to worry, it won't be done. The number of elected officials who think as I do here is probably...zero. My chief dislike is for political video, btw--electronic text can stay unregulated I suppose.
