Pres. Obama said he would veto SOPA.  But that's what he said about the Indefinite Detention bill, and then he went and signed that.  HE LIED TO US AND TO CONGRESS.  So why should we trust him?

Here is where to click to write to your representatives against SOPA and PIPA.  We have until January 24 to get this message out, then they vote on it that day.  They're in recess now.  You could even go see your reps in person.
