Hmm...I left a comment and it did not post...

Does it go through an approval process?

Just a reminder to be respectful with your points. Remember, you are dealing with a woman

And a Senator. And the wife of a former Governor. People are getting so upset, yet reasoned persuasion may be the way to deal with Senator Snowe and this bill. Remember, you catch more bees with honey than with vinegar.

She is very popular and quite the moderate. From wikipedia:

A moderate Republican, Snowe has become widely known for her ability to influence close votes and Senatorial filibusters, making her among the most influential of U.S. Senators. She is considered a centrist Republican in the senate.[1]

In 2006, she was named one of "America's Top Ten Senators" by Time Magazine.[2] Congressional Quarterly noted that her presence at the negotiating table in the 107th Congress was "nearly a necessity." Her political popularity in her home state is the highest of any current U.S. Senator; as of November 22, 2006, she enjoyed a 79 percent approval rating in her home state of Maine.[3]

This blog seems to be something I would very much be interested in. (3 cheers)

I do own over 200 domain names, But, I dont have any names that are deceptive or are used to take milk money or clean out bank accounts.

If I was the average Internet user I would agree with this this bill as the blog has explained.

I do not agree with the billion dollar companies tanking any domain names that have their own brand of services / items.

Onward,

The comments are moderated. I’d imagine there are at least 5 new comments coming today.


Gregcyber,

You don't need to have domain names that are deceptive. With the wording of this Bill, generic domain names are in jeopardy.

 

[Gerry]

Quite a delay in adding comments but it is there at number 20.

Something is missing in the first paragraph, I think the bill number.

@ # 20

Nice post Gerry.
