Why do Congressional Democrats fear free speech?

Efforts in both chambers of Congress have Republicans wondering
why Democrats seem to fear free speech.  Rep. Michael Capuano (D-
MA) has proposed limitations on how Representatives can post
information to the Internet in a time when we should be demanding
more transparency, not less.  [...]

In the Senate, the problem gets even worse.  Feinstein (D-CA)
would have the Rules Committee act as a censor board, forcing
members to get approval for the act of communicating on external
websites.  Further, it would appear that the Feinstein proposal
would attempt to exercise editorial control over these sites, at
least indirectly. [...]

The sudden interest in silencing Congress goes right along with
the brand-new 9% approval rating the Democratic leader****p has
earned Congress.  Imagine how much worse it will get when they gag
their members and force an end to communication through policy
sites, blogs, and Internet media.

Want to ask Feinstein what she=92s thinking?  Be sure to e-mail her
through her website or call the Senate Rules Committee at
202-224-6352 to express your sup****t for free speech and
transparency.  Ask them what they have to hide that the 9% of
Americans who still sup****t them shouldn=92t find out.
