Why citizens against surveillance abuse won't be voting for Rep. Blackburn

This was a neat comment on CNet's Privacy Inc. following a story about Marsha Blackburn's duality on net regulation c/o Mickey White.

"Why does Marsha Want Congress to Regulate the Internet? Why not just say NO FEDERAL branch (the FCC and congress and the federal courts included) has any authority to decide or rule on any aspect concerning the Internet? 
BUT Marsha Blackburn did Vote FOR: Patriot Act Reauthorization, Electronic Surveillance, Funding the REAL ID Act (National ID), Foreign Intelligence Surveillance, Thought Crimes "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act, Warrantless Searches, Employee Verification Program, Body Imaging Screening, Patriot Act extension; and only NOW she is worried about free speech, privacy, and government take over of the internet. " 
Stop by and drop off your 2 cents anytime, Mickey.
