While I agree with the sentiment...
I firmly believe it starts with flawed logic.
Because something happened in Egypt...???
The truth is every sane American citizen who is even vaguely aware of the Constitution should be appalled and demand that both Senators be sanctioned and recalled.
There is NO place in the Constitution where the right of free speech may be abridged by the government. This has been repeatedly challenged and every single time the SCOTUS has ruled that methods of speech, are speech (ie money, writing etc).
Citizens United was about the use of communications as a form of speech, for citizens and companies. The SCOTUS affirmed that collective entities governed by the laws and regulations of the country, as well as individuals are entitled to, and cannot be shut out of the process of expressing speech. The internet is surely the most popular form (method) of speech today.
The fastest way to ensure this never happens is have a federal jusge affirm the internet as speech (as I am sure they have already done is obscenity challenges).
The Senators should be shamed into retirement...sooner than they plan. If our best defense is unplugging the system, we are already screwed anyways.
Geez!
