w00t!
Wyden's always kind of annoyed me, but he's stood behind a few pretty solid
things.
And he's better than his freakishly conservative counterpart, Elephant Sen.
Gordon Smith (who in previous years has seemed to take quite a bit of pride
in his subtle and evil manipulation of Oregon voters.)
Of course, this bill is years behind and ridiculously small in scope.
"Too little, too late" -- it's what politics vs. the Internet is all about.
