John Culberson (R-Tx): Qik Interview on House Censoring 2.0 Content

Rep. Culberson explains the issue and delves into the more ridiculous side of franking regulation. Some have called this a partisan power-play, but Culberson seems eager to address and fix the issue, saying he'll approach Rep. Mike Capuano, Chairman of the House Franking Committee and say,

"Listen, Mike (Capuano), you have about as much chance of regulating the Internet as King Canute did at stopping the tide."

Culberson, a frequent Twitter poster, tweeted earlier today that,

"Twitter is the Fifth Estate & far more powerful ... because it is a true distributed network of We the People."

Capuano was quoted in the Washington Post earlier this year with his wisdom on the Internet:

"I make no bones about it. I don't know anything about this stuff," Capuano said with a shrug. "To me, the Web is a necessary evil," he admitted, "like cellphones."
