House Kills SOPA

Posted by samzenpus on from the on-second-thought dept.

An anonymous reader writes "In a surprise move, Representative Eric Cantor (R-VA) announced that he will stop all action on SOPA, effectively killing the bill. This move was most likely due to the huge online protest and the White House threatening to veto the bill if it had passed. But don't celebrate yet. PIPA (the Senate's version of SOPA) is still up for consideration."

    How can a single representative kill the bill?

    Because he's the House Majority Leader.

    Why is a Jew in such a powerful position?

    Because it's America, where even an Anonymous race-baiting Cracker such as your own fine self can get elected to Federal office.
