Forget about theocratic Iran or Communist China; today's report of a political entity trying to regulate blogging comes not from The People's Republic of China, but rather The People's Republic of San Francisco. Are we seriously going to compare San Fransisco to a theocracy and a dictatorship every time a city supervisor comes up with a boneheaded idea? I have news for you: people in SF come up with stupid ideas all the time, and most don't get very far.

I might reply with this:
Forget about theocratic Iran: today's report of a political entity trying to impose theocracy comes not from the Islamic Republic of Iran, but rather the United States Congress. As sponsored by 5 Senators and 25 House Representatives:

Constitution Restoration Act of 2005 - Amends the Federal judicial code to prohibit the U.S. Supreme Court and the Federal district courts from exercising jurisdiction over any matter in which relief is sought against an entity of Federal, State, or local government or an officer or agent of such government concerning that entity's, officer's, or agent's acknowledgment of God as the sovereign source of law, liberty, or government.

Prohibits a court of the United States from relying upon any law, policy, or other action of a foreign state or international organization in interpreting and applying the Constitution, other than English constitutional and common law up to the time of adoption of the U.S. Constitution.
Provides that any Federal court decision relating to an issue removed from Federal jurisdiction by this Act is not binding precedent on State courts.
Provides that any Supreme Court justice or Federal court judge who exceeds the jurisdictional limitations of this Act shall be deemed to have committed an offense for which the justice or judge may be removed, and to have violated the standard of good behavior required of Article III judges by the Constitution.

Something like this could have a much more severe effect on blogs than some stupid SF city supervisor's dimwitted proposals.
