"It's not a waiting game, it's a game of poker. Lamar Smith has a royal flush and few people know it.

SOPA may pass. It may not. He doesn't care, and it doesn't matter. The MPAA and RIAA started working on their legislative strategy to pass a new anti-piracy bill in late 2010. SOPA was designed to raise the noise. Everyone is playing right into the entertainment industries hand. The lobbyists are laughing manically at the ignorance of the mob. Even Wikipedia and reddit have played into it."

It irritates me that posts like that get so many upvotes on Reddit when they provide absolutely no evidence for what they say.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that it's incorrect, but it is speculation stated as fact.
