Kentucky Rep. Tim Couch has filed a bill aimed at making anonymous commenting on Web sites illegal.
“The bill would require anyone who contributes to a Web site to register their real name, address and e-mail address with that site,” according to press reports. “Their full name would be used anytime a comment is posted.”
A Web site owner would have to pay a fine if someone posted anonymously on their site, if the bill were to become law. Under the plan a first-time offense fine would be $500, and a Web site owner would have to pay $1,000 for each subsequent offense.
Couch said he hopes to cut down online bullying.

That would suck the joy out of it…
Wouldn’t it Paul??
I didn’t know they had computers in Kentucky.
Please understand people, I’m a freaking moron.
This guy Tim Couch is a Republican, of course. What an idiot!
Bloggers can control their own sites now, and many do to prevent trolls. Sounds like Couch’s proposed law would penalize bloggers for comments filed with false addresses. And how would this proposed law be enforced? A big more government oversight of the “internets”?
Too bad this Rep isn’t interested in preventing the actions of international bullies, like maybe that fool in the White House.
THAT WOULD PUT PAUL AND JAY AND BOBNECK AND ALL THESE GUTLESS INTERNET WARRIOR LIARS BACK TO PLAYING WITH THEMSELVES IN THEIR OUT HOUSES.
Expect a knock on your door any minute now.
See, that’s what I’m talking about. Stop picking on me or you’ll be sorry!
I’m Tim Couch and I approve this post.
I’d like to have that crazy Representative from Kentucky and the poster above arrested for using my name.

I SHOULD HAVE THE FREEDOM TO ACCUSE ANYONE ABOUT HAVING GAY SEX WITH ME. BY THE WAY MITT ROMNEY SUCKED MY COCK. IT HAPPENED IN MAY OF 2000. THE LIMO DRIVER WILL BECOMING FORWARD SOON.
Oh my gosh I can’t believe someone is seriously trying to do that! It won’t pass, a lot of people post BECAUSE they can remain anonymous, and if someone disagrees with your post now, they will know your full name and can google your ass! WTF!
Big Head DC, how can we stop this from happening? Contact information? We need solutions!!
okay i made my donation,,,wooosh,,,,its worth it,,,,heck, i used to lose more than i donated to larrys legal fund in one hand of a rigged poker site,,,,,and the frickin site would always end up banning my chat,,,,,ahahahahhaha,,,,,at least here i havent had my chat banned yet,,,,,
Freedom of speech? We don’t need no stinkin’ freedom of speech!
This asshole is a real Nazi, and he will be stopped, legally, and quick.
Someone has to give these Goddamned Nazis the message that they don’t run America, not yet, not by a long shot.

And how are they going to actually enforce this? It won’t pass!
This would be cool. I could register on sites I hate and use false info and really rack up the fines against them. ahahahaha, bring it on.
Online bullying is a safe way to vent ones frustrations. If an individual or public in general , isn’t allowed to open up the pissed-valve once in a while, then they may just end up grabbing a picket sign and start heading to the nearest group protest where they can blow-off the steam live and in person.
As a matter of fact, I think Couch’s law would be a great motivator. Thanks, Timmy.
Do it “for the children!”
I guess his constituents are tired of being bullied online, you know, hillbilly, trailer trash, red neck, etc.
You’ll need to find a free speech zone first.
Mr. Crouch, I will drug you and anally rape you with a broken bottle if you try to violate my privacy.
Really, my name is Fuck The Jews. I swear it
They are destroying the wold and now they want to stop the spreadding of information through internet.
More and more people are finding out about hoaxes like 9/11, 7/7, holocau$t, …
Search in video.google.com these topics and you will see.
These control freaks need to be tried and hung for crimes against humanity.
lisson’ here you dang cittee slcikers. we don not need you on are internets!!!!!! go kentucky!!! inbread spirit ( or unbridled spirit) ky rules, evarone elst sucks! tim couch is the gratest football player evar come outa ky so i voted for him for republican!!!!!!! wooohoooo
As if you thought this country couldn’t get much more communist without putting the sickle and hammer on Ol’ Glory, now we have big government wanting to regulate internet intellectual content. This Tim Couch must spend an awful lot of time trying to emulate his ChiCom masters to come up with this un-American crap.
Hey Tim, did your mother marry her bro and you are the end result?
What are you? And who are you? If you don’t like what someone is saying bout u, that is to bad. I can understand why now. Your a fking moron.
Oh course by manipulating the Internet public to shut ANY kind of political speak that goes against the current affairs. Would be most welcome by Billy.
SEE? It is not Free America anymore. It’s a FREE Ride for Politicians and their money changers.While they decapitate our Country.
What happened to the USA we knew and were proud of ?
I Hate freedom . Because I get rich doing what the money changers want.
maybe we should outlaw and destroy outlaw and politicians.i thought this was the land of the free
Lovely. There goes the idea that old Poor Richard (Benjamin Franklin) was anything but a stalker and bully, huh?
Here’s the dope; If any such law ever passed, I would personally build a website specifically designed to violate it and if arrested, I would prefer to serve time at the government’s expense, over paying a fine.
You want a revolution? Go ahead… tread on me.
I’d like to correct the FTJ potty mouth here. It’s ZIONISTS NOT ‘jews’ who worked with our CIA to do 911. They give real Jews a bad name. Google their satanic doctrine called the ‘TALMUD.’ Totally opposite the TORAH. Then expand your knowledge with these websites: http://nogw.com/ilrunshow.html www.realnews247.com and www.whatreallyhappened.com where I got THIS website. This last one is the BEST for current news. Also see www.rense.com
Tim Couch needs to put down the crack pipe.
Anonymity is already history if they’ve got your IP address. Of course an anonymizer can help you … but the bottom line is that the matrix already has you … you’ve been vacuumed into Echelon’s memory holes. Don’t do anything online you wouldn’t do on the 50-yard line at halftime at the Super Bowl….
I think we should all name our selves.. Robert Paulson.
Hey stop using my name.
Help Larry Sinclair prove his charges against Barack Obama, Mr. Axelrod, and Mr. Parisi in court. His attorney has setup a paypal acct for those who have expressed an interest in donating to Larry’s legal fund. There is also an address to send check or money order, for those who are not comfortable using paypal.

pathetic.
rense and repeat.
good couch nazis take cyanide.
This is a stupid idea, just another why for big brother to keep their eye on you. Little by little they are going after the internet. savetheinternet.com has great info, make your voice heard while you still can.
Is Obama a voodoo priest? We can only look at the facts. That is all we can do.

This is laughable, you can register any name and any address you want, just make one up…….how can anyone police that??
Oh puleeze. Nothing is ‘anonymous’ anymore in the modern surveilance age. They quite literally have been spying on EVERYTHING for years but just want to make it ‘legal’ as well as discourage dissent. They tap your phone, open your mail, can do ’snaek’ searches of house, office, etc. and monitor all bank transactions yet they want even MORE. And doctors and school officials interrogate kids as to their parents behavior. Cellphones can be used as tracking devices and remote listening devices. Computer cameras can be remotely activated. TIA is alive and well under Admiral Poindexter. Next they’ll want to put cameras in everyone’s homes. Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep. It starts when your always afraid.
BWAAhahaha
Mwahahahaha
haHAhahaha
Mwaaaahahaha
LOL
Fire this guy. There are far more important thing to deal with. Social Security is broken, the economy is in the crapper along with education, health care is all messed up, people are in danger of losing their homes, and we’re in a war that we shouldn’t be in, and can’t afford. But let’s worry about what some trolls on on the internet are saying.
How do you bully on the internet anyway? “Give me your cyber-lunch money, or I’ll give you a E-swirly, and a digital wedgie.”
Sounds like a tool of the kikes! Most of the evil in the world can be directly or indirectly tied to the bastards!
A’ight that’s it! Now Y’all dun made fun o me and ma bill fo the last time! *sniff* *sob* Um just tryin ta help! *sniff* The next amon…anym…anyo…the next post that I don’t know who sent it and you will see that bill passed faster than Hillary Clinton lost Wyoming! Quicker than Bush can read! Faster than Bernanke devalued the dollar! Let me see another unknown post! Just one more time! Ima warning ya!
Real Nice….MORON! Let’s do this….negotiate. When all the MSM hacks reveal the thousands of “unnamed sources” in the Whitehouse, CIA, FBI, State Dept, Congress, etc that they routinely qoute in their purposely slanted tales, then we’ll talk! This cat reads the political landscape about as well as he read opposing NFL defensive backfields……only in KY and not even in Cleveland could this “dufass” get elected.
Turn that couch to face the wall would’ya!
I’m sick and tired of lookin at it!
Sheesh
STOMP squeak STOMP squeak STOMP squeak stomp stomp stomp….SLAM
Another great idea from one of the die hard Bush Brown Shirts or Brown Nosers.
I suggest Mr Tim Couch you return back to your native Kentucky and get a real job, such as in one of the many factory chicken farms across the Blue Grass State or work in a coal mine.
As I have said about West Virginia and so many other places across the United States of Amerika. Who’s minding the gene pool?
Kentucky Rep. Tim Couch is only ONE nut case. How many nut cases voted him in?????
Shut up!
I’ve got the conch!
You must all shut up!
I’ve got the conch!
OK
I’m going to pass it to Piggy now.
Piggy? Any words of advice to the group?
Hey couch the tax payers are not paying you for this nonsense,maybe you should be removed form office you damn moron!!
get a life you idiot,or go back to the couch
Come on people, don’t you know that God told Tim to introduce this law. It is only for your own safety. He cares about you. He really does. But hey, Kentucky ain’t all bad, if I am not mistaken, marijuana is their number one cash crop. You can still smoke it there if you do it anonymously.
It’s a stupid and unworkable idea.
Yeah. I said it.
Time:
So will all talk radio shows will also have to identify themselves and give their full name?
Is a full name and address enough Tim? Shouldn’t we requires SS numbers? I mean, anyone can look up a name and address in a phone book. and fingerprints…(oh, but the mexican criminals grind them off-ouch) retina scans!!!
So - to post on the net, or comment on a radio talk show - we must - give full ID, SS number, fingerprints, retina scans, and a signed notarized affidated.
Is this enough Time?

Kentucky Rep. Tim Couch has filed a bill aimed at making anonymous commenting on Web sites illegal.
Sounds like anther numb nut hick republican returd from Kentucky.
This numb nut should be more concerned about what he is doing for american people.For sure bimbos like Tim do not have that ability.
After all it takes a bimbo to support a bimbo.
Partidos de idiotas…..no vale la pena ni de pensar en ellos.
Bunch of idiots……. is not worth it even to think about them.
Is it just me, or does it seem like more and more ass-clowns are going into politics lately?
At the end of the day this will not help at all. A ‘cyber bully’ who’s only intention is to cause upset will do whatever they want, regardless of any fines the Site Owner might recieve.
Secondly - What happened to FREEDOM? People dont need forcing to think a certain way, we are adults and are allowed to choose if something is right or wrong, the law doesnt need to take that choice away from innocent people.
This guy is an idiot, there are reasons for anonymity on some sites. For example: the legal practice of shunning family members because they choose to leave cults such as Jehovah’s Witnesses causes some to remain incognito while receiving support from others on some discussion boards. Make the destruction of families illegal if you want to cut down on bullying. No one is forced to post on a website, if you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen. Bullying? Give me a break.

You mostly dumb Americans would you please educate yourself for once to what is going on around you!! You all should be embarrased of your stupidity and ingnorance! (There is about 5% of Americans that have a clue and the rest will get what they deserve if they don’t open their eyes up soon to the nightmare thats coming all our way) I hope its not too late
Ahhh
very good Hitlerkinder
Squeal on your mommies and daddies.

Look at the Couch grin, it says “I like dick”
This is just the beginning of the end, our Republic is dead and we are citizens no more
all congressmen suck my dick
I think that all these stupid laws should apply to just the people the purpose of limited gov was set up to do, apply laws to regulate government and government workers. Pass the dang law, were gonna figure out how to apply all of them to who they are meant to apply to. The only people that need regulated, the GOVERNMENT and all you wonderful employees at work, working for the gov. there has to be a way to keep track of you.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. THIS GUY TIM COUCH IS AWESOME!!! He really care about you and wants to protect you. Thank you, Timmy Couch, for protecting us from the bad bad people posting “anonomasly” (sp?).
What the #$%^ people? This guy is an idiot!! Wake up. Jesus Christ, what a joke this guy is!
