Republicans could soon champion the protection of Internet Freedom as an official party issue, The Daily Caller has learned. Language in the final draft of the Internet freedom proposal was obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller.
The language was finalized on Tuesday, a source in the Republican Party told The Daily Caller, but it awaits party approval next week at the upcoming Republican National Convention.
Approval of the newly finalized draft language, however, would make the party the first of the two dominant political parties to fully and officially embrace Internet freedom. It also signals what Republicans view as important and necessary to keep the Internet open and free.

    Mitt Romney's one redeeming virtue is Jan Brewer.
    I hope she doesn't get screwed over - along with the rest of US - by him.

    Galt - Me too, it's pretty bad having to count on Mitt to protect our guns, but he's better that Omamma.
