The real question is do we REALLY want it sent back. I would rather have Chimpy sign a piece of Garbage legislation that is sure to not be inforced and challenged in the Courts, just to be tossed out later. Then to have Congress get The Bill back and find the time to make it more like its predecessor HR 4411 which actually Updates the Wire Act. Then things will get REALLY messy.
Keeping mind that I am the internal pessimist when it comes to what is going on here, if we had a chance to throw it back to Congress, I would take that in a heartbeat. If we could push out past elections, that would give us a fighting chance on several fronts:

1) Chance for a Democratic House or Senate majority to vote differently
(I think there is a good chance that at least the House will swing
Democratic);
2) Pushing this issue out after elections, will make it a non-issue for a lot
of the politicians who will be using a signed version of this bill to their
political and campaigning advantages;
3) It may give more time for the people to rally (aka Denise Richadson
protest rally).
Listen, this may all be a pipe dream at this point, based on a rumor that I am promoting, but let’s see what happens come Friday. I was 100 % sure that this would be signed Friday, and now I think it’s 90/10 %. Maybe we can draw this Ace on the River, and pull this one out.
