Google's Eric Schmidt blasts SOPA, but at the hearing, "the fix" is already in!

http://j.mp/tf3dLh  (Reuters/Huffington)

    "The solutions are draconian," Schmidt said during an appearance at
     the MIT Sloan School of Management. "There's a bill that would require
     (Internet service providers) to remove URLs from the Web, which is
     also known as censorship last time I checked."

Only *one* person against SOPA -- from Google -- is being permitted to
speak at the hearing on Wednesday.  Everyone else will be proponents of
the legislation. The Fix Is In.
