If he really wanted to protect children from accidentally surfing
porn, he'd pressure ICANN to stop domain kiting.

Bob Parsons (owner of GoDaddy) has an excellent analysis on his blog
at: http://www.bobparsons.com/MayKiting.html

This effort is aimed at something else (news flash: a polititian is

"to fight terrorism" or "to support the troops" [not necessarily the
war] is guaranteed to pass.
