I agree.
Since the Republican politicians answer to the red state "moral majority" and they control the Executive and Legislative branches, they could do a lot to make things difficult.
As an example, we have only to look at China, where they just block access to any websites they don't like - even ones run by people in other countries. So US could just do the same thing.
The Patriot Act gives the US government a lot of powers to take extreme actions without any real justification.
They
probably won't because a lot of people are making a lot of money in porn. But who knows? The scariest thing to me about religious fundamentalists is that they are not thinking rationally. What if they decide that the quickest way to get themselves into heaven is by banning extreme porn sites? They might do it.
