Dem Rep. Michael Capuano: I Bought Underwear on the Internet Last Week

EXCERPT:

CAPUANO: "Just last week I bought underwear on the Internet. Why should you know what size I take? Or the color? Or any of that information? These companies aren't going broke. That's not the situation. the Internet is not in jeopardy. This is plain and simple and I -- I don't get this. When I was growing up, I thought one of the tenets of the Republican party that I admired the most was privacy. It's mine, not yours, not the government's -- mine. You can't have it unless I give it to you. My phone number, my social security number, my credit card number, my passwords, everything is mine. And yet, you just want to give it away."
