yes, samcol, I agree with the virtues of a democratic republic. However in this case I don't see it doing much good. The politicians would like to place restrictions on blogging as well, and if theystart classifying bloggers as journalists or quasi-journalists, they will be able to. And bloggers will have to adhere to a whole bunch of rules, at least when blogging about politics.
