This is why you should be careful when you're voting. This person does not deserve to be a senator.

Some of the countries listed in OP as banning Bitcoin did not actually ban Bitcoin.

I suspect this senator was disappointed when that peculiar thing called bitcoin didn't go away when Mt.Gox had its managed crash, and now he desperately want's to get another stake into bitcoins heart, hoping to "finish the job"

It seems far fetched that this has anything to do with crime and money laundering. If that was the case, they would have banned crime and money laundering instead.
The argument about volatility is also far fetched. Staring on the exchange price and judging the technology based on that just doesn't make sense.
