While Free Press pitches a (staged?) hissy fit about one with AT&T, Verizon – and Google and Skype Chairman Julius Genachowski and his Federal Communications Commission (FCC) have been for quite some time seeking to drastically increase their regulatory control over the internet.
The Chairman and the Commission lack the legal authority to do this. They have been told this by (at least) a Clinton-appointee led federal appeals court – in the Comcast-BitTorrent case – and a bipartisan Congressional contingent, who wrote Chairman Genachowski letters telling him to cut it out.
Undaunted, Chairman Genachowski headed once more into the breach. On June 17th, he convened the five FCC Commissioners to vote on a proposed reclassification of broadband – from the lightly regulated Title I to the much more burdensome Title II. And the Commission voted to begin the investigative process, on a Democrat Party-line 3-2 vote.

Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Like Zombies, the radical left NEVER gives up. Day after day and night after night, they are relentlessly plotting to achieve their socialist goals. If we drop our guard, even for a moment, we and the country we love are toast.
What’s worse is that we’ve had many longtime Freepers pimping Free Press URL’s in favor of ‘neutrality’ as the gospel on why it’s such a great idea.
All you have to do is some very basic research to figure out that this is a group of leftist tools, who aren’t letting you in on their full agenda:

Soon it will be the less we know the more we get controlled.
I don’t recognize the “Free Press” group in the (too short!) sentence above. Are they a trade group, or a press company of papers?
Which gives the communists an excuse to call in lethal force themselves. First, they tear things down, then they offer a few crumbs if people do what they want. They have been planning this for years. The fun is only beginning.
Yep. This revolution started in the 1930s. We are in the end game. Unfortunatly, most Americans aren’t even paying attention...
Sounds like how the Big Pharma lobby secretly meeting with Hussein in the White House in February and March of 2009, cutting deals for help on the DeathCare law.
Where are all the Apple darlings? Jobs could say no an dthis thing would probably die. Ditto Gates.
Is TMobile involved? I see SCUMMY Verizon and AT&T.
nothing wrong with the 2nd Amendment. If it was good enough for our founding fathers, it is surely good enough for me!

Yep. Same sneaky bunch.
FreePress is a marxist organization led by Prof. Robert McChesney (believe he’s at Un. of Michigan, a law professor ?). Hardcore communist. One of his assistants is now the spokeswoman for FCC chairman/leftist Genochowski.
The FCC has been specifically targetted in order to cripple or destroy conservative radio and other non-speech regulated media, including Sirius Radio. This plot has long been in the works and under Obama, the left stands the best chance in history to destroy the First Amendment.
McChesney, like Prof. Joel Rogers (Un. of Wisc), is one of the most dangerous men and enemies of a democratic America.
Check out the Glenn Beck website for tons of information on both. The same for the site www.newzeal.blogstop.com.

Yes, unfortunately true. Don’t get it.
Exactly right, JPG. Here's a great article that we should always keep bumped on FR. "The Drumbeat" perfectly illustrates your post above:
The government becoming involved is something else entirely.
Free Press = an oxymoron, literally.
