"Good thing we voted them in, right? "

ANY AND EVERY PERSON WHO VOTES FOR A REPUBLICAN IS NOT ONLY STUPID, THEY BORDER ON TREASONOUS ACTIVITY.

I used to be one of them.

No Pelosi Congress in 2009 and there would be no Obamacare.

Yes, we do love to vote for the people who will betray us. Vote for the “R” candidate...he’s better than the “D”!

No he is not. He is worse than the “D.”

When we ponder how liberal consistently vote against the nation’s interests...we might do just the very same thing regarding those stout party Republican loyalists.

Do I want another 4 years of liberal BS, no. No one really does, even the liberals. But what is worse is I do not want to be betrayed either. And yes, betrayal is worse than dealing with an in your face liberal.

What followed has been the longest, most sustained campaign of Internet activism in history, one that the little guys appear to have won

I guess this might be true if the definition of little guys is BIG government.

No one really wants free speech. Both parties are bothered by it.

Funny thing is China has the Great E Wall, which everyone from China seems to know how to get around.

Thune denies:

Yet, just taking up “net neutrality” is a stupid issue. Leave the Internet government free and watch the innovation.

Where’s the problem anyhow? It’s just a made up issue.

I think one reason Obama is keeping his net neutrality regulation a secret is that he's going to eliminate anonymity on the internet.

No more anonymity means they can find you if you post something they don't like.

Also, anything political will be treated as a campaign contribution and must be reported to the FEC.

Next, if it's a utility then we can't have anonymous people using it, just like how phone, water, and electricity users are not anonymous. Ignore the fact that you are not really an anonymous user of the utility because your ISP knows you and bills you each month. It's just the traffic content that is anonymous, but the usage is paid for.

And finally, if anonymity is to be banned, then this will also ban all personal encryption and VPN services that spoof internet traffic, with the possible exception of business telecommuting and online banking and stock trading traffic, but only if decryption keys are registered with the government.

That's my prediction, anyway.

You have made a very shallow observation

They still lack the raw power to absolutely prevail. They need 60 votes. If you re unable to see that you are not looking

I know it’s PC to bitch and moan, even if the bitching and moaning is not justified.
