... LOL ... a year from now and everyone will still be using the same Internet and still posting on Free Republic the exact same way you are now ... :-) ... it’s a tempest in a teapot!
Did they stick the”fairness doctrine” in the new regs?
in short you know squat.
You are probably just a troll "nothing to see hear move on" troll. what you say means nothing. This will have an effect if is allowed to stand.
You may be right that things will look much the same here in a year, but that doesn’t mean things haven’t changed. There were a lot of Republicans who were all for some of the stuff Bush passed that worried me, and who scoffed at the idea that the changes were disastrous. If the conservatives had joined with the liberals who were screaming about them, maybe Bush wouldn’t have gone so far. When Obama made use of those changes to his own advantage, *then* conservatives screamed, but of course by that point the liberals thought it peachy keen fine.
When people ignore the implications of a law because the law doesn’t immediately change things, or because they like the guy the law empowers, then that law gets harder and harder to change. Look at how Obamacare is being implemented, and it’s clear that the people making the most dangerous changes know how things work. The law gives them sweeping powers, but they only make use of those powers incrementally, so people don’t notice how much things have changed.
It’s only in retrospect that most people realize how much things have changed, and can then see the impact of these sorts of laws.
