#1 Anyone else find it refreshing that the republican house has done more legislation work in three months than the entire dhimocrat bunch did the previous two years?

#2 Mixed emotions here. I prefer Net-Neutrality.
Hate these mega-corps that try to own everything and no trustbusters breaking them up.

#3 the FCC under "Butch Patrick" Genachowski has shown no congressional mandate allowing them to do any of this. I suspect the title has absolutely no connection to the underlying powers that could be abused, given the FCC's overreach. It is a creeping control over net gateways/sites. How long before the FCC decides that in the interest of net neutrality, Fred can't moderate comments? Far fetched? so was providing taxpayer bailouts to foreign banks without telling us

#4 The problem with 'Net Neutrality' is that it isn't.

#5 I'm against allowing the federal gummint to regulate the internet in any way.

Be assured they'd f*** it up. Royally.

#6 Barb is right. The Fed has done nothing right at all in more than 20 years. I see longer. They half ass or screw up everything worse.
