FOXNews.com - The FCC Goes for the Nuclear OptionI haven't read up on the subject, the theory behind it, the positives and the negatives, the actual plan, etc.
In its effort to imposing crippling net neutrality regulations on the Internetan idea with very little support from the American public or Congressthe Obama administration first turned to the FCC simply to pretend Congress has given it authority to regulate.
That effort suffered a major setback when the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals emphatically smacked down the FCCs regulatory proposals in Comcast v. FCC. President Obama and his close friend and FCC chairman Julius Genachowski, however, refuse to back down. Instead theyre escalating to the regulatory equivalent of a nuclear attack on the free-market Internet: Chairman Genachowski will announce today his intention to reclassify broadband Internet as an old-fashioned telephone system as a pretext for pervasive regulatory control.
Governmental control over the free flow of information reason enough to oppose this particular power grab.
And please don't let the fact that I linked to Fox news be your counterpoint. It was the first link that came up on Google.
It's not that it's FOX, it's that it's an Opinion piece. Another reason Obama's right, sheesh. You just linked me to an opinion piece when I said I haven't studied up on this subject. Hoping you don't consider this studying up, is all.
All he did was cite his spin on Events that happened. In order for me to form an opinion, I'd have to read on this shit for an hour or more to accurately pinpoint what it's all about and not simply divulge into what my inner rhetoritician tells me. That's just propoganda.
That darn freedom of speech, expression, and the press. Boo freaking hoo, it's getting in Obama's way.
When liberals start whining about too much democracy what they are whining about is, they can't lie to us without someone cutting in and blurting out the truth. Oh boo freaking hoo, why can't liberals have a closed society like Stalin had.
This is why they are always admiring dictators like Castro. Dictators like Castro get to jail their detractors.
See it here: Hot Air Obama: All this darned media is putting “pressure” on our democracy
Oh boo freaking hoo, those darn Ipods, Xboxes and Ipads.
Pompous is liberalism for he really does think I'm being "uppity."
I mean we "peasants" can't go around criticizing liberals like GT and Obama.
They know soooooooooooooooooo much more than we do!
Notice GT has ceased to even TRY and debate the subject. He's just attacking and whining.
That's what liberals do when they have totally lost the debate.
And in so doing reveal their true problem with too much "information/freedom of speech/press."
There are too many people on the other side of the issue that can mop the floor with them on any subject if they are allowed to discuss/debate/have free speech.
Damn that freedom of speech/press.
Liberals have been whining about that once, since they were still apologizing for Stalin in the 60s.
S0n, the debate on substance has BEEN over, now us elite and smarter than thou are just toying with your pea-sized brain. First off, you misinterpret what he says because you can't read. Secondly, you say that Obama's opinion on how there's lots of lies out there means he wants to surpress free speech, but don't even consider that using your same logic means you don't want Obama to have free speech........simply cuz you're complaining about his, like he did the lies. (do you know how logic works, or nah, pea brain?). I will not lie, it is fucking with such a mental midgit though. Me smawt, you dumb! I am elite! and thank youz!
A) I hate to break it to you but you are getting your butt kicked by a woman. I know that always hurts a male chauvenist, because they always try to morph me into a man. Talk about not being able to read. You notice my avatar lately? (doofus)
B) When liberals are losing they try to claim you are making the same argument as them.
But it doesn't work.
Liberals always claim their free speech is being "infringed" if ANYONE criticizes their opinion.
That isn't infringing their free speech. We have the right to criticize back.
And then they try to claim you are making an argument not made. When you find where I have said Obama is crushing our free speech, let me know.
I never said that. I said Obama would LIKE too, and that's why he's whining about free speech. Same thing Clinton did, and liberals even tried to do so (in the 90s) with hate speech codes. It didn't work. It was easy to see through the attempt as an attempt to inhibit free speech.
No one has suggested Obama is trying to bring back the hate speech codes. But he definitely is WHINING about it, just as YOU ARE.
C) Liberals are masters of projection, hence I that picture about jealousy fits your perfectly.

Comcast ruling raises questions on FCC regulation
Attention people!!: the reference to " I-pods" and "iphone's" and "playstations" was simply a diversion for what most people missed because they limit themselves to one form of media, or one talk show. Just recently, the the FCC under Frank Lloyd, tried to implement "net nuetrality", and was denied by the supreme court. They then came out with a statement that they would simply declare the Internet a "public utility" so they could regulate it. Now, the FTC is going to try the same thing with cable tv. The annointed ones speech was a prelude as to what his administration plans to do with th Internet, cable news, and talk radio. Am I the only one who was dumbfounded to hear the words "information is a hinderance and threatens our democracy"?? Listen to his words carefully because he is setting the stage for their attack on certain media outlets, ie; cable news, Internet bloggers, talk radio, IE; shutting up anyone who opposes his policies!! That's why his comments about not knowing how to work an iPod and such didn't make any sense,.... because it had nothing to do with these devices,... only the message that he intends to stop any and all forms of dissent! Where is the ACLU??,... Where are the cries from Hillary of "to dissent is American!"?? Where are the libs screaming for freedom of speech??
Unadulterated bullshit."FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is proposing to promote competition and preserve the free flow of Web traffic by applying to broadband Internet service certain provisions of rules designed to regulate traffic on copper-wire telephone networks."

Regulators, by definition, restrict the free flow of anything which they regulate.

Well, I suppose if you studied up on what they actually want to do like I felt obligated to do before I spoke on it, as opposed to just diverting to platitudes..........you might understand a little better than the idea is actually the antithesis of restriction. But hey, do you man. Do you.

Yea, I don't see anything about limiting speech at all. Thanks for the read, though.
I don't even know your political views,.... and frankly I don't care, but I wish EVERY American would read this post and act accordingly! The problem is that liberals are usually liberals before anything else. Just look at some of the posts on here. I applaud your reason...
.
Or Venezuala with his pal Chavez!!Perhaps Obama should move to China...the government there seems to be on the same page with Obama concerning knowledge and information.

No, you're not. I too am extremely upset by DC's attack on our personal freedoms.
I was one of the group of "nutjobs" that was jumping up and down about the Patriot Act just after 9/11, when everyone was giving the Bush administration and all the alphabet soup guys (CIA/FBI/DHS/DEA/DOJ/INS, etc) free reign to intercept calls, emails and monitor our every move in the name of National Security. Heck, the cameras being all over NYC make me nervous, even though they obviously serve a purpose, it's just creepy to think that "Big Brother" has finally arrived, and it saddens me to realize how diminished our expectation of privacy has become.
Personally, I am not at all upset that Mr. Obama actually spoke what is in his heart, (I'm surprised that he showed his cards, though) because that gives Americans a heads up about what the government is about to attempt to do. I do hope the American public will stop screaming in each other's face long enough to take a look at what is going on. We need to realize what is about to happen to us unless we stand up and demand that they stop.
Every single one of us needs to be "screaming for freedom of speech". Regardless of our political bent, surely we don't want anyone to lose the freedom of expression, do we? We need to pay very close attention to what is coming up, because each and every freedom we have enjoyed as Americans are in jeopardy.....
ps, Much as some would like to think it possible, Obama is not going to become the first US dictator, so there will most likely be a party shift sometime in the future.....would you want a Republican administration deciding what is "truth" and what can be broadcast? Please think beyond 2012, folks.
Good God your incredibly naive!! Again, I understand that your a liberal first,.. but you can't actually believe everything the pinheads in Washington tell you??,..... nobody's that stupid,.... even you!.....Unadulterated bullshit."FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is proposing to promote competition and preserve the free flow of Web traffic by applying to broadband Internet service certain provisions of rules designed to regulate traffic on copper-wire telephone networks."
