Life Under #NetNeutrality

Want 50Mbps Internet in your town? Threaten to roll out your own
ISPs may not act for years on local complaints about slow Internet—but when a town rolls out its own solution, it's amazing how fast the incumbents can deploy fiber, cut prices, and run to the legislature.

TDS had one main complaint: the project should not be financed with city bonds.

So a company moved up priority of upgrading a town's connectivity before the town was sold out on politics. The essence of Net Neutrality is....who the hell pays for it. There's no plan worth installing when bureaucrats call a telecom greedy then offer IOU bonds to the lowest bidder! The government is worth nothing as it is and the internet is a business built on cash.

Only consumers have cash, not taxpayers broke by social justice. This effort is more about propaganda attacking the image of a telecom which moved in to halt the public assimilation of a valuable network to pad the resume of local politicians than bringing broadband to the people.

Will residents in Monticello ever hear about that or is it still too much fun to bash Bush?

Have Fox and the White House Declared a Truce?

NEW YORK -- Fox News Channel and the Obama administration are talking. The network confirmed reports that Fox news executive Michael Clemente met at the White House on Wednesday with Robert Gibbs, President Barack Obama's press secretary. There were no details given about the meeting.

Fox has been battling with the administration, which contends the network operates more like a wing of the Republican Party than a news organization.

Fox News won the war, the network is nothing like the Republican Party.

#NetNeutrality Battle of the Corporate Titans

Net neutrality is often portrayed as a fight over whether or not we want big corporations to control the Internet. But the truth is that there are big corporations on both sides of the debate.

It is clear that the debate is about one set of corporate interests battling another set of corporate interests about the Internet, each seeking to protect or strengthen its business model. The FCC is surfing the debate pursuing a greater role for itself, meaning more budget and power.

Consumers are always the ones to be screwed by these socialized power struggles. None of them have any business running our lives or changing how we stay informed. Consumers only want good connectivity at a competitive price without the socially engineered propaganda hustle.

Net Neutrality Seeks Destruction of Networks

AT&T, Google Battle Over Web Rules
Google, the powerhouse of Silicon Valley, and AT&T, champion for the old-line phone industry, are marshaling political allies, lobbyists and—in AT&T's case—labor unions for a fight over proposed "net neutrality" rules that could affect tens of billions of dollars in investments needed to upgrade the U.S. broadband network, which lags in speed and affordability compared with some countries.

Thus far, there have been only two high-profile instances of blocking or slowing Internet traffic, and both stopped soon after the FCC told the companies to knock it off.

Sounds to me like Goggle and AT&T are playing out a contrived public feud to kiss the ass of lobbyists on the Democratic side of the argument. Fair-minded Republicans are stepping in as peacekeepers as usual saying quit the antics and grow the pie instead of fighting for scraps while consumer internet connectivity degrades over time. Liberals are all around squabbling douchebags wherever you find them.

McCain Moves to Block His Old Image

McCain Moves to Block FCC's Net Neutrality
U.S. Sen. John McCain has introduced legislation that would block the Federal Communications Commission from creating new net neutrality rules, on the same day that the FCC took the first step toward doing so.

But service providers say the increasing volume of bandwidth-hogging services, such as video sharing, requires active management of their networks. AT&T President of Operations John Stankey said he is anticipating the rule with as much dread as if he were going to the funeral of a dear friend.

What an opportunity to piss on twitter where the #netneutrality comments resound 'f#ck you McCain'.

Google chief favors net neutrality but is wary of regulation
"It is possible for the government to screw the Internet up, big-time," he said. "The part of politics in Washington that's 'who you know' and all that kind of stuff, it's just not very interesting," he said.

Trying to consolidate the argument for us conservatives, I don't appreciate that because Goggle is totally pro-regulation on their own networks.

While conservatives on Facebook and Twitter will appreciate his obstruction if the FCC is set back months or years, we have to remember as far as John McCain's perceived lack of multimedia talent, for the record Senator McCain is old. Just old, nothing else that's it, no need to overcompensate for liberal demands.

WASHINGTON/CHICAGO, Oct 22 (Reuters) - U.S. communications regulators voted unanimously Thursday to support an open Internet rule that would prevent telecom network operators from barring or blocking content based on the revenue it generates.

* All 5 commissioners vote to seek public comment on rule
* Two Republican commissioners have some reservations
* Draft rule would allow for 'reasonable' net management
* Public comments accepted until Jan. 14
* Telecom firms worry rule would hamper network management (Adds vote by commissioners, quotes, background)

WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal regulators took an important step Thursday toward prohibiting broadband providers from favoring or discriminating against certain kinds of Internet traffic.

Blackburn: Net neutrality is 'fairness doctrine for the Internet'

Oh the Racists Oppose 'Neutrality'

Some Democrats, Minority Groups Question Net Neutrality
Democrats, including U.S. President Barack Obama, have generally supported new rules that would prohibit broadband providers from selectively blocking or slowing Web content, but the group of 72 members of the House of Representatives sent a letter Thursday to FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski, saying they're concerned that new regulations would slow down investment in broadband networks. Many of the 72 Democrats are members of the "Blue Dogs," a conservative wing of the party, or of the Congressional Black Caucus.

Although the Congressional Black Caucus isn't traditionally against government regulation, some members are concerned that many African-Americans and other ethnic minorities lack access to broadband networks. Among the House Democrats signing the letter were Elijah Cummings of Maryland, Charlie Gonzalez of Texas and Loretta Sanchez of California.

So liberals must oppose the Black Caucus and Blue Dogs to impose Net Neutrality. Don't worry Barack will set them in back of the bus eventually. Barack tries to impose archaic failed policies from the 40's and the 60's which only gain popularity now because of the mainstream media's endgame demonization of conservative opinion. It's an effort to vilify the internet itself in order to silence Conservative grassroots opposition on Twitter and Facebook because liberals have no ground to stand on until they invade your home then change the locks.

The FCC should "carefully consider the full range of consequences that government action may have on network investment."

The net neutrality rules could slow investments in broadband and slow minorities' access to telemedicine, distance learning and other services, the letter said.

Net neutrality advocates said they were concerned that members of Congress and minority groups were buying into false claims by broadband providers.

“Buying into false claims,” so telecoms lie as long as minorities are stupid enough to fall for it. I'm glad they're here to tell us these things while hiding behind Obama telling minorities they're wrong. Hey y'all it's blackface.

So no, the problem is not the red-state bitter-clinger Christian types obstructive against socialist priorities, only the thin-skinned sellouts like Barack who 'impose Net Neutrality' through arcane regulation as a Marxist alternative to segregation. As a form of reparations to almighty Obama should Blue Dogs or the Black Caucus start calling themselves deaf monkeys because their constituency from poor neighborhoods can't afford FCC mandated broadband and wireless?

1994 Calling

"If bandwidth is disproportionately consumed by those who can pay, it would destroy the Internet as a level playing field," said Ben Scott, policy director for the public interest group Free Press.

One question is how much flexibility broadband providers should have to keep their networks running smoothly by ensuring that high-bandwidth applications such as YouTube videos don't hog too much capacity and impede other traffic like e-mail and online searches. In other words, when does legitimate network management cross the line to become discrimination?

When for example the telecoms should be able to return on their investment then invest into more innovation. Profit is always considered discriminating against the poor when in reality the free market is the only proven method capable of job creation which in turn eliminates poverty.

Broadband providers such as AT&T Inc., Verizon Communications Inc. and Comcast Corp. argue that after pouring billions of dollars into their networks, they should be able to operate those networks as they see fit. That includes offering premium services over their lines to differentiate themselves from competitors and earn a healthy return on their investments.

It seems a “level playing field” which is the left's code for universal poverty, may be the future of the internet if the Associated Press wants to keep up the communist propaganda making it too difficult for everyday users to find actual unbiased information. Net Neutrality keeps telecoms undervalue by degrading the capacity of the internet as a medium for communications, independent media and free market entrepreneurship, mediums otherwise known as You Tube, eBay or Twitter.

The government can't establish the need for free flow of information and services or the necessity of innovation, often mischaracterized as “greed.” Government is powerless to establish a viable marketplace because the government is always preaching to the people they are terrible unwashed masses who are deserving of their institutionalized poverty because not enough people believe in climate control or whatever juvenile disaster of the week.

So many Americans mistrust their government because bureaucracy is a starved cannibalistic beast fearful of abolishment which must inevitability lend itself to the pastime of consuming our infinitely marketable sovereign rights of freedom and independence. An even playing field is the ultimate lack of compassion and discrimination against the poor. Whom better to serve the marketplace of liberty, innovation decisive in its quest to provide internet access with a variety of competitive connection plans, or Obama and his carnivorous "public options" poverty campaign?



Democrats Pushing Hard for 'Net Neutrality'

Eat It

SURPRISE, Ariz. — An Arizona sheriff known for cracking down on people who are in the country illegally launched a crime and immigration sweep in northwestern metro Phoenix on Friday, a half day after officials in Washington limited his powers to make federal immigration arrests.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, whose sweeps have led to allegations of racial profiling, said the rebuff from Washington won't stop him. He said he can still arrest immigrants under a state smuggling law and a federal law that gives all local police agencies more limited power to detain suspected illegal immigrants.

Decline Is a Choice
The New Liberalism and the end of American ascendancy.

The Obama administration really needs to get over itself.
1. Since the founding of the republic, media outlets (the founders dismissed them as "damnable periodicals") have been partisan.
2. Presidents are supposed to rise above their own partisanship and engage with a wide range of media -- even outlets that are hard on their administrations.
3. The worst mistake a president or his administration can make is to try and "whip" relatively like-minded writers and reporters into line.



But let there be no change by usurpation; ... it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed.

Drugged up AQ or Taliban ignore the bullets.

WASHINGTON — In the chaos of an early morning assault on a remote U.S. outpost in eastern Afghanistan, Staff Sgt. Erich Phillips' M4 carbine quit firing as militant forces surrounded the base. The machine gun he grabbed after tossing the rifle aside didn't work either.

Michael Yon has the scoop on any number of additional equipment and/or morale failures: Prosser shot the man at least four times with his M4 rifle. But the American M4 rifles are weak - after Prosser landed three nearly point blank shots in the man’s abdomen, splattering a testicle with a fourth, the man just staggered back, regrouped and tried to shoot Prosser.

Then Prosser’s M4 went “black” (no more bullets). A shooter inside was also having problems with his pistol, but there was no time to reload. Prosser threw down his empty M4, ran into the shop and tackled the man.

Obviously they need 6.5 mm Grendel as standard ammunition. Either that or more damn troops with grenades or larger heavy weapons and air cover.

White House Declares War on American People

"Let's not pretend they're a news network," White House communications director Anita Dunn said on CNN's "Reliable Sources," firing the latest salvo in the long-simmering feud.

"Fox News often operates almost as either the research arm or the communications arm of the Republican Party," Dunn said.

Nobody wants to mess with Barack yet at the same time we are increasingly forced down that path between Barack and a hard place. That's a byproduct of third-world countries with desperate impoverished populations handed over to greed and drug importing economies. Places like Mexico and Afghanistan where Barack's foreign policy has stalled out trapping the rest of us in dangerous situations where we don't want to be.

In the United States you get voted out or thrown out because nobody wants to be in that filth. Democrats know that so they try and tear down the walls shielding us from the scum of the universe as fast as they can before internet media can digest the impact of their actions. But nobody's going to put up with liberalism anymore, not after this war on Fox News. Because arguing against facts to get on TV and basking in hollowed rewards means nothing. Liberalism in this battle had failed before it had begun to seduce anybody.

Hey ya'll, only Barack can be Barack:

....much like an empty suit on a damn fool with a bureaucracy too big to fail can do nothing.

"So, with all due respect to anyone who still might be confused about the difference between news reporting and vibrant opinion," Clemente said, "my suggestion would be to talk about the stories and the facts rather than attack the messenger which, over time, has never worked."

Two More Words for Ya

The soldiers also had trouble with their M249 machine guns, a larger weapon than the M4 that can shoot up to 750 rounds per minute.

"My weapon was overheating," McKaig said, according to Cubbison's report. "I had shot about 12 magazines by this point already and it had only been about a half hour or so into the fight. I couldn't charge my weapon and put another round in because it was too hot, so I got mad and threw my weapon down."

MOTHER FRAKKING AIR SUPPORT?!?


No upgrade or weapons replacement is going to help you out of an assault, only more firepower and troops and especially since the M249 is not due for any operational changes. Obama dragging his @$$ across the globe doesn't help either.

Meth Labs Making Comeback

Meth labs making comeback
Narcotics agents came down hard on the drug-making organizations, so the labs were moved south of the border, Garcia said. And for the past decade, organizations have primarily manufactured in Mexico and smuggled drugs across the border.

But law enforcement in Mexico recently began to regulate better the sale of meth precursor chemicals such as pseudoephedrine and ephedrine.

BULL####! Regulation of over the counter medication has done nothing but inconvenience everyday consumers who are not drug dealers. Why should I have to suffer increased prices, limited availability or have to check out under the pharmacy camera just to buy 15 sinus pills? If law enforcement had the balls to kill the actual bad guys instead of taping off low income neighborhoods all of our lives would be a lot better. Yet as it stands lawmakers and policy wonks are looking to make a cheap buck off the union endorsement. Read the dues payers in the comments, I don't want to live in this filth!

Its political system is locked in paralysis and the two-term rule of former movie star Arnold Schwarzenegger is seen as a disaster – his approval ratings having sunk to levels that would make George W Bush blush. The crisis is so deep that Professor Kenneth Starr, who has written an acclaimed history of the state, recently declared: "California is on the verge of becoming the first failed state in America."



KABUL (Reuters) – Insurgents stormed remote outposts in eastern Afghanistan killing eight Americans in the deadliest battle in more than a year near the border with Pakistan, the U.S. military said Sunday. Ten US soldiers killed in Afghanistan

Barack can display all the pageantry he wants but losing the Olympic bid is not a satisfactory distraction from his leadership failure on the Afghani and economic fronts.

Lawful Evil

The proponents of Net neutrality say it's necessary for a free and open Internet, but history doesn't support that argument. The Telecommunications Act of 1996, for example, was supposed to bolster competition. Instead, by compelling companies to share their infrastructures, it reduced incentives for improvement. In the long run, it failed.
