Tauzin Changes Tone on Do-Not-Call List

Posted by timothy on from the ring-ring dept.

rhwalker22 writes "In YRO, you've got a prominent discussion about a Washington Post report that Rep. Billy Tauzin (R-La.) was moving to kill the FTC's do-not-call list program. You should feature The Post's Jan. 9 follow-up, which reported: "Amid a strong show of congressional support for a government program to curb unsolicited calls, a key House committee chairman yesterday dropped his opposition to a Federal Trade Commission request for quick funding for a national do-not-call list.""

    I wonder if this involved a roll of duct tape, a buffalo, live or stuffed, preferably stuffed, for safety reasons, and $240 worth of puddin?
