Court Ruling Points Way To Broadband Regulation
DarkHelmet writes "An article on CNET News indicates: 'A U.S. appeals court has rejected the Federal Communications Commission's request to rehear a case, in a move that could prompt local governments to regulate the cable industry.' The piece explains: 'The rejection could pave the way for municipalities to force cable companies to share their broadband Internet lines with third parties.' I personally can't wait for companies like Speakeasy to branch into the Cable Internet market and provide 10-100mbps service."
I AM SO HAPPY!!

Ya man! What's hapenning? Whaz apaneeeg??!!!
I love it -- one AC asking another for proof of their wild-ass claim.
If all this should have a reason, we would be the last to know.
This is how it all started.
Bubble coming.
The American Association of Retired People issued a fartwad: the Gay Nigger Association of America in a Four Letter Acronym Assault today. Nicholas DILLIGAF, AARP spokesman, read the following: "Friends, Americans, Countrymen, lend me your ears. And a few bucks. An essential, God-given right of all Americans stands threatened by cretins of the GNAA ilk. That's right: Socialist Security is jeopardized by their existance. Now, anyone with two shreds of common sense can see that Socialist Security is a godforsaken ponzi scheme. Private citizens would be nailed to the wall for even trying such an audacious stunt. I guess being the government, you can just legalize it. What matters to you and me, though, is that, like any pyramid scheme, Socialist Security relies on continued population input. And that's why the GNAA, and all other outbursts of creeping faggotry have got to be stopped. If men continue to plant their seed where it cannot grow, who will feed the Socialist Security beast? We certainly cannot resurrect the family unit, and expect parents and children and relatives and communities to care for one another; we've got to make sure that the demolition of the family and all other outmoded values continues. Faggotry, in this sense, is an idea carried just a little too far. We want people to be heterosexual, and sew their wild oats with measured indiscrimination, so that we will continue to have a population input of people from properly disintegrated families to feed the Socialist Security machine. In summary, ignore the GNAA, knock up some chick, but don't worry about actually making a family of the situation, and ensure that Socialist Security continues to snowball beyond its current Real Hard Problem state and achieves the ultimate goal of Problem That Could Destroy America. Thank you for your attention. "

wtf are you getting at? Maybe I'm just drunk, and couldn't get past your first few paragraphs that were rather self contradicting. Asides from the fact that North Korea - yes the assholes devoloping nuculuare (I know my spelling sucks, sorry) weapons - are a much bigger threat. Asides from the fact that -they- (black helicopters - Bush and associates) used a horrible act that took many inoccent lives of people just GOING TO WORK as an excuse to stip OUR libertys away an thus VALITADING the "terroris" (not sympothetical - you got a problem with a government? kill soldiers - start an uprising, whatever, but people doing their job you do not know are NOT collateral damage). As a "rebublican", by definition of a conservative, I find the current occuptation an attempt at a regime. Stick your dick in your ear - the last thing we need is to follow the Romans, but ignorant assholes in charge are doing their best to use a horrible situation to do so. Lick me where I pee - sorry, but your a jackass.
