SBC Promotes Texas Anti-Wireless Bill

rhythmx writes "Details of this bill have been previously covered on Slashdot. SBC has since put up TV ads and a website saying that our telecom laws need to be changed. From their propaganda, "The Texas legislature has the opportunity to modernize telecom regulation and promote innovation to finally reach our goals for new technologies and enhanced consumer benefits." They hardy even mention the bill itself, basically only that it is "Good for Texas -- Good for Texans." This bill has already passed through the House and is now in the Texas state Senate."

    We're Texans! We done damn know freedom, so let's vote as Texans to do this thing!

    While we're at it, let's vote for legalized prostitution! Texans always like a good romp in the sack, and by golly let's vote for this thing because we're Texan!

    And now, come to think about it, let's vote for legalized guns in the workplace! Texans always used to carry their guns to work, let's get together as Texans and rally together a huge Texan vote for this Texan-commonsense policy for Texas!

    YeeeHah!
