AT&T CEO Attacks Network Neutrality

Verteiron writes "The former CEO of AT&T, Ed Whitacre, had some interesting remarks to make about Net Neutrality during his parting speech. Choice quotes include his plans for getting anti-neutrality legislation through: "Will Congress let us do it?" Whitacre asks his colleagues. "You bet they will — cuz we don't call it cashin' in. We call it 'deregulation.' " More information on AT&T's attitude problem and a video of the speech are available. There's no sign that his replacement is any better."

Re:Regulation may give more freedom

[speaker of the truth]

Your attempt to introduce race into this issue is unwarranted. Congressmen do not care what color someone's skin is, they merely care how much money the person has. A nigger's dollars are worth just as much as a white man's, the reason you might think congressmen prefer white men's money to nigger's is because there aren't as many rich niggers as the structure of society works against the poor becoming rich with the years of slavery and then further discrimination ensuring that most niggers were poor.

So do not make any mistake. A nigger can bribe a politician just as well as a white man, they simply need to have as much money as a white man.

You see... Claiming the 2nd amendment is in order to overthrow the government is just a joke. Not a single gun owner has the balls, it's just used as an excuse.I have a friend at work who always carried (Florida is even more crazy) and claimed it was for protection. He shut up the day I took his gun away when I shook his hands. He's been quiet now for over a year!

The 2nd amendment has become a HUGE joke, if this government isn't a 2nd amendment situation, not a single US government ever will be.
And while they run around with their guns, they continue to chant "USA #1! Ra ra ra ra" while the country is sliding faster and faster down all statistics and when you point that out, they only claim that the stats is wrong! yeah, This is such a dumb country!

We went into Europe twice in the early half of this century in order to prevent the exact thing we went into Iraq to accomplish. You can't use one to justify the other.
