What a great idea :rolleyes:

President Obama will travel to Cedar Falls, Iowa, on Wednesday to tout the ability of local governments to provide high-speed Internet to their residents.

And he will urge the Federal Communications Commission to strike down state laws around the country that restrict the ability of cities to build their own broadband networks. The move is likely to draw fire from Republicans, who argue that states should be free to set their own policies—including restrictions on local governments.

Oh, you mean that same government that can just barely manage to run the post office, sometimes? Will the Internet be closed on Saturdays? ROTFLMAO!

More War - Check
Government Healthcare - Check
Amnesty - Check

And now they want to take away pretty much the only tool besides face to face communication to complain about it?

Hrrmm, maybe that V for Vendetta movie isn't to far off.

Obama backs government run "anything". Pretty soon Obamacare will prohibit people over the age of 50 from having sex to ward off the chance for a heart attack.

Or else he'll require it in order to kill off the expensive old geezers.
