Re: Disband this circus

"FCC is FAR from being non-politcal or even handed."

Really? You couldn't prove that by me and I have been around watching what they do for over 30 years.

"No, it used to be."

It still is. All one needs to do is actually go to the FCC website and rummage around, since they post their decisions and very detailed reasonings behind them, instead of having a hissy fit over what the FCC chairman says. Chairman powell said they would push BPL too, yet it hasn't happened. In fact, that initiative was stalled even before he left.

"Obviously the asking one never worked in such position if he dares to ask such a silly question - policy decisionas are ALWAYS made by the leaders, rest of the satff - the career personnel, the technical personnel etc - usually prepare and execute, that's it."

This is, perhaps, true in the corporate world. However, the FCC is not the corporate world. It is a technically oriented agency with a staff that has been around for decades, with a set of "commissioners" That serve 5 years at most, at the pleasure of the president.

Which means they change relitively rapidly and espouse the current stance of the executive, but, in the end, have little or no actual effect on what actually happens. It is the STAFF who make the actual rulings and decisions, as you would know if you actually bothered to go to their website and go below the fluffery.

"You better read the article first next time - there wasn't any "decision", merely an expression of the current state of mind of this @sshole. However it is obvious that it isn't hte right direction for the customers, even a 10ys old kid could tell you this."

The word decision in my post was used within the context of my post and did not referr to any specific decision of the FCC. Yes, we are talking about the opinion of the current chairman of the FCC here and you know he's an asshole....how? Do you know him personally, or, are you just upset because he disagrees with you and has a different viewpoint?

It might be "obvious" to you that it "isn't the right direction for the customers", but not so "obvious" to others who can actually think, know what they are talking about and who do not react to such thigs with emotional hysteronics.
You really make me laugh, kid. You're obviously soooo clueless on this that's just downright hilarious.
You're claiming you're watching FCC for 30 ys - though it's quite obvious from your utter lack of knowledge in your post you weren't more than a funny thought 30 ys ago - and you're claiming 'they are unbiased' and leaders are not setting policies? LOL.

Oh boy... at least read up on the subject before you post such arrogant silly crap like you did above - have you heard about Powell? I doubt it - here's a link, kid: »www.usatoday.com/money/companies···.htm[/b]

That's your daily rebuttal - you may want to drop your childish (should I say clueless?) idea about who's making POLICY decisions... suuuure, the staff make decisions, rrrrright...

I dont know if you are familliar with my previously stated definitions of a intellectually bankrupt mind, but I daresay your post comes close.
I'm really not familiar with *ANY* of your post, pal. You barely hit the 'reply-bar' here, believe me.
Of course this also means I really don't give a flying frog about your namecalling either.

Did it ever occur to you that there ARE actually people who know what they are talking about and who ARE able to actually think? If you're going to hang with the intellectuals, perhaps you should learn that skill?
Have you ever worked anywhere yet? I mean other than cleaning McDonalds?
I doubt it - otherwise you wouldn't claim such silly thing like FCC policies usually made by the staff... let me just call this utterly clueless post.
So much for your 'who know what they are talking about' - that's definitely not you, pal.
