Gas is $4 a gallon, we have troops in harm's way, food inflation is through the roof, we have 20 million illegals infesting our country, shouldn't Congress be wasting our time dealing with these more pressing matters instead of this BS? Maybe they should vote themselves another raise instead!

Maybe if we didn't invade a country that supplied our oil, spark more turmoil in the region, gas wouldnt have quadrupled under Bush's term. In 2000 it was 1 dollar a gallon. Now it's 4 to 5. Sure sure, I bet its the added world demand that magically made gas go up so high. There's also a major world demand for electronics, too. I see their prices falling, not rising. Even the Playstation 3 which had production problems didn't SHOOT UP in price. That argument doesn't fly with me. As for troops in harms way, see Bush's Former Press Secretary. He seems to think Bush was a Moron like the rest of the country for going to war. Even the Senate voted that Bush misrepresented the threat. So troops in harms way is this administration's fault, NOT OURS. As per the Dollar and Food inflation, maybe if the person RUNNING things had half a brain and could keep a staff, things wouldn't be so bad. We've spent 1 trillion on Iraq, BORROWED / ADDED 5 trillion to our national deficit, what'd you expect to happen? It devalues the dollar and shoots prices higher. Last, those illegal immigrants you speak of are ONLY HERE BECAUSE COMPANIES HIRE THEM. Don't blame them for seeking work. Hold those companies accountable and they wouldn't cross the border. You know, people don't go where they aren't needed. If you stopped said companies or fined them heavily for using illegal labor (made it not worth the benefit), then said migrants wouldn't bother to come. After all, it doesn't do them any good to be poor and without a job in either place, now does it?

So in summation PNH, we recognize that people like you are why we are suffering bad times. You vote on rhetoric and ignorance, and don't even look at the reasons for problems. Everything is everyone else's fault. We know, it's never the person who created the problem.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-FCC-Did-The-Right-Thing-20601034 Fri, 06 Jun 2008 11:34:42 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-FCC-Did-The-Right-Thing-20600838 said by pnh102:

XYZ "for families?" What kind of BS is this? Where is it listed in the Constitution that you have a right government-provided Internet? Does making it "for families" make it better?
