This PoS scumbag Martin was Cheney's ball-licker advisor - his wife, Cathie Martin is the former Communications Director of Cheney (testified in the "Scooter" Libby perjury trial), a good friend of Bush counselor Dan Bartlett, another worm-like life form.... it seems these spineless worms like each others' company... similis simile gaudet, I guess.

Federal rules should forever prohibit a FCC Commissioner from taking a job with the companies they regulated.
I bet that has a very narrow interpretation. Consultation groups and telco think tanks aren't regulated by the FCC.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21078425 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 20:20:31 EDT Re: W T F ....

Maybe without any curse words (please), could you perhaps explain what you mean by, "[Kevin Martin] will be in jail, I guarantee you - too many people got (?) by the Best Boy of Cheney."

Why will he be in jail?
Is Martin the Best Boy of Cheney, or are you referring to someone else?

Assume little prior knowledge.

Thanks

It's good for consumers in that when Martin is done he'll get a big Telco consulting job.
Actually federal rules prohibit Martin from taking a job with those he regulated for at least a year. And by that time he will be running for office in NC for a state or congressional office to start off his career as an elected politician instead of an appointed one.
Hahahaha, by that time he will be in jail, I guarantee you - too many people got pissed by the Best Boy of Cheney.

OTOH who the fuck would vote for such an utterly corrupt unscrupulous PoS scumbag like Martin anyway?

The only positive way I can think about this is that Martin's still trying to level the playing field between TelCos and CableCos -- where CableCos generally don't need to report this information and TelCos do.
The CableCos do have to report this customer service information though if the governing franchise agreement requires it. It is one of the few regulations that applies to bundled services as well as video services. (It's not the exact same information, but it is very similar.)

If that's Martin's thinking, then the problem with it is that adding one competitor (and at that, only in some areas) to a monopoly does not bring the robust, competitive, self-regulating marketplace necessary to protect consumers.

Eliminating a consumer protection regulation because there actually are sufficient checks and balances is fine with me. Eliminating a consumer protection regulation because they're pretending that there are sufficient checks and balances is bad.
