Re: LOL - This is funny

That't not true. There's Republicans he's pissed off too. They wanted him investigated as well. Martin sucked. Course the Big Telco's loved him, since he did everything they wanted. The biggest sham of all was the great Auction of the spectrum, which came out pretty much as expected, with the big players locking down their monopoly power with spectrum gains.

The door can't hit this guy fast enough on the way out... and trying to make it look like just a partisan political attack isn't correct.

There were Republican's on the committee, but they didn't craft the report. It was a report done by the Dem Committee chairman's staff. If the report was bipartisan, the ranking member's staff would also have taken part.

I'm no great fan of Martin, as can be seen in many of my posts. But this report was a 1 sided hatchet job done for political reasons.

So you disagree with the Report then. I don't. In fact I think it was anything but a hatchet job... if anything it didn't cut deeply enough. Martin's earned far worse criticism then this.

Yeah I don't know. In a functional Democracy you'd think even just manipulating and/or omitting data to fool Congress (clearly evident by the BPL situation long before this report surfaced) would warrant a nice whack with a blackjack...

Problem with that statement is that your assuming congress would have the brains to correctly interpret the information. Watching Congress these days (both dems and repubs)is like trying watch our former President Clinton explain what the meaning of "is" is! With this atmosphere, that blackjack should be used 24/7!

Solid point. They could be given correct information and still make borderline insane interpretations....
