Re: Sigh.... said by sonicmerlin:"He was not as forthcoming with answers to some tough questions from Indiana Republican Congressman Steve Buyer. Buyer asked all the commissioners whether they supported exclusive handset deals, demanding a yes or no answer. Genashowski said it was more nuanced than that. "It does not lend itself to a yes or no, I apologize," said the chairman. Calling that a non-answer, the combative Buyer went down the line of the commissioners. Democrats Michael Copps and Mignon Clyburn echoed the chairman, while Republicans Robert McDowell and Meredith Attwell Baker were quick to say yes." Seriously? Do Republicans have souls? Or are they simply the nasty byproducts of corporate mergers? So republicans want to limit which handset they themselves and their friends and familes can get? I do not understand their logic. Ok I can sort of see them putting big business of "people" in general. Not that I agree wiht that idea. But when you take it to a personal level and you're willing to fuck over your wife and kids? Just WOW. |

 | It's outrageous that I can't go to my local diner and get a BigMac or a Whopper. There should be a congressional investigation! They don't waste enough tax dollars, they need to waste more. |

 | What about going to Lowes to buy Kobalt brand tools? Why can't I by Husky tools at Sears? Why can't I go to Ace Hardware and buy Craftsman? It really sucks you can't go buy a new Mustang at the local Toyota Dealership. |

Apples and oranges means you're comparing two different scenarios. |

 | It's a good thing that all other problems have been solved by our government and they are not down to petty things like some poor guy can't take his iPhone to any carrier he wants. |
