means 'any entity that we want, not any entity that wants to'.

seemed cut and dry to me. any=any. some=some. select=select. now, the supreme court says 'any=select'? time to rewrite the dictionary.

Not quite. It means any entity that isn't an extension of the state itself. Local community governments are extensions of the state government. The ruling simply was that there is no reason that a state government cannot regulate itself. This therefore declares the inclusion of municipalities in the definition of the words "any entity" as being unconstitutional.

The states are allowed to legally regulate their own governments and the extensions of the state governments. It's common sense. You all just don't like it because you hate the Bells and the cable companies.

That's an assumption, at least regarding me. I don't hate them. I'm saddened to see alternatives stifled, but I don't have any particular animosity to the Bells. I haven't had cable in years, so I can't speak to their practices these days, other than what I read here.
