Comcast and NBC-Universal (NBCU) have been waiting to merge for, well, ever. Or at least it seems that way. Mergers of this sort are supposed to be approved within 180 days of applying to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and
There was a cavalcade of Leftist – and media, please pardon the redundancy – politically opportunistic idiocy in response to this weekend’s horrendous Tucson, Arizona murders. Which were committed unilaterally and without any assistance from anyone by the deranged Jared
On Monday, I wrote here of how President Barack Obama would pretend to work in bipartisan cooperation with the new Congress in deference to the shellacking he received in the November election – while behind the scenes dictatorially ramming through
The November 2nd election results caused in Democrats several strains of mental illness – bouts of depression, delusion, deep-seated rage and others were all exhibited in various Donkey quarters. But going forward, the Obama Administration will exhibit a strategic psychosis
This is but the latest in Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Julius Genachowski’s ongoing terrible interpretation of his self-appointed role as Captain Transparency. As we have much discussed, the FCC has decided to power grab Internet authority on December 21st.
Network Neutrality is a metaphysically bad idea. But it remains a Leftist wish list item. So Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Don Quixote – I mean Julius Genachowski – is set to ram it down our throats on December 21st,
Affirmative action has always been a very bad bill of goods – sold (by force) as a remedy to our alleged inherent racial discrimination. Under this oppressive regime everyone everywhere is mandated to take race into account – to make
The news to be culled from this latest Federal Communications Commission (FCC) attempt to usurp Internet regulatory authority and impose Network Neutrality is – there really is no news. At least in the broadest – and most important – sense.
Just this past Friday, we warned you that a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) December Internet power grab was probably coming. Well, we now know that it is – and it may be even worse than we thought. Details have been

Will someone please get West Virginia Democrat Senator Jay Rockefeller and Texas Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee some Zicam? The afflicted Senator Rockefeller was chairing yesterday’s television retransmission hearings when his self-described “little bug” caused him to swerve off on a
Europe has of late become a place for We the People of the United States to begin in some ways to consider emulating – after decades of it being an economic and societal afterthought and punch line. The Barack Obama
What we’re witnessing in the south Texas (TX-27 – Corpus Christi and Brownsville) Congressional recount that followed the race is a dramatic interpretation of the old Rocky and Bullwinkle magic act. With 28-year just defeated Democrat incumbent Solomon Ortiz portraying
Network Neutrality (NN) is now decidedly, demonstrably unpopular – and unnecessary. If this were high school (and politics really sort of is), Net Neutrality would be sitting alone at lunch – shunned even by the members of the marching band
I sincerely hope followers of the Network Neutrality (NN) debate were wearing their seatbelts last week. The pro-NN Media Marxists’ rapid lurch in position on the issue would otherwise have ensured full chiropractor employment for a pronounced period of time.
At this point, it is understandable that the reaction of the Tea Party Movement – and most Americans – to ANY legislation coming out of THIS Congress would be not just “No,” but “Heck No” (pardon my French.) But despite
November 30th, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) could potentially engage in one of the largest federal power grabs we have ever seen. After two years of this Presidential Administration and this Congress, that is saying an awful lot about an
This preordained doomed attempt should NOT serve as an impetus for unilateral FCC action Last week gave us another piece of last minute, hurry-up and pass-it legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives – Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry

Oops. Massachusetts Democrat Senator John Kerry was his Party’s 2004 nominee for President. Two hallmarks of his losing campaign were his incredible stiffness – he managed to make 2000 Democrat nominee Al Gore look lively – and his notorious assertion
Yesterday Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Julius Genachowski issued a statement on Network Neutrality and Internet reclassification that is difficult to interpret in any way other than “I’m not interested in walking the Media Marxist Net Neutrality plank.” Chairman Genachowski
News broke just before the weekend that California Republican Senate candidate Carly Fiorina opposes the absurd notion known as Internet Network Neutrality (NN). “The principle sounds fantastic, but the principle is not the problem,” Fiorina said in an interview at
It’s last call at Club Network Neutrality. The crowd supporting this government Internet land grab is rapidly thinning. The latest two to head for the exits each deal a huge blow to the media “reform” cause – for different reasons.
And as with all Leftist things, the more they know the less they like On August 11, more than 150 organizations (including 35 TEA Party groups), state legislators and bloggers signed onto a pair of letters urging the Federal Communications
