Urgent: Tell Your Senator to Overturn FCC’s Net Neutrality Internet Power Grab
Big Government ^ | November 8th | Seton Motley

Posted on 11/11/2011 7:48:49 AM PST by Halfmanhalfamazing

From most appearances, the Senate will this week vote on Senate Joint Resolution (S.J.Res) 6 – the Congressional Review Act Resolution of Disapproval of the Obama Administration Federal Communications Commission (FCC)’s illegal Internet Net Neutrality power grab.

Only 51 votes are required for passage – which means only 4 Democrats are needed. There are 23 Democrat Senate seats up for reelection next year. A few of these folks aren’t running. The rest are – many in center or center-right states. Additionally, there are a few other Senators that should also be subject to Constitutional reason, and thusly contacted.

Behold a list below the fold of some of these Senators and their contact information. Reach out and tell them to vote Yes on S.J.Res 6. Also tweet it all out using the hashtag #freethenet.

Calling this effort to stifle ALL opposition to Progressive/Marxist ideology "Net Neutrality" is total B.S.

The State-Run-Media is losing its grip on the majority of thinking people, and the Internet now is threatening the control of the truth getting widely circulated. This MUST be stopped to keep the Socialist/Marxist Agenda moving forward, just as the attempts to stifle Talk Radio.

The Country needs a do-over, with hangings for Treason, Corruption of the State, and removal of the Leftists from the airwaves.

Excuse me. It didn’t pass. The senate has re-affirmed net neutrality. I used the wrong wording, sorry. Here’s an actual headline.

Senate votes to retain net neutrality regulations

It’s too bad there wasn’t more noise about this a few days ago.

Naturally, the media don’t say word one about what’s going on, so all these things get passed in the shadows.

Sure they’ll report on it afterwards. When it’s too late.

The Control Freaks (Communist, Marxist, Socialist, Progressives and Liberals) have been trying to control the information Internet for a long time.

Of course the Media and Press are all for it since the Internet has exposed these Rats.

They’ll be sending us to re-education camps if they can successfully shut down what’s realistically the only opposition media in America.

Who would report on it then? Nobody.

Agreed! However, why do I have the perpetual feeling that we are not using our information assets to their best effect? There are multiple voices, somewhat coordinated,but they only reach the already converted. The best thing that I have seen since Obozo ascended was/is an advertisment running on MSNBC making the case against Fast & Furious. Granted it only reaches their tiny audience, but at least it is carrying the truth to the idiots! We need more of the same on all the alphabet network.

This is how I would put it:
"We have a small dispute with the costs of Internet hubs and we at the government are here to help"

Too early. The socialist Dems own the Senate.

Wait until the GOP re-takes the Senate and keeps the House, then DEMAND they overturn net neutrality. It is hard enough to get the GOP to represent us. You know the Dems won’t change this no matter how loud you scream.

Wait until the GOP retakes the Senate and them bury them with our demands.
