The most important political moment today
was not about Zarqawi. It was about the Internet, that thing that we've all taken for granted. And about the way AT&T wants to turn it into a giant shopping mall.

Well said, sir.
The fact that the majority of the House seemed eager to hand the keys over to AT&T et. al. is disturbing to say the least. Is it just a matter of the sort of money and clout and influence the telcos. have, or could it be that they have dirt on the congress/President, something to do with NSA wiretapping scandal, etc.? In and of itself the vote makes little sense (and comes off as elitist/shamefully pro-corporate to boot).
Well, there's always the Senate, I guess. Talking Points Memo has a nice rundown of where members of the Senate stand on Net Neutrality
