[…] It’s never been easier to get the green thumbs involved, but you hear nary a peep on planet safety from the Party leadership. Recent violent rape cases have ripped at the myth that race is no longer an issue, but who from the Democrats has had the guts to speak up about it? The internet is being stolen out from under us, but no strong Democratic campaign has been mobilized against this theft. […]

I am so tired of being sold out by bastards trying to make money that I can hardly read the news. It is a sad commentary on our system and on humanity in general that people in positions of trust betray us for money routinely. I should say that they betray us for “more” money.

Someone should tell those genius Democrats that Republican-controlled telecom companies could easily make it harder for voters to access Democrat websites if this becomes law.

I swear to god, politicians suck.

So now what, Friends. We need to get out there and defeat some rethuglicans. Especially the people who voted for this abomination. Also, any lawyers out there, seems to me that anyone who has internet has standing to sue. Lemmie see….shall we start with AT and T

To follow up on the post, we lost the vote on the Markey Amendment today. But we got 22 votes, more than could have possibly been expected at this time last week (Repub Heather Wilson even crossed party lines to vote with us). Bobby Rush was among the 5 Dem turncoats.

It’s clear that the telcos wanted to enact this under cover of darkness, the way everything else typically gets done in DC. But they messed with the ultimate sunshine generator. Let’s keep the pressure on and preserve Internet freedom.

Any son of a bitch that votes for this should be recalled. Is this feasible. Let them have to spend their graft money fighting it.

EPU — I LUV me some News Radio. And the loss of Phil Hartman is still a blow — he was a one of a kind comic, and he and Dave Foley rocked that show. (Well, the guy who played the boss whose name escapes me at the moment was pretty damn good, too…Stephen Root, maybe?)

zennurse– I have been away from my computer since my comment about the NSA domestic spying bills being voted on in the Senate tomorrow. Has there been more discussion of that since then, or do I need to repost the information for current readers?

Zennurse - Kazuza (spelling is probably variable). News Radio was one of the greatest tv shows of all time, and my personal favorite (why it is not on DVD is beyond me, although A&E once said they were gonna have it).

Anyway, there was an episode in which Bill (Phil Hartman) was hired to read ads for malt liqour. The copy for the ad was in an “urban” (i.e. Black) syntax, and Bill read it with an “urban” (i.e. Black) accent. Katherine (Khandi Alexander) was offended by the ad, so, to screw with him, she told him that no Black person talks like in the ad, but that Black’s greet each other by saying Kazuza.

It is a greeting I often use.

Perhaps too much information.
