If you consider yourself to be a right-wing, small government, libertarian or a conservative and find that you support Net Neutrality do me a favor. Take your right hand. Open your palm flat and then repeatedly smack the living piss out of yourself until you come to your senses.
Why?
Because even if you think the internet needs some form of regulation (which as a small government supporter you shouldn’t) then at least you should have enough common sense to know that the Obama administration is not the one you should be asking to do it.
Why? (Oh dear Lord in heaven if you really need to continue reading this because you don’t know, then you must have been asleep under a freaking bridge for the past 6 years right next to a troll named Rumpelstiltskin.)
Well I could say Obamacare (If you like your healthcare, you can keep your healthcare. Remember that one?), or take the time to point out all of the radical Marxists that Obama was raised by, mentored by, and associated with, but instead I think I’ll just type three little letters: I.R.S.
Do you, by some bizarre chance, remember the little IRS scandal? You know…the one where the Obama administration has been using the Internal Revenue Service in order to harass and persecute those of us on the political right? Yea, that one.
So what you say? How does that have anything to do with Net Neutrality especially since we don’t know what’s in it since the Obama administration is hiding their proposed regulation? (If you really did agree with this question then please repeat the instructions above pertaining to the open right hand and what to do with it.)
In what world, or dimension, do you actually believe that even though Obama has shown every indication he is not afraid of using entities of the Federal government to harass and persecute those of us who don’t agree with him, that by some bloody miracle he is actually only interested in making the internet more “free and fair” by regulating it (which has to be some form of an oxymoron) instead of actually using regulations to control the internet so he can silence the rest of us who oppose him by basically turning the FCC into the IRS via Net Neutrality??? (That wasn’t so much a run on sentence as it was me yelling through the keyboard in one breath.) WELL?????
Never mind. Your argument is invalid. President Obama is not, and has never ever shown signs of being interested in being equal and fair. He has only demonstrated time and again that he lies to get what he wants and what he wants 9 times out of 10 is more power and control.
So if you still support Net Neutrality, even though every fiber of your small government being should be screaming NO! Then all I can suggest is…
Take your right hand. Open it flat…
