Possibly the most useless Congress ever, the 109th, has finally ended. Seriously, could we have possibly had a more inept group of people running the country than the good old 109th? It seems that thee 109th was overrun with selfish representatives who may or may not have been elected by their constituents, and who hardly gave a shit what their constituents wanted from them.
Fortunately with the demiae of the 109th comes the demise of the anti-net neutrality bill which would have killed the Internet as we know it today. Check out an article on the demise of the bill here.

The sheer thought that the corrupt tycoons of the phone companies could control any aspect of the Internet is frightening. These are the same clown who brought you the CEO’s of World Com, Quest and Adelphia, who were so corrupt they looted their own companies.
The Internet saved itself from ruin. These yahoos will return with even more money to create the money-making monopoly they wanted. Exposing the victory for what it is now might help in the next round.
Let’s be ready for them the next time again.

Absolutely Bill, I completely agree with you. This is by no means the end of the attacks on our freedom (electronic and otherwise), and honestly I expect only marginally better results from the 110th. The forces that are at work fighting for their own evil selfish purposes have certainly not been stopped by something as minor as the recent Democratic victory.
Thanks for your comment, and for reading.
