Sen. Ted Kennedy supports Net Neutrality


Keith Olbermann's comment on Bush 9/11/06



I did not watch any of the 9/11 TV specials. I remember and did not need to be reminded. The next day at Starbucks (a mostly Republican crowd there) someone said "I don't get why those New Yorkers can be so Liberal after that." I shot him a look that was probably missed and wanted to rip his face off, but also it really hurts me that people can honestly feel that way. Someone around me, in one of my groups could say such a thing with so much sincerity.
It implies that anyone (especially that lives in New York) is unpatriotic, unappreciative, and out-of-touch to want to criticize or question what and how things were done. To want to question our government is wrong. There are just so many arguments for this. Wasn't it right to question weapon of mass destruction, what Saddam Hussei had to do with 9/11?

Also from the local conversations that day, and the Keith Olbermann commentary that the TV special was pointing blame on Clinton when he was in office. When in fact, Clinton offered several anti-terrorist initiatives and his people had notedly passed on his terrorism concerns to just get blown off.

"Richard Clarke, former Director of Counter-Terrorism for the National Security Council, has worked on the terrorist threat for the Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, and Bush Jr. administrations, amassing a peerless resume in the field. He became a central figure in the commission investigating the September 11 attacks.
Clarke has laid bare an ugly truth: The administration of George W. Bush did not consider terrorism or the threat of al-Qaeda to be a priority prior to the attacks."

People should be able to question anything and everything and not be told they are anti-American for doing so.

I'm also concerned about net neutrality and to see where this goes. The Ted Kennedy video explains the issues pretty well.
