I don’t get it. Net neutrality is essential for freedom loving people including and especially tea party folks and Libertarians.

Net neutrality means the phone/cable company have to stay neutral about the content they are carrying.

In other words, net neutrality means IT IS NOBODY’S BUSINESS what I do on the Internet. The phone/cable company should not be able to monitor the web sites I visit. Period. End of story.

Net neutrality is essential for a free future for Americans. C’mon Fox, you are on the wrong site of the issue!

Kenbo, You are a prime example of a person who places more importance on ratings and being divisive rather than being correct and rational. If you’re going to disagree with anything on this site, try to debate it. Instead, you’ve posted numerous comments that are factually questionable, at best. You have done nothing but be childish with your name calling and ignorant with your accusations. You’ve done a terrific job representing a Fox News fan! Well done!

It seems the more you boycott Glenn Beck, the more popular he becomes, so keep it up, please!! Same for Fox, the more you DemocRAT/Libtards complain about them, the more popular they become. They are the #1 Cable News Network bar none!!!

This is one of the few points I’ll agree with you on; net neutrality is about preventing ISP’s from throttling content.

Ben, I addressed your points, but if you can’t take someone pointing out the fallacies in your comments, don’t comment. You’re full of ‘em. How many more tangents and smoke screens do you have up your sleeve? Do you need an award? A cookie?

The point has nothing to do with MSNBC – Do you see that in the site’s name? No. I’m sure I’ve had to tell you that before and it probably won’t be the last time…

There’s over 450 posts on this site, one of which is about a typo (off topic for these comments), and you pick that out & try to use that against me? That’s just pathetic. And if you want to point out a typo and chuckle about it like a child, that’s your prerogative. If you want to point it out and be helpful, be my guest. I looked and found only one unintentional spelling error on the front page. But there’s a difference – FoxNews.com is a global “news” network web site & this is a blog. If you can’t tell the difference, either I should be honored, or reserve my time for adults.

Do you even bother to read what you’re supposed to be responding to? When you can’t respond intelligently to an argument, you throw up some smoke screen of “straw man” or “that’s a generalization” The point is YOUR HYPOCRISY on almost all of these subjects. If MSNBC lies, that’s of no import to you at all, but if you see anything on Fox, from typos to differing opinions, then “Holy crap!!! Call out the ‘thought police’ and let’s shut down all dissenting opinion!!!” Keep up the Saul Alinsky strategy though. Your pre-programmed responses are so predictable it’s laughable.

By the way, if you’re going to pick on other people’s typos, you really need to pay more attention to your own production. You’ve got a pretty big one on the front page right now… how embarrassing.

Ben, 1) Wikipedia definitions are not law – nobody is claiming that – and Net Neutrality is not law yet either, 2) Wikipedia does provide a definition of what Net Neutrality is, 3) I provided two definitions, 4) don’t visit the site – I couldn’t care less, 5) “your buddies” is a speculative generalization, 6) Net Neutrality is nothing like the Fairness Doctrine, and has more to do with fewer limitations on Internet use, 7) Nothing on this site, nor anything I’ve said, has anything to do with Obama vs. McCain, so that’s just another straw man argument.

If we can’t agree that the Wikipedia definition of any given term is not Law, then it’s not worth visiting your site any more. I’m sure you’ve screamed “slippery slope” many times in the past. Take for instance the Patriot Act when your buddies were all apoplectic over wire tapping because W might want to spy on their cookie recipes. My point is that you would hold that argument up as completely viable, while when I don’t want the equivalent of the fairness doctrine added to the internet, that’s just “crazy talk.” The most fair way to judge an argument like this is to see how you would feel about the same law/policy if the shoe were on the other foot. You’d be screaming bloody murder over 90% of the stuff Obama is doing if it were McCain doing it instead. And keep in mind, that it may not be 2010, it may not be 2012, but eventually, the shoe WILL be on the other foot, and everything you’re pushing for now will be heaped on you, and your kids. Then we’ll see how you feel…
