FCC loses lawsuit; consumers win

The DC Circuit Court of Appeals slapped the FCC today by ruling in Comcast v. FCC that the regulatory body overstepped its legal bounds when it tried to regulate Internet management practices. This precludes Net Neutrality regulation, which is at heart regulation of how ISPs manage their networks.

We saw the story in the NYT and on RedState.com, so we are linking to the latter:

It is a blow to the Administration’s efforts to regulate the Internet (invented by Al Gore, remember?), circumventing Congress and our constitution as they are with the EPA’s regulation of greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.

If even the overwhelmingly Democratic Congress won’t do it, this Administration will attempt to do their will thru regulations – limit our freedoms and liberties.

Gov. Perry, AG Abbott and Ag Commissioner Staples have sued the EPA challenging their authority to regulate greenhouse gases just as Texas has sued the federal government over its authority to force Americans to purchase health insurance under ObamaCare. It’s partisan politics at its worse.

Didn’t Obama say he didn’t see Red States, or Blue States, just the “United States”? He’s done everything he can to divide these United States.
