Obama Administration's Disdain for Constitutional Restraints Again on Display

The chairman of the FCC appears to be pushing forward with plans to implement net neutrality rules despite the fact that a federal court already ruled it does not have the power to do so. This administration's disregard for democracy and the United States Constitution is unbelievable.

Once Again Circumventing the Constitution

President Obama and his creepy administration that wants to control everything are again ignoring constitutional restraints on power. You may remember that the administration's "debt commission" was voted down by the Senate. The President's reaction, he just went right ahead and created it by executive order. Back in April, a federal appeals court ruled that the FCC did not have the authority to enact President Obama's "net neutrality" program. So what does the administration do? The FCC is now poised to reclassify the Internet as a public utility by calling it a telephone system in order to backdoor the program.
You cannot turn your back on this administration or they will slip the knife right in. They believe their ideas of social justice entitle them to unlimited power and the righteous duty to enact their ideas regardless of whatever restraints might stand in their way. President Obama believes he should have unfettered power over every aspect of life to ensure his vision of equality. If neither the courts nor the legislature are able to restrain the activities of the executive, constitutional safeguards are dead and liberty in this country is under serious threat.

Now This is Huge

The Federal Appeals Court in the District of Columbia has ruled that the FCC does not have the authority to dictate to private internet providers that all internet traffic be given equal treatment, paying or not. The so-called "net neutrality" idea is part of the whole social justice program (pogram?, no that's not a misspelling, look it up) the administration has been pushing. More important, however, is that we are now seeing the potential for courts to restrain this government which has grown out of control since Woodrow Wilson...OK, Teddy Roosevelt.

FCC Takes First Steps to Regulate Internet

The FCC is moving towards the "net neutrality" rule. Essentially, this is another anti-capitalist, social justice concept which takes away profit motive from the companies that built the infrastructure to bring you high speed bandwidth access to the internet. This is the first step towards content control, but even should it never go that far, if this eventually becomes a rule, we will have removed much of the incentive for the development of technology to bring the internet to people at faster speeds with greater content.
Congratulations, FCC!!! Morons. Luckily, unlike much of the programs the administration is attempting to institute, I think this one is relatively easily reversed as long as it doesn't go too far in the same manner the Fairness Doctrine was by Ronald Reagan.
