Its a great debate! Net Neutrality is in The Senate!

UPDATE: Also, please contact Sen. Arlen Specter, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, and ask that he consider oversight on the legality of this issue. 202-224-4254

Please be calm, patient and professional - but use your voice to demand... Net Neutrality!!!

"He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent of Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers." Hello!

"He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty and perfidy... and totally unworthy of the Head of a civilized nation." (Bush's "coalition of the willing" shipped to the fabricated, costly, illegal invasion of a devastated Iraq).

"For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury." (Bush is seeking to federally handcuff both juries and judges in state tort-injury cases).
