WAKE UP GUYS! WAKE UP YOUR NEIGHBORS! YOUR FRIENDS! HITLER IS BURNING THE BOOKS!

Is it possible? Is Barack Hussein Obama actually attempting to take control of your Internet? According to House Minority Leader John Boehner and a number of other sources, the answer is an unqualified "yes."  In fact, Boehner recently came right out and accused the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of pursuing a "government takeover of the Internet." Specifically Boehner said that the FCC is engaging in an action that "amounts to a government takeover of the Internet... yet another government takeover of a large portion of the private sector by the Obama administration."  Boehner added that "under this job-killing big government scheme, the Obama administration is seeking to expand the power of the federal government." And Boehner is already calling on his fellow members of Congress to "act to reverse this unnecessary federal government power grab."  Can you imagine what would happen if we were REQUIRED... UNDER PENALTY OF LAW... to "balance" the information we send your way with the spin and propaganda of the Obama Administration?

Well... that's exactly what Barack Hussein Obama wants. He believes if he can silence us... he can silence you... in fact, this attempt to take over your Internet has been going on, under the radar for some time now.

Recently, the effort suffered a major setback when the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals put up a road block to the plan. Fox News' Phil Kerpen reported: "That effort suffered a major setback when the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals emphatically smacked down the FCC’s regulatory proposals in Comcast v. FCC."  But Obama's not going to let the court get in his way. He's going to "go nuclear" and defy the courts.  Kerpen continued: "President Obama and his close friend and FCC chairman Julius Genachowski, however, refuse to back down. Instead they're escalating to the regulatory equivalent of a nuclear attack on the free-market Internet: Chairman Genachowski will announce today his intention to reclassify broadband Internet as an old-fashioned telephone system as a pretext for pervasive regulatory control."

The key phrase in Kerpen's report is "pretext for pervasive regulatory control." That means, once they have their foot in the door... once they have control, Obama and the FCC will go about instituting their own version of the "Fairness Doctrine" on the Internet.

According to RedState.org: "If the FCC is allowed to put the Internet in the US under those powers, then the Obama administration will have total power to tax Internet users, regulate content on Internet servers, and even institute price controls on Internet services."

In other words... they'll tax you for the privilege of deciding what you can and cannot see on the Internet (i.e. possibly the very alert you are reading at this very moment)... and they'll cripple and choke Internet providers and force them to bend to their will.

Of course, Obama and the FCC don't really have the authority to do what they are setting out to do (and they don't really care... damn the Congress... damn the courts... damn the American people... full speed ahead). 

Obama's FCC Chairman, Julius Genachowski may be the man who will attempt to implement this plan to takeover the Internet but there's more to this story.  One of the shadow organizations that is joined-at-the-hip to Genachowski and is driving this plan is a Marxist-run organization ironically called Free Press.

FOX News' Glenn Beck has already alerted his viewers to the plot: "Free Press has [had] three confirmed meetings now with Obama's FCC to work on new Internet regulations.... The FCC chairman, not to be confused with the diversity 'czar' - this is the chairman of the FCC, Julius Genachowski - chose Free Press spokeswoman, Jen Howard, to be his press secretary."

In another venue, Beck said: "The FCC is being inundated by a special interest group ironically named Free Press, whose goal it is to limit America's free press and freedom of speech. This special interest group also claims that it's due to special interest groups that it has become necessary for them to intervene on our behalf."

Newsbuster.org also addressed what is going on behind the scenes: "The groundwork for government information totalitarianism - favored by people like Hugo Chavez- loving FCC 'Diversity Czar' Mark Lloyd and Marxist 'media reform'-outfit Free Press founder Robert McChesney - is being laid in the Plan being crafted by FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski."

And just in case you may still doubt the motives of the folks creating this plan, consider some of the past comments of the man-behind-the-curtain, Free Press' founder Robert McChesney:  "Any serious effort to reform the media system would have to necessarily be part of a revolutionary program to overthrow the capitalist system itself." "There is no real answer but to remove brick by brick the capitalist system itself, rebuilding the entire society on socialist principles." "We need to do whatever we can to limit capitalist propaganda, regulate it, minimalize it and perhaps even eliminate it."  “At the moment, the battle over network neutrality is not to completely eliminate the telephone and cable companies. We are not at that point yet. But the ultimate goal is to get rid of the media capitalists in the phone and cable companies and to divest them from control.” Convinced yet?  --  by Floyd Brown
