Another defeat for the Marxist - Free Conservative Speech is protected for another season !!!!!

The FCC does not have the authority to order "net neutrality" according to the D.C. Court of Appeals as per a decision released today. This is a huge -- we say HUGE -- victory for freedom of speech in America. The Marxist plan (and this extends back before Obama's election) was to silence conservative talk radio by requiring communication networks such as Comcast or FoxNews or local radio stations to offer equal time to all political views represented in any listening population. As per the decision reported in the article below, the Federal Appeals Court has decided that such a requirement cannot be ordered by the Federal Communications Commission.

If the Marxists are going to succeed in this, they will have to legislate it into existence and that fight could have a more negative impact on the Socialist Democrat Party than health care. For the time being, the Dems will have to content themselves with a very unpopular legislative process and/or stacking the Appeals Court system with Socialist judges over the course of time.

Here is the good news announcement post just 51 minutes ago:

WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that the Federal Communications Commission lacks the authority to require broadband providers to give equal treatment to all Internet traffic flowing over their networks.

The ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia is a big victory for Comcast Corp., the nation's largest cable company. It had challenged the FCC's authority to impose so-called "net neutrality" obligations on broadband providers.

The ruling also marks a serious setback for the FCC, which is trying to officially set net neutrality regulations. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski argues that such rules are needed to prevent phone and cable companies from using their control over Internet access to favor some online content and services over others.

So there you have it. Our point is this: if the FCC lacks the authority to force "net neutrality" on the Internet, surely it has no authority to limit talk radio. Again -- this is as good a piece of news as anything since before Obama's election.
