To Attack the Internet, Obama Admin is About to Lie About It. Again

Note: This first appeared in Red State.

The mostly regulation-free Internet has become a free speech, free market Xanadu.

So of course President Barack Obama and his Left want to regulate the daylight out of it. In their efforts to do so, they will spin any tale to try to engender any public support for new Web regulations.

For instance, the Barack Obama Administration is likely about to totally fabricate a U.S. mobile broadband assessment report. In which they will say that the unequivocally astounding success that is our Internet – is at best uncertain, if not an utter failure.

If any of this nonsense sounds familiar, it’s only because it is. In May 2011 we had this:

Which brings us to the looming annual broadband deployment report from the (Barack Obama Administration’s) Federal Communications Commission (FCC) (called the 706 Report).

In which they are going to again give U.S. broadband deployment a failing grade – just as they did last year.

Which is completely “DC Disingenuous.” In other words, the FCC is lying through its bureaucratic teeth.

We bet you weren’t aware that Internet access has for the last four years stunk on ice. That is, of course, because it hasn’t.

98% of Americans have access to wireline or mobile broadband, from cable companies, phone companies, satellite companies, wireless Internet access providers (WISPs) and from 3G or 4G mobile wireless providers.

Does all this access success beget commercial success? Indeed it does.

E-commerce sales accounted for 5.4 percent of the total $1.1 trillion retail sales in the final three months of 2012, representing the highest percentage since the Census Bureau started keeping track of online sales more than a decade ago.

And the Web’s free speech advancement has been, if possible, even more astonishing.

The Internet has made the First Amendment almost completely horizontal. Anyone, at virtually no cost, can publish their thoughts. Or collect the thoughts of themselves and others. Or find like-minded others to begin to gather together.

Online publishing has been a fundamental component of the break down of the Left’s news and media monopoly. The Genesis, Exodus and Deuteronomy of the conservative Tea Party – the greatest political rising of the last quarter century – has been on the Web.

If the Right is to succeed, the Internet must be their vorpal weapon. The Left currently has it all over them there – that must change.

Of course the President and the Left won’t wait around for the Right to figure it out. They’ll instead preemptively regulate the Net into oblivion. They’d like a return to the 1960s media monopoly status quo – that’s just the way it is. And they’ll say and do anything to reverse this remarkable free speech, free market progress.

Like issue serial ridiculous Web “assessment” reports.

Comment by Billy Bowlegs on February 26, 2013 at 9:21pm: Speaking about lieing, OBAMA lies about everything. He will disguise deriliction of duty as the CINC and lie about what the intent is.

5 Nuke Carriers lined up like during the attack on Pearl Harbor. YGTBSM.

Routine Maintenance/inspection. Routine my arse, he probably has a strike headed toward them. Or this is just one of his practice runs to train the STUPID Military Leadership to follow his one and only word.

Cut and Paste from An Email: Source unknown.

Maybe you were aware of this ... but just in case!!!

What is wrong with this picture?

The picture is of the five nuclear carriers... Just like Battleship Row, Pearl Harbor,
December 7, 1941.

This picture was taken the other day in Norfolk. The Obama Administration ordered 5 nuclear
carriers into harbor for "routine" (?) inspections. Heads of the Navy were flabbergasted by the
directive.

NORFOLK, VA. (February 8, 2013). The first time since WWII that five U.S. aircraft carriers
were docked together.

USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69), USS George H.W. Bush (CVN 77), USS Enterprise
(CVN 65), USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75), and USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) are all in
port at Naval Station Norfolk, Va., the world’s largest naval station.

Sources stated that this breached a long standing military protocol in the Navy meant to
avoid massive enemy strike on major US forces. (U.S. Navy photo by Chief Mass
Communication Specialist Ryan J. Courtade/Released)

Watch out America..... If there was ever ANOTHER real big false flag brewing....
this would be perfect for it.

This should be a call by Congress to Impeach OBAMA; or all of themselves. Either damned one will start the ball rolling.

Comment by Edward M. Plitt on February 26, 2013 at 4:36pm: Another fabricated Lie by Obama and his dishonest regime.

Comment by Carol G on February 26, 2013 at 3:37pm: Though it is off topic, Kate, I thank you for reminding everyone. I emailed both of my Senators this morning even though I am confident that they will vote against this nomination.

Hope lots of others will for Kate's advice.

Comment by Kate Bowe on February 26, 2013 at 3:18pm: For being off topic, I apologize. There are so many things going on that we discuss, we miss other things. I am concerned about Hagal becoming our next secretary of defense which will be a nightmare.

Immediate action needed: Tell the Senate to vote "no" on Hagel!
From Liberty Counsel Action alert@lcaction.cc
Today, the United States Senate will hold the cloture vote to end debate on Chuck Hagel, one of the most controversial nominees for Secretary of Defense in our nation’s history. No confirmed Secretary of Defense has ever received more than 3 “nay” votes – yet it is highly likely that Hagel could receive as many as 45!
Chuck Hagel is a divisive candidate nominated by President Obama – our divider in chief. Hagel has a history of ill-advised decisions. He has been apathetic toward Israel – and appeasing toward Iran and other pro-Muslim groups.
The cloture vote is scheduled to take place this afternoon – and the confirmation vote within the next 24 hours.
This is our last opportunity to tell our Senators to oppose Hagel.
That’s why today, America’s patriots need to rise up and stand against the Obama regime, into which Chuck Hagel will fit into nicely.

Please contact your senators by phone, or fax http://www.lcaction.cc/1670/offer.asp
(there is a cost) and send a message to Stop Hagel's conformation. If he is our secretary of defense there will be further catastrophe.

Comment by Chris Smith on February 26, 2013 at 2:39pm: Perhaps I'm missing something here, but how does a broadband distribution report equate to shutting down free internet? There's no correlation there. There certainly is a threat to our free internet, but trying to view it through this lens seems completely off the mark.

There is a real lobbying effort going on to fight CISPA, check it out: https://action.eff.org/o/9042/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=9048

Comment by Jo Gonzalez on February 26, 2013 at 1:04pm: Nothing the Obama Administration does will benefit the American People. Their nefarious plans, illegal, impeachment offenses, does not matter. The have thrown out the Constitution, and they are making up the Rules, as they go along. We must resist, expose, and inform the Public. The Internet has been a powerful tool for us, so therefore, they need control over it. We must hound our Lawmakers on this, as well as, the dozen other abuses of Liberty and Freedom. Right now the Internet is free, but a Dictatorial Government will do everything, they can to curtail Free Speech. Doing it by Regulation is simply a sophiticated manner of curtailing your Freedom.

Comment by Chaplain Michael Donohoe on February 26, 2013 at 12:18pm: Seriously, think about it, Obama is brilliant. He commits impeachable offences but if we impeach him we get Biden. At least Obama is calculated. Biden is an absolute lunatic.

Comment by John Smith on February 26, 2013 at 11:46am: LOL- another pipe dream that is swirling down the shhtter. The Genie is out of the bottle and has been for a long time.
