Implementation Of Barack Obama's Takeover Of The Internet Will Commence In A Matter Of Days!

You read that right. The details of Barack Obama's Internet Takeover were just published in the federal register, which means full implementation of this massive regulatory power grab will commence on June 12.

This story was in an email requesting a donation to the Center for Individual Freedom. I will try to give my readers just the story of "Socialism on the Internet."

A subheading to this story says, "Obama Moving To Outlaw Conservative Websites." The story goes on to say, "What Would You Say If Barack Obama Ordered Your Local AM Radio Station To Stop Broadcasting The Rush Limbaugh Show?" It seems to me that long term it is exactly what Obama the dictator wants to do.

If calling this un-American power grab by Barack Obama's FCC an "Internet Takeover" — which has been sold on an unsuspecting public as something called Net Neutrality — sounds a little far-fetched, then consider just one example of what is contained in the 400 pages of the Obama-FCC order.

Here's what the FCC says about First Amendment rights in Section 544: "The rules we adopt today do not curtail broadband providers' free speech rights. When engaged in broadband Internet access services, broadband providers are not speakers, but rather serve as conduits for the speech of others."

Okay... so here's a question: Do local AM radio stations not "serve as conduits for the speech of others." Come to think of it, is your radio not a "conduit" for the speech of others?

Now, let's be clear. This Obama-FCC order only applies to the Internet (at least for now), but the analogy should serve to illustrate EXACTLY what Barack Obama and the FCC are thinking when it comes to your First Amendment rights. Call it the Fairness Doctrine for the Internet.

Rush Limbaugh perhaps said it best: "[D]o you want the people who gave you ObamaCare running your Internet service? Do you want them in charge of what you can get and when you can get it and how much it's gonna cost you?"

This is an ongoing story of conservatives vs. big government.
