  • Free Market Competition (no, really)

    My solution? Require open access to network capacity & performance information so the consumer can make their own informed assessment prior to inking a contract with a wireless provider. Then market pressure would lead to price competition based on reality. The FCC and any state regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over utilities have the ...

  • Comment

    I think people are making this racial and when you break it down the only reason he is receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, is because he is black. What exactly has he done that is so great? That is the real question. After bringing up the school ordeal, Obama is receiving less support from children still in elementary & secondary school. The ...

  • Joe Wilson’s “You Lie!”

    At the heart of Rep. Wilson’s outburst is racism, pure and simple. When he, and some others, look at Obama, they see a black man, not POTUS. Barack Obama has always acted in a very dignified manner. He is not confrontational as was, say, FDR. He deserves our respect and civility. The attempts to de-legitimize his presidency are based ...

  • Hypocrisy and contradiction.

    Most religions passionately revere faith and commitment in their followers. However deep within the tenets of these religions there is also supposed to be a reverence for the follower who shuns all earthly wealth and possessions and devotes himself solely to the growth of the church and the spreading of the doctrine. If this were really true ...

  • One man treading in a sea of shortsighted politicians

    Obama, nor any other leader can fix anything, no matter what policies he wants to pass and whether a majority of Americans agree with it. What he can do, which it seems he is trying the best he can, is reach out to us to think outside the box of what we currently think is normal and comfortable. Even during his campaign for president, he said it ...

  • Want to ReBuild Your Airport? - CALL FRED TESTA

    The best artists solve problems with the fewest brushstrokes.

Fred Testa has proven himself and his abilities on significant Airport Projects, ...

  • bipartisanship to what end?

    But John, Aside from 'accomplishing something', what do you think of socializing American medicine? Why fall in line with the Washington idea that just passing something, anything, is productive and necessary? Thanks Shane

  • Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor -- Says Roe Is "Settled Law"

    All I need to know about today's U.S. Senate Nomination Hearing for Liberal New York City Feminist Sotomayor, is that she thinks the appalling pro-Abort ''Roe vs. Wade'' Supreme Court ''Decision'' of 1973, is ''Settled Law'' (her words.) Hispanic voters may be trending towards the Democratic Party side of the political ledger lately, and who ...
