John McCain just doesn’t like net neutrality, and in order to show this McCain has introduced legislation that would effectively hand the keys to big business. Of course, as his campaign last year showed, John McCain barely understands what an Internet is, let alone give us the confidence that he knows how it should – or shouldn’t – be legislated.

    McCain’s level of ignorance on any number of issues is downright Dutch-esque.

    Internet, ha! The guy could barely even type. That’s hi-lar-i-ous.

    Can you believe that? Claims it was because of some kind of war injury or some such.

    Unbelievable.

    Is this why he’s showing up on the Sunday shows (again)?

    I liked when McCain (and Pailn!) supported Cap and Trade legislation, but when questioned on it, McCain said he didn’t want the Cap to be mandatory. The legacy of Ronaldus Magnus lives on!

    I just recently saw a show about the history of technology. They interviewed one of Tim Berners-Lee’s associates at CERN. What I didn’t realise was that there were about a dozen versions of the World Wide Web before this one took off, and it took off because it was free, according to the dude. So isn’t the internet nobodies to own?

    At least Al Gore had the “Al-gore-ithm” to make good his claim to Internet knowledge.
