the great thing is ... liberals might have an equal playing field to get our ideas out. Conservatives have had the MSM for a long time.

But I had fun correcting conservatives today about how they can continue to hate President Obama online, despite him being the same guy who defended their right to do so given the threat from Big Telecom.

By the time I explained to them how the FCC victory enables equality of opportunity for all of us (especially small business taking on major corporations in the marketplace), how it bolsters competition, and how our freedom to access information remains the same, conservatives' heads were a-splodin' as to why there's nothing more American than Net Neutrality and a president who supported their online freedom of expression.

Some brain chunks of theirs are probably still clinging to ceilings.
