Idiots Quote Famous People (I am an Idiot)

"That's not why I pray, Harry. I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God, it changes me."
- Anthony Hopkins from the stageplay and screenplay by William Nicholson, Shadowlands, 1993

"I call on Washington today. I call on every man and woman of good will all over America today. I call on the young men of America who must make a choice today to take a stand on this issue. Tomorrow may be too late. The book may close. And don't let anybody make you think that God chose America as his divine, messianic force to be a sort of policeman of the whole world."
-Martin Luther King Jr. April 30, 1967

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."
- President Dwight D. Eisenhower (Republican) and 4 Star General

"In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they do not have a real enemy, they will invent one in order to mobilize us."
-Thich Nhat Hanh

"Remember, Jesus was on Eighth Avenue with the prostitutes. He wasn't uptown or in Washington, D.C."
- Martin Scorsese

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts."
-Mark Twain

"In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth."
- Mahatma Gandhi

Net-Neutrality

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 01:21:00 +0000

"Under no circumstances should we use taxpayer money to fund high-speed Internet networks that aren’t open and neutral. This is our money and it should be used to build a better Internet for everyone."

Sign the Petition

Buried deep in President Barack Obama's economic stimulus package is a line that should bring a smile to your face.

It says that billions of dollars must be spent to connect Americans to Internet services that meet "nondiscrimination and network interconnection obligations."

What does that mean? It means that we have won a key battle in our fight for Net Neutrality. The government must now demand that this money -- your money -- is spent the right way: on projects that abide by Net Neutrality principles.

But get this: Just as Washington is deciding to spend your tax dollars to connect millions of people to an open Internet, high-priced phone and cable company lobbyists are swooping in to change the rules, scrap the Net Neutrality requirements and stamp out consumer choice.

Tell Washington: Don’t Listen to the Lobbyists. Use Our Money for an Open Internet.

The agencies in charge of spending your money on broadband are convening public meetings to hear ideas from ordinary people. But the first meeting, held last week in Washington, was "packed to the rafters" with industry lobbyists. They created such noise at the event that public voices are in danger of being drowned out.

The final meeting is next week, on March 24. Please join thousands of other Net Neutrality supporters and sign the petition. Free Press will deliver your petitions in person at the final meeting. We promise to let our public officials know that Americans are counting on them to make sure our money only goes to build open, neutral Internet projects.

The petition says: "Under no circumstances should we use taxpayer money to fund high-speed Internet projects that aren’t open and neutral. This is our money, and it should be used to build a better Internet for everyone."

After you add your name, please forward this petition to friends and family to make sure we're heard.

We’ve proven that Washington can’t ignore us when we take action together. We have only one week to deliver this message, so please act now.

Thank you,

Timothy Karr
