This is similar to the fossil fuel industry lobbying to limit funding for renewable energy projects.

These corporations are the enemies of the people of the United States. They have co-opted the democracy.

They should be condemned by every office holding Democrat from the president on down.

Mr. Obama, where is your condemnation of Verison, AT&T and Comcast? We want to hear it. You are the only one of us with a bully pulpit.
