SO funny! Thank *insert deity of choice in here* for Jon. It's quite scary that a Senator is putting out such incorrect information, and that people are expected to base a decision on that false information. Who appointed that idiot?

That idiot is so entrenched in congressional power seats that his home state wont vote the ancient bastard out.

Its a shame that we as Americans do not do anything about these people. The Supreme Court..doesnt matter. The President...really doesnt matter. What matters are these Congressional Boulders that cant get out or Senators that have been in office since Nixon. When will intelligent men and women take hold of these idiots in Washington and call them out on crap like this? I see this and I ashamed to be a citizen of this country.

But if by "tubes" he meant "connections which carry stuff from one place to another", how better would you analogise IP packet switching to a room full of people who don't understand computers?

He cited not getting an email until the next day...like it was being help up in a worldwide traffic jam. That's not "the internet," that's the service provider - ironically the same people who are backing Net Neutrality.

"tubes"? How about highways?

Maybe they sent it on Friday and he got it on Monday because he doesn't work on weekends and the thing didn't track him down, bag him and tag him and fling him across the hood if a car and drive him home? Sorry, I was thinking Vice-Presidentially for a moment there.

hee hee hee...so true, simplerich!

You know, sometimes... Sometimes i feel sorry for the american people.

Here's more about this Senator and his son:

I think Stewart said it best - "You don't know jack sh*t about the internet"

http://userfriendly.org has some pretty funny comics about this guy.

I like how entertainmentmajor is ashamed to be apart of this country over this. How about you get up and make a speech about it. In front of some of the most powerful people in this country who make decisions about your daily life. Kudos if you can!
