Many organizations use friendly sounding names to fool the public into supporting them. Were you fooled? Originally shared by Ole Olson Corporate America Strikes Back Against Net Neutrality Television Ads have begun to air coast to coast by a corporate front group called "Broadband for America" that inaccurately claims that the Title II regulations that will enshrine #NetNeutrality  are some type of government overreach.

Then he says he will not accept "NO" from Congress. King Obama needs to read a traditional history book and learn how our government has worked since Washington. They must teach something different in Indonesia about the functioning of the US Republic. BUT of course they teach something different about our government operation.
