Idiot Of The Day – Ted ‘Calgary’ Cruz – Dumb Comment On Net Neutrality Cause Conservatives To Rage Against Him

cruz

After Senator Ted ‘Calgary’ Cruz sent out the above tweet, it didn’t take long for him to get some wonderfully vicious comments on his Facebook page from self-identifying conservatives no less!  Here’s just a tiny sample of some of it::

Ed Piper: As a Republican who works in the tech industry I can say that this statement shows you either have no idea what you are talking about or you are bought and paid for by the American Cable monopoly. This is amazingly an stupid statement and is disheartening.

Keith French: Ted, I am as conservative as they come.... I want government out of just about everything... and I hate to say it, really hate to say it, but Obama is right on this one. I do not want my access and internet speed controlled by my ISP. It will be. The internet has been an open forum with little to no restrictions, that will change and not for the better. Bottom line, do not go against freedom of the net just because Obama is for it. Even an old blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile.

Joey Camp: As a Republican whom also works in IT like Ed... You have no clue what you are talking about or you are company bought and paid for.

A Jinnie McManus: Goddammit, stop making my party look like morons and look up net neutrality. It doesn't mean what you and your speechwriters think it means.

James Nelson: Have to disagree with the Senator on this one. AT&T and big cable have proven they can't be trusted and net neutrality is necessary to keep fair competition. These big monopolies own their own competing streaming services and want nothing more than to be able to relegate competitors to an internet slow lane.

Marvin England: Ted Cruz, as a tech and fiscal conservative in Texas who generally votes Republican, I am incredibly disappointed by your completely inaccurate statement. Please read up on what Net Neutrality actually is and fire any staff you have who are advising you on technical matters.

Sam Adams: Senator Cruz, you are wrong on this one. As a conservative voter and IT professional, I can assure you that Net Neutrality is a GOOD THING. Internet providers (who are also content owners) can't be trusted (as has already been proven) to allow consumers equal access to content from their competitors. This is why the government needs to ensure Net Neutrality as it protects the consumer from the bias of their Internet provider. This is especially true since we don't have real competition in this space.

Adam Huzzey: Go find whatever rock you crawled out from under Ted and stay under it! Proud republican here, but not so proud to be blind like the good senator. Look how "great" our free market Internet is!!! I pay $100 a month for 15mbs / 100gb p/m capped Internet. Yep, those "free" markets really make it better lmao

David Vogelpohl: Texas employer here... This is really the wrong issue for you. Drop this quickly and move on to something else before it's too late. You're starting to look like a Tea Party whacko growling for his corporate masters…..Net neutrality is about ensuring a free market. America loves a free market. But hey, be against free markets and America. It's cool. I'm sure no one will think of you when their Netflix slows down who wouldn't have before

Jimmy Lee: Wow. I am embarrassed that I supported you Ted. Face palm. I think it's time that I "unlike" your FB page.

Dear-Senator-Ted-Cruz

When conservatives start calling Ted ‘Calgary’ Cruz a ‘wacko’ (which he is) then he’s definitely made a huge boo-boo!  It’s pretty clear to me that the idea of Net Neutrality and keeping the greedy telecoms and cable companies from destroying the Internet in the USA is truly a cause that both conservatives and liberals are getting behind. I hope the GOP politicians who are supporting the Big ISP’s will take note and re-think their support for these 21st Century Robber Barons.

Thanks for visiting!
