This line about made me blink : "AT&T, Comcast, Time Warner, and Verizon spent $230.9 million on politicians from 1998 until the present, while Amazon, eBay, Google, Microsoft and Yahoo spent only a combined $71.2 million. (Those figures<http://news.com.com/Chart+Political+contributions/2009-1028_3-6050978.html?tag=nl>include lobbying expenditures, individual contributions, political action committees and soft money.)"
After this, nothing absurd or ridiculous from washington can really surprise me. I can now just expect it.
