Sensenbrenner & Conyers : Net Neutrality's Don Quixote and Sancho Panza?

I just read through our wires the announcement that Sensenbrenner, Conyers Introduce Bipartisan Net Neutrality Legislation and was totally ferklempt. This is already the second time Sensebrenner comes out of left-field to chalk one against rank and file Republicans.

To civil rights activists, Sensenbrenner has earned his place as one of the horsemen of the anti-women, anti-gay and anti-immigrant republican apocalypse.

When it comes to voting rights and now net neutrality, the man redeems himself enough to hang out at the gates of purgatory. What gives?

John Conyers is the congressman with the cojones de oro. He's responsible for blowing up the Downing Street memos into the mainstream mediasphere. He's also responsible for pushing for censure of George Bush. He has yet to introduce articles for impeachment.

I rarely do this, but here is the full text of the press release. It's an interesting read :

Words to live by

Reproductive rights are too often subsumed by highly contentious debates about abortion. But reproductive rights go far beyond abortion. The global fight for reproductive rights is the fight against maternal mortality, forced and coerced sterilization, and gender-based discrimination and harassment. It is the struggle to give women the power to decide for themselves whether, when, and with whom to have children, and for access to sound, medically accurate information about family planning and sexually transmitted infections. It is the battle for universal access to all forms of contraception for both women and men. And it is the effort to protect women, men, and children from the devastating effects of HIV/AIDS.

In short, the reproductive rights movement seeks to empower people all over the world by promoting their agency and control over personal sexual and reproductive health decisions.
