Earlier in the week I sent out a warning to all the lists I am on to call
your Congress people to extend and make permanent the Internet Tax Freedom Act
which keeps US-you and I from being charged a fee for every email we send or
receive. The article I sent was from the reliable and honest Wall Street Journal.
People have said for some time that this was coming about but called a hoax
by others. We had more or less scoffed at the idea. Read the below which came
out this morn from a reliable group in DC and shows Congress is so busy
fillibustering nominees of the President and fighting and behaving like children in
our Congress they did not even get to this bill. So watch your bills go up
soon.
Frankly I do not think the lists provider or controller ever sent this out to
all of you so you may not even be aware of what was going on. another example
of liberal media to keep things hidden from the  public. I am sending this
again to various lists in order to get attention but also picking folks I know
at random on some lists in case the list owner does not forward to all of you.

In not-so-good news, Congress will not get a chance to extend the Internet
Tax Freedom Act before it expires today(Oct 31), because Republicans Lamar
Alexander and George Voinovich are holding the legislation in limbo -- fodder for
some other legislative wink-and-nod shenanigans. The Act is a moratorium on
Internet access taxation, and double taxation of Web purchases.
