And, as you well know, FCC Chairman Powell is a thirty-something Bush
political
appointee and an ideologue of the first order. He has sold the soul of
Amateur Radio
down the river, all in the name of business above all other things. He is
an examplar
of all that is presently wrong with the Bush administration.


I really don't think it matters if it's a democrat or republican in the
White House... Powell it just a political appointee who really has no clue
as to how radio works. Doesn't matter if the head of the FCC was appointed
by a democrat or republican president... whoever they appoint is most likely
totally ignorant of the department they head. They are all politicians and
bureaucrats first, and knowlegable about radio second. He will do whatever
helps him, not what benefits HF radio. However, he has no idea what kind of
quagmire he is going to get into when BPL causes such massive interference
that the FCC will surely have to put an end to it.
