By conservative standards, Tom Wheeler is a job creator.
Romney creates box stores. Wheeler creates telecommunications companies.
"raise money for obama ..then get job no matter if qualified"
What don't you understand about 30+ years of telecommunications business and policy expertise, starting telecom companies, leading them, etc.? Do you require at least 40 years for someone to be "qualified", Captain Derp?
No matter how qualified these people are the repo trolls will find some thing to to hold up nominations. That is once they are done with their vacations.
repub blogs, shoot mouth off first, then let someone else set the record straight
