The scope of this almost whimsical action by the commission is unbelievable.

These mergers are a big step toward recreating the old AT&T monopoly that the Reagan administration courageously dismantled.

It appears that he is determined to go forward and give the Bell [companies] the maximum relief.

There are no benefits in this merger for consumers or the U.S. economy. This merger continues the anticompetitive resurrection of the old Bell monopoly.

This really is a gigantic step backwards and, if enacted, would lead to the death of the Internet.

It's been just wonderful. I think you all have done a good job here.
