Any Kerry Supporters On The Line?
The Bush Administration punishes some Democrat backers 

" The Inter-American Telecommunication Commission meets three times a year in various cities across the Americas to discuss such dry but important issues as telecommunications standards and spectrum regulations. But for this week's meeting in Guatemala City, politics has barged onto the agenda "

 "One nixed participant, who has been to many of these telecom meetings and who wants to remain anonymous, gave just $250 to the Democratic Party. Says Nokia vice president Bill Plummer: "We do not view sending experts to international meetings on telecom issues to be a partisan matter. We would welcome clarification from the White House." "

Gee - It's a good thing I'm still stuck with my sturdy conservative Ericsson mobile phones to keep me in the clear.
I sure wouldn't like to own one of them fancy "Pinko" Nokia phones right now :-)
