'A FEMA-level fail': The law professor who coined 'net neutrality'
lashes out at the FCC's legal strategy

http://j.mp/1cFkiSd (Washington Post)

   "They blew it on the legal strategy. It's a big fail. It's like,
    FEMA-level fail. Every legal expert told the FCC they're going to lose
    this case, and they did. It reminds me of the Bush administration,
    where everyone said the problem in Iraq isn't going to be the invasion
    - it's going to be in the aftermath.  Think of it this way: The FCC is
    like a battleship, and it has these enormous guns. But it decided to
    use a water pistol for this particular issue. Or, put differently: The
    FCC is like a car with a massive engine, and they decided not to use
    the engine but rather the bicycle that was attached to the car." - Tim Wu
