		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Wasn’t Lassiter a 1970’s crime fighter?&lt;/blockquote&gt; Yeah, I think the show was "Dusky and Stitch".  Seriously, who names their kid Duskin?

If you view the source of his website, it becomes obvious that it's designed with &lt;a href="http://webhosting.yahoo.com/ps/sb/index.php" rel="nofollow"&gt;Yahoo! SiteBuilder&lt;/a&gt; and has lovely javascript functions called things like tableWorkaround().

It's pretty appalling the lack of knowledge that the US Congress has about the internet and technology in general.  If Dusky here has his website designed with this horrible template, how can I trust his judgement on something as serious as Net Neutrality?  Discarding him based on his website design may seem capricious, pompous, or hasty, but there are real, important underlying issues for which web design is a telling symptom. [apply iceberg metaphor here]</description>

		<description>Wasn't Lassiter a &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBQ3HbB0c8Y" rel="nofollow"&gt;1970's crime fighter&lt;/a&gt;?

Anyway, I'm pretty sure that guy designed his website no later than 1994.

I love that he lost your vote based on that criterion.</description>
