Shame, i agree strongly with his paper that we need copyright reform, but once again, the GOP has proven time and time again that intellect has no place in their party.

I could have sworn that Hollywood supported the Democratic party and lobbyist from Hollywood will ensure their interests are protected via strong/strict copyright laws.

So does the tech industry, by a wide margin. They don't always get their way though, see: SOPA.

However, based on SOPA and this recent action, the GOP also heavily supports hollywood (and vice versa).

Just more evidence the GOP is firmly in the pockets of special interest groups, and cares not a whit for the rights and best interests of the American public.

Of course in this case, they're in the same pockets as the Democrats. A pox on both their houses.

If that's the case shouldn't you be against the Republican Party on this one. Honestly both parties are on the same side of this issue (the wrong one) and it is pointless to argue if one side is more wrong than the other when neither party opposes each other on this issue.

I hope this doesnt surprise anyone.

And yes, the Dems are the same - they are also bought and paid for.

I agree that politics are paid for. If not for that we wouldn't have super pacs investing more money into a campaign then anyone else.

OK, so we all agree our system is broken. What can we do about it?

The Republican party is working on performing a self enema.

Red or Blue, money talks. It's sad that a guy with opinions that make sense gets booted because it will hurt a parties purse.

You spend way too much time trolling. Please show that you're the better man and leave such pointless partisan noise to the wing-nut sock puppets.

I am against both parties but I still go after the partisan hacks
