Fox Explains Why SSSCA Is Bad

Posted by Hemos on from the making-it-clear dept.

corbettw writes "Fox News is running an article that slams Sen. Fritz Hollings ("The Senator from Disney") and the Democrats (with the notable exception of Rick Boucher) as having betrayed their principles. More importantly, the article explains why the SSSCA is so bad, in language any American can understand. It's nice to see someone in the mainstream media taking this beast on before it becomes law."

      Maybe we could get Hollings to introduce legislation to bring RT back... We'll just convince him it's a new Disney character and watch him work his legislative magic...

      Ok, back to my nap...

      Fark would be great if I was six years old. The idiotic swear filters, the inane comments. I can't stand that shite.

      I do jest.

      But on occasion, you might find a glimpse of intelligence on /.

      and it's not "CmdrTaco presents /." or "CmdrTaco's /."

      that just looks lame

    Bill O'Reilly brought a USF CS professor of Arabic descent onto his show and accused him of supporting known terrorists- a charge proven false some time ago by numerous other news organizations and federal agencies. O'Reilly said (roughly) "If I were the FBI, I wouldn't let you out of my sight for a moment." The poor prof- who made an ill-advised remark about Israel more than a decade ago and has since recanted- barely got a chance to respond. I used to like O'Reilly, but this episode was sickening. It's as shoddy as Geraldo, and far more damaging. Shame on Fox.

    OK, in honor of this, I have put this phrase on T-shirts: "Keep your grubby laws off my computer!". I put it in my cafepress store, at no profit to myself. The price is the bottom line price that CafePress charges. Get them in my grubby laws store .

    Check out my other Tshirts if you want.
