Bono (Not That Bono) Would Like To Head The RIAA

A semi-anonymous reader writes "In a suprising display of confusion over what 'public service' really means, Rep. Mary Bono wants to fill the shoes of departing RIAA chief exec Hillary Rosen while also forming a new congressional caucus on piracy and copyright issues. Political watchdog groups in Washington questioned the idea of someone being a possible job candidate for the music industry's lobby and also a founding member of a caucus focused on some of the industry's most important policy concerns. Has anyone formed a lobbying group specifically to advance the position of us little people?"

I'd like to run against here but I'm gonna need about 2 million dollars to run a campaign. You slashdotters need to put your money where your mouth is and give me someone money to beat this lady and send here packing. If you need further info as to where to send money to you can email me at mylifesavings@swissaccounts.com or conman@nigiria.419.com. This matter is strictly of confidential nature as such must be kept secret.

I'm not little, I'm 6'4", and I don't see why DC needs a midget special interest group.

"The RIAA is dying, just like Sonny Bono when he hit that tree, and BSD"

When Sonny hits a tree, and he dies like BSD, that's RIAA.

If you have Metallica in your path, and you get Lars' wrath, that's RIAA

When you're kicked out of college, cuz of your drive Hillary gains knowledge, that's RIAA.
