Using Copyright To Suppress Political Speech
MacDork writes "As most /.'ers know all to well, Copyright is increasingly being used as a means to suppress free speech these days. And the trend has not been lost on our 2004 US Presidential candidates. Both George and John are using copyright law to 'vaporize' information considered embarrassing or harmful to their campaigns. Don't worry about basing your vote on copyright issues though. Like most other domestic issues (gay marriage: no, offshoring: yes), their stance is pretty much identical (i.e. pro Hollywood)."
I hope you didn't sprain anything with that kneejerk reaction.
Serving "with" does not have to mean in the same boat. Swift boats always operated in pairs or more to provide covering fire if needed. Just like every other type of boat involved in the riverine warfare in Vietnam.
One man, that actually served in Kerry's boat has put out a book that points out Kerry's lies about being in Cambodia during Christmas of '68. The campaign has not been able to answer this because Kerry's words are in the congressional record and a letter to the Boston newspaper. The title of the book is Unfit for Command, just published in the last few days.
Don't forget, Clinton signed the DMCA.
Professional Politicians are not the solution, they ARE the problem.
Sure. As soon as we have real documentation as to what his purple hearts were REALLY for, I'd say it's all still hearsay.
