Want to swap out that disc to increase your library? Do the same on an iPod -- hook it to your computer and you have a universe of music you can put on it. So, using the same logic behind the statement "MiniDisc offers unlimited storage space" means an iPod offers infinite storage space.
Not quite. The whole idea is that you could swap out MiniDiscs while you're actually traveling somewhere, meaning that your "library" could be as big as you wanted, provided you used enough discs. On a flash or hard-disk based player, the number of songs you can have along is limited by the capacity of the player. Sure you could transfer new songs from iTunes, but if you were going to bring your whole computer along with you, why would you need a portable player in the first place?
Maybe, just maybe it only specified political speech because it's about a report from the Federal Election Commission. Or maybe it's a far reaching conspiracy to stop you from complaining about your Ford's fuel efficiency.
It's just as easy for single/couple authored documents to be unreliable and poorly sourced. It's not the number of authors that makes some Wikipedia articles misleading or simply poor, it's the nature of Wikipedia itself. Submissions to a scholarly journal undergo their peer review before publishing, and Wikipedia articles are published, then edited. While you're right that a wiki system would allow some articles to be published that are just plain terrible, one would hope that someone else would notice either their lack of polish or pure fallacy, and act accordingly.
K Street is a colloquial term used for lobbyists in general, since the actual K Street in Washington is primarily inhabited by the largest and most power lobbying organizations and advocacy groups in the country.
The K Street Project is the name of the project started by Tom DeLay and Grover Norquist to attempt to influence lobbies to hire and reward loyal Republicans. The "K Street" in this name comes from the same source, but it is important to note the difference between the phrases "rise of K street" and "rise of the K street project"

...but can it go 88 miles per hour?
Isn't this like Pinocchio claiming that he isn't Geppetto's puppet?
...and then the Blue Fairy turned Dell into a real boy!
Wow, you run through a gigabyte of music in five minutes?
Must be some kinda reverse compression system you've got going on there.
