here is a little bit of advice. I don't give a shit about you or your fair use rights. I don't. . .really, that is the truth and that is the reality with many content producers. You can blow smoke until you are blue in the face and I still won't give a shit. If you want to effect change and get people off your back here is what you do: instead of coming here where one person agrees with you and you waste your time trying to convince the rest of us you are right spend that time going to the pirating sites and encourage people to stop pirating. Explain to people the importance of paying for their content. The more common pirating gets and the bigger the problem gets the harsher and harsher the copyright laws are going to get. I said it before and I will say it again. Money runs this bitch. Those with gold make the rules and when you start taking their gold from them, they will change the rules to keep that from happening.

Here is all you need to know. Obama spent about $800 million to get elected in 2008. Many insiders suggest he will raise close to $1 billion to spend next year. Do you really think money like that doesn't come with favors attached?
