- mattfugitive, on 11/05/2008, -6/+15Too late.. Obama won! God Bless America... and suck it dry RIAA!
- DangerCollie, on 11/05/2008, -3/+11All the losers in the same boat. DRM, McCain, RIAA. And out of those three, McCain is the only one with any class.
- infinitus64, on 11/05/2008, -0/+7i voted for obama and i thought both of their speeches were rather moving.
- Subriot, on 11/05/2008, -0/+6Sorry to be a party pooper here, but Joe Biden has a history of helping the RIAA prosecute P2P users...

- Ryan32, on 11/05/2008, -3/+9This was win/win for them, since Biden is in bed with them on policy... And McCain wanted to make it easier for them to keep the money they earn from it.
- Rhendal, on 11/05/2008, -2/+7LMAO front page
- Shawnshank, on 11/05/2008, -1/+6Sucks to be you Mitch

- SpeedSteamBoat, on 11/05/2008, -0/+4"This comment has been deleted."
BAHAHAHA, frogle.
You can crawl back to your troll cave now. It's all over. - ControlcChris, on 11/05/2008, -1/+5Erm Obama won.... like 2 hours ago
- smacksaw, on 11/05/2008, -0/+3Now he'll just buddy up to Biden. Politics. Gotta love it.
- Samo89, on 11/05/2008, -1/+4lol, dick cheney was bad enough
- DarkPrincess74, on 11/05/2008, -1/+4Wait, didn't the grinch's heart grow three times? Are you sure he's for McCain?
- tactus72, on 11/05/2008, -0/+3Interesting, being that the former CEO, Hillary Rosen, is now a democratic partisan pundit for CNN, editor/blogger for the Huffington Post, and supporter of Obama, yet was responsible for:
* The dismantling of the Napster and Audiogalaxy Internet file-trading services. Rosen has publicly expressed regret at the result of the Napster litigation. Not from a legal perspective, which she defended, but for the way it limited the debate over online music.
* Passage of the controversial Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
* Initiating the Grokster lawsuit on which the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the record industry
* Passage of the Performance Rights Act creating a public performance right for the first time for sound recordings
* Passage of the Record Rental Act providing additional rental protection for sound recordings
* Passage of numerous trade treaties providing increased protection for US intellectual property abroad
(from Wikipedia)
She seems to have changed her tune regarding digital distribution of music somewhat, but there's irony in these facts. - altjeringa, on 11/05/2008, -0/+2kinda makes it hard to get the word out when you are prosecuting the word getter outers for copyright infringement now doesn't it.
- stuf, on 11/05/2008, -0/+2Haha oh wow, the irony. Seems like both McCain and RIAA are keeping up with the times of these computer machines on the internets!
- irvin666, on 11/05/2008, -4/+6Now it's the republicans turn to blame the third party for "stealing votes."
I voted for Bob Barr. - sfelton, on 11/05/2008, -2/+4Nah, they did something right this time. By backing John McCain they transfered some of there hatred and thus gave Obama that 3% bump.
- chkdg8, on 11/05/2008, -5/+7No one really cares anymore. McPalin's party is over and they can cry if they want to. In other news: Obama grants Piratebay full immunity!
- flieger, on 11/05/2008, -1/+3That line will never get old.
- CalcProgrammer1, on 11/05/2008, -0/+2Stealing votes!?! Now they're torrenting our VOTES? Man, we need to engineer a more complex blocking system, first our pathetic movies and awful music, now they're gonna steal our votes too? Wow, we're made of EPIC FAIL.
-The remnants of the RIAA - DEIx15x8, on 11/05/2008, -3/+5Makes sense, Obama is against businesses.
- omnithought, on 11/05/2008, -1/+3***** them right in the ear!
- isgk, on 11/05/2008, -0/+2Even though it doesn't matter anymore from an election perspective... but from a historical record of how IDIOTIC people are in this election:
So let me get this straight... the RIAA hire a old Republican lobbiest who continues to support the Republicans... this is massive news against McCain. Dear God he gave McCain the max of $2,300; oh my GOD McCain is in his pocket. The RIAA owns McCain with that $2,300.
Unlike Joe Biden, who obviously isn't in their pocket. Biden wasn't one of only 4x Senators to get personal invite to a MPAA/RIAA/BSA celebration bash for the DMCA. Biden didn't propose spending a BILLION dollars to monitor P2P networks for "illegal activity". Biden also didn't co-sponsor a RIAA bill restricting recording the audio from internet & satelite radio stations. Nor did he sponsor a bill to make it a FEDERAL FELONY (federal pound you in the ass felony) to trick devices into playing unauthorized content. And he also didn't push the FEDERAL government to go after individuals on P2P networks.
Pull your head out of your asses because you are so blinded by your partisanship, your own man is a hundred fold worse in what you are complaining about. - dumbmonkey, on 11/05/2008, -2/+4He could give him a hook up
- Akairenn, on 11/05/2008, -4/+6God, you people are daft.
Hooray, the CEO of the RIAA got a big creamy load shot into his eye. If you think this is the end of the RIAA or MPAA, think again. The Democrats are in deeper with Hollywood than a midget is in an elephant in a bestiality porno. - Syraxis, on 11/05/2008, -2/+4Joe Biden might have a say in the matter, but it's Obama's decision.
- serif69, on 11/05/2008, -1/+3I voted for Bob Barr and McCain still won my county.
- TrancePhreak, on 11/05/2008, -1/+3Biden whispers to Obama....... "An RIAA/MPAA watchman in every household!" -President Obama
