<RantON with extreme vietnam flame thrower ON>

To cimm's link of the Youtube video with the United States Vice President talking about various forms of Intellectual piracy from Drugs to music to sale of electronic products that promote it to internet and web based theft sites.

ALL I CAN SCREAM AS LOUD AS I WRITE THIS, Mr. Vice President, all you are planning to introduce is another level of beaucracy with the United States that is going to further isolate our young folks, our future intellectuals and many other ideas that may come forth through interactions of people.

Are you telling me, that IP is worth this much that you have to create a new goverment mandate and institute to protect the world and our selves from our own choices AND from the products that we buy or choose to consume into the future? Are you TELLING ME that the US states is going to become a third class citizenrey because with the internet, we can move data around without future limits from government imposed or buy goods that you could NEVER restrict?

Yes, idiot vice president I may have not voted for you or the other side but why do you sound even more like a bumbling fool from a long term US senate career from Delaware that is making me cringe and feel that you are SO out of touch with Reality and that every young person in our great nation knows that they will find a million holes through this new beaucracy that this nation may become the next berlin wall and the corporations are no longer going to be able to restrict through idiotic or desperate measures that you are starting to propose this new rubber stamp report that you have made up by one of your un-named Think Tank pool sharkers who with a ring of a bell can craft any legislative intent that you so desire.

Mr. Vice President, WAKE UP! Your not going to be able to further control over the internet through laws, importation restrictions or some other stupid regime control mechanism that you feel you can create from a whim and prayer. Adults and their kids and your great grandkids  of this generation have shown you through so many levels how stupid this really *is.*

Do you really want your legacy from the senate and vice presidency for being known through the next seven generations or longer that you were the man who made Vice President Quale under HW Bush who could not spell potato, said idiotic things about woman and many other thing look Good? Do you really Mr. Vice President want to be known as a sucker??? </rantoff>
