Looks like a vote for Obama-Biden is a vote for the RIAA.  Dear Senator Joe also thinks that there's no such thing as too much wiretapping, and that if you use encryption you should have to surrender the keys upon demand; and his Omnibus Counterterrorism Act of 1995 laid the groundwork for the much-reviled PATRIOT Act and has co-written bills with him.

Heck, Dianne Feinstein likes him.  That should be enough of a counter-recommendation for anyone.

I had mixed feelings about Obama before this bit. Also towards our senate-wannabe running against Collins. Neither seems to have read the Constitution with much attention to detail. Nor have they studied much economics . . .

Don't wanna vote for the other guys, either.

I didn't invent it -- attributed to British anarchists. Originally phrased "No matter who you voted for, the Government got in."
