Obama appoints 5th RIAA lawyer to the Justice Department

It's slightly stale news as it broke a week ago, but it's still worth note. Yep, Obama's appointed FIVE attorneys that have worked with the RIAA to the Justice Department when numerous civil rights groups are pleading with him to not do it.

*sigh*

I've never thought that Obama was the Second Coming, I just thought he had a better chance of not trashing the country than McCain. But this I definitely don't like.

What? You didn't think he was the SECOND COMING? Blasphemy! :P Glad to know I wasn't alone in that.

It's not possible for any candidate to perfectly represent your political opinions/desires, IMHO, if you're a rational being (which excludes a lot of Fox News watchers ;-) ). McCain had a lot of negatives against me liking him as a candidate, chief among them his voting record and who they chose as his Veep, and no real positives in my book. Obama had a lot more positives, which is not to say that he had no negatives, but I counted Biden as a big negative specifically on his record with supporting Hollywood's DRM stance. Given the choice of the two, Obama was the obvious choice for me, so I have no problem blaspheming in that regard. :-)

WE NEED TO GET RID OF THIS DAMN TWO PARTY SYSTEM!
