"Obama Signs Global Internet Treaty Worse Than SOPA"

[Dial_tone]

because bush is viewed as the most evil/dumb/facist president of all history...so agreeing with his policies must make obama just as equally inept

I guess I'm inept because I voted for both of them.

the usg has plan to become the world's police when it comes to the internet - just like it has with the real military.

This has been under development for awhile. Except this time, the Hollywood studios and REcord companeis are bankrolling it. So in essence, Hollywood will control the internet! (and your internet access).

So did Bushy, and walked around holding hands like they were bf\gf
Sad to say, but Diplomacy is a bitch.
When is it wrong to respect other country leaders and their customs?
Especially when the Arabs own so much of American land, debt and national intrests.

All American presidents that met the Queen of England bowed..... No complaints there?

What is your point youngster?? Bowing to the Queen of England is a symbolic tradition, the queen has nothing to do with government nor foreign policy. The Prime Minister of England and the Parliament handle those affairs...

You are still my boy!

thats what I was saying! Traditions and customs.
Bowing to the king of Saudi / Japan ect. is a tradition.

By no means a show of weakness, just common courtesy "for said country"

Of course I know teh queen holds no legislative powers.

I find that funny because (like you said) "each side is screaming at the house burning down and neither actually picks up a hose to wash it off".

I also find it funny because I think that (in the end) it doesn't really matter.

With a long enough time horizon (and all that)...

Of course it doesn't matter, we're Rome circa 450 CE; Nothing I can do....I just hope I'm not elderly when everything collapses; I've been considering voting for Obama to hasten the collapse but that would be immoral.

I've actually been thinking the same thing.

If he gets re-elected, he can continue to crash the economy which will only create opportunities short term.

His policies are killing-off small medical device companies left and right. It's creating buying opportunities like I've never seen in this market. If he did get re-elected and crashed the economy, we'd have these companies well integrated by 2016 and be ready to take off during the recovery.
