Somehow I'm sure this was Clinton's fault.

Isn't that one of the major "talking points" for your standard Clinton hater/Gingrich? Didn't Clinton basically give China all our weapon technology? I could have sworn there was some fat pill-popping idiot spouting off something like that not too long ago...

Well, is this also his fault?

A Chinese company with ties to Beijing's military and past links to Saddam Hussein's army in Iraq and the Taliban will gain access to U.S. defense-network technology under a proposed merger, Pentagon officials say.

I mean, I'm sure with all the jumping around the world and trying to be involved in all sorts of different humanitarian efforts (ie, staying in the limelight somehow and improving on his Presidential "Legacy" by any means necessary), it was bound to happen right? I'm sure he's just been biding his time until he could sell MORE secrets to the Chinese right?

I can't wait to hear how this was Bill's fault... Will definitely make my head hurt...

Napster anyone?

Not that I'm a hopeless optimist here, but I find it very strange that after a brief "cooling off" period between Viacom and Google regarding YouTube allowing full episodes of shows to be available online, NBC and Viacom patsies are doing the exact same thing.

Does this remind anyone at all about what that whole Napster program used to be like? The attempts made by the small insignificant Napster at reaching out to recording companies to figure out some way of compensation so that everyone wins and they could continue to do business?

Is it me, or is this just how Corporate whores react to someone coming up with good ideas? If they can't control them, then they'll immediately use the best resource they have (total manipulation of the US Judicial and Congressional branches) to crush them and take their idea.

Is this really what we intended when we wanted Corporations to have the same rights as a human being? Wasn't the idea originally to just form a company to provide "Service A" to a certain area or community?

What the hell happened since then?
