Another reason our country is a joke

I despise the RIAA. I have ever since they began suing grandparents and six-year olds for "illegal file sharing" and trying to bully anyone they can.

Now, the RIAA has several members of Congress defending their attack on file sharing at different colleges by sending letters to those institutions. One problem: the RIAA has been contributing to these guys' campaign funds.

Read the article from The Consumerist here.

If this doesn't make you at least a little bit mad, then you're an idiot. This is probably the most glaring of conflict of interest that I've ever seen - worse then Kirk Herbstreit doing the commentary on an Ohio State football game. Can someone explain how these Congressmen have any credibility here? And why they shouldn't be removed from office after such a glaring abuse of power?
