Damn Democrats.   Angry

House approval of the Pro-IP Act comes only a week after it received the unanimous blessing of the House Judiciary Committee, which is chaired by Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), the chief sponsor of the bill.

Good thing we have chimpyco to save us.

Quote
The Senate has yet to take up its version of the bill, which has languished in committee since being introduced last fall. There is also some doubt as to whether President Bush would sign it in its current form, as the administration has expressed reservations about it.

The House of Representatives has approved the Pro-IP Act, a controversial legislative proposal that aims to impose stricter penalties for copyright infringement. The bill, which has strong support from the content industry, passed by a vote of 410 to 10.

WTF? Congress couldn't get a majority like that if they were voting on what color the sky is.
