[No Dems 2004]

"If Senator Hollings (D-Disney) does run, he will be in for the fight of his life but will probably win--SC has a long record of protecting incumbents (hell, we re-elected Strom when he was 94 and clearly starting to fade). If, on the other hand, Foghorn decides to retire gracefully, the Republicans are probably going to get the seat."

Agreed. And I just love that part about Disney! LOL ;)

Foghorn really is the senator from Disney. He's been in the forefront of screwing over electronics manufacturing companies like Sony and Panasonic (who employ a lot more people in the south than Hollywood ever did) by forcing them to adopt cost raising technologies for no other purpose than contributing to the pockets of established wealthy Hollywood entertainers like Disney.

A case in point: a small take on every blank CD and tape sold goes into a fund to further fuel the power of the entertainment lobby and be distributed to those who need it the least. Thus, an independent artist trying to break into this world by making a demo CD actually has to subsidize the sonzabitches who have a vested interest in keeping them out.
