George Bush is a music pirate

Before you sue me, Mister Bush, I would encourage you to read this:

Ok, so George “Dubya” Bush is a supposed “war criminal” - gotcha

A purported ex coke addict? - Right.

But please, Oh please George, why did you have to become one of those filthy stinking filesharing pirates? The RIAA would have everyone believe that these pirates are the most evil of the evil people on the planet. Hitler was nothing in comparison to someone sharing the latest Britney Spears album.

The following video is an interview done by Fox news.

Wow George, I didn’t realise you could get the Beatles on iTunes.

Oh wait, thats right - you cant, nor can you get them on any legal music downloading platform for that matter.

Also, according to this article by the Washington Post, ripping your own legally purchased CD’s is also against the law.

Guess you can just add that to your list of bad things you’ve done huh?

The above post was found at this site, which, at the moment, is down.

To bad he doesn’t just blatantly admit it, that way it would have reached a far grander audience.

But at least I feel more justified now in my own illicit net-activities

Hey,

Just got to make a quick clarification, I recently found that Ernesto over at torrentfreak had already written on the subject in 06

I honestly didn’t know, I came to the conclusion myself

So just giving credit where its due - it seems it wasn’t an original thought… damn

Oh well…this is the internet, everyone steals from everyone else. :p

I found your post via Digg though, but your site was down, so I looked at Google’s cache to see it.

hehe, yeah, Digg crippled the server my site was on.

I received an email from the hosting admins next day that if I was going to do that again, could they please notify them in advance so that they can take steps to ensure it doesnt crash everyone.

I thought that was particularly funny, given the hosting I was on was supposed to be pretty good (I’d been referred by people I know). Obviously its not so I’m moving on
