I know enough about the american government system to know he didn't propose this, didn't have anything to say in the debate about it, and personally I doubt he is very into this type of debate. But his abundance of ignorance, and the lack of veto give me all the more reason to tell every american friend I know to vote his ass out come 2004. ;)

Is this article possibly fake? I swear I just read an article on slashdot about a new bill being signed and going into effect this month banning spam and allowing corporate companies to sue spammers?
