Really fun.

If they really think they can stop the Obama campaign from posting this, they really need to look up “fair use.”
I honestly doubt they actually think they have a legal case here (and YouTube needs to get a backbone and stop with the ban first, questions later BS). I suspect they’re making noise just to make clear that they’re not the media wing of the Obama campaign. Those timid bastards.
“Valerie Plame,” the first track on the first volume, is from — to quote the press release — “the point-of-view of one of Plame’s inside contacts upon discovering her true identity, the song is an amorous tribute to the onetime CIA operative.”
This has stopped being funny and started to be really disheartening and frightening.
