McCain Gets knocked off Youtube because of the very law he opposed

Remember "The Fair Use Act"?
Yeah the one that if you oppose it you call anyone who does a mash up a pirate?
The same law that McCain wanted to stifle because he felt that using anyone's media without thier permission was against the law? Well The Fair Use Act claims that if you meet 4 requirements you should be able to use the media;
1. You are not using it for profit (not violating copyright laws)
2. Must be factual
3. the extent of the use of the material and
4. impact will be reviewed


McCain posted a video in July called "Can't take my eyes off of you" (a video about the internets' obsession with Obama) with the song as the background music for satire, and The Warner Music Group posted a take down notice for McCains video for copyright violation. Now McCain is claiming the Fair Use Act, that he should be able to use the song (and the various clips) without permission because it falls inthe categories listed. That's kinda ironic dontcha think?

I think it's awesome that he got blocked from Youtube. We would have flagged it anyway, but not the point. If you vote against our bill you shouldn't be able to use it.

So anyway my message to McCain is this: this is what happens when you run dirty campaign. We hate you and your racist followers. We'll go to everyone of your events with Obama shirts on and out chant you and post it on yourtube with our camera phones. We'll boo your friends at hockey games and embarass you on a global scale. We will boo you off the Youtube stage. And don't be fooled old man, the Youtube stage is the biggest most important stage in the world.
