Um...Ash...
..I don't think you need a civics lesson.
"Dub's DOJ" has nothing to do with this.

Misspoke: make that "Dubya's USSC" re Constitutionality
When the rich assemble to concern themselves with the business of the poor, it is called Charity. When the poor assemble to concern themselves with the business of the rich, it is called Anarchy.

Hmmm....
...has he appointed anyone to the USSC yet?
Don't think so.
Its not even a constitutional issue. It'll probably never even be mentioned at the USSC level.
Its a legal decision that needs to be made. Does DMCA trump Fair Use.
If DMCA wins then there is no such thing as fair use...and we all get to throw away vcrs, cassettes, cdrs and all other copy media.
Somehow I think this is unlikely.
You give Bush too much credit for even thinking this would make the radar screen of the Administration.

Um...BeeP...
Duh's DOJ does have something to do with itFrom the link: In addition, Susan Illston, the federal judge assigned to the case, has granted the U.S. Department of Justice's motion to intervene because the suit challenges the constitutionality of a federal law, the DMCA. [emphasis added] That is Duh's DOJ, now isn't it. jb4

Well, it does say that...
but I still fail to see any constitutional issue at stake here.
It is a fair use challenge to the DMCA. One of many many to come...as the article makes clear...there are no fair use provisions...and hopefully this case will get one added.

Yes, our Constitution (may it rest in peace)...
..most certainly does not grant us a Right to Fair Use. Fair use is granted by statute...and is being usurped by greed. My point was in response to your post that "Dub's DOJ has nothing to do with this", which was shown to be incorrect.
Yet another issue on which we (sorta) agree.
Must be getting close to Christmas?

I think what you'll see...
...is them step out again...based upon what we've agreed on...its not a constitutional issue...and the Judge will find that...UNLESS...these guys have stated as an intention to have the entire DMCA overturned...or the Judge thinks the result of a ruling may have that effect...(the latter...I think...being a good sign for our side)
