You know it. I don't know too much about this guy, but what I do know, I don't particularly like.

Howard Berman (D-MPAA/RIAA) represents the district that contains the headquarters of the U.S. movie/TV and recorded-music industries. They're his constituents and he is loyal to them.

Before he was in public office this guy was my attorney. He's a total dick.

There's only one way the US government for the corporations by the corporations is going to stop:

Register to vote. Actually show up on election day and VOTE. And vote against EVERY INCUMBENT until they stop trying to pull crap like this. Rep. Smug's gravy train gets cut off when he's out of office.
