    Stuff like this gives me the impression that W knows he is the joke that he is. And still laughs about it. At least he is honest!

    What I don't understand is why people were laughing and clapping when he said this and shrugged his shoulders.

    i'll be honest.
    i don't understand the question either.

    this is royalty rights for performers who are being broadcast from within the US to without the US, or just broadcast in general?

    As in ... Pearl Jam agrees to go to KRoq and play 3 songs ... PJ under current law gets no royalties from that performance, even if KROQ airs it 3 times a day for the rest of history?

    I dunno.
    Anyone more informed point me to some resources on what that question is getting at.

    Not that i'm defending bush, ever.

    I didn't understand it either... But I would think that my response (and most politicians) would be something like "I honestly don't know enough about the royalty laws to talk about what we will or won't do, but thanks for bring that to my attention, I will look into it." or maybe *gasp* just ask the guy for more information. I can tell you for sure that my answer wouldn't have been "I have no earthly idea what you're talking about", and laugh about it...

    I don't get the idiots applauding and laughing along though...
