Comments on: Anti-P2P lawmaker gets top Senate spot

Sen. Orrin Hatch once suggested that music pirates' PCs be destroyed. Now he's head of the panel writing copyright laws.

Hatch is a thief, RIAA paid him off

He's accepting pay offs from the RIAA. Hatch is a loser. What human waste he is.

Simple politics, unfortunately.

I hate to say it, but I doubt he got money from the RIAA.. This all just boils down to simple politics.

The Republican platform is well known to be pro-business which means they will likely uphold, reinforce and supplement the current pro-business copyright law already in existance. This isn't a bash on Repubs, or a way to say Dems are better, just plain modern politics.

I think it's more likely that he got pressured by fellow republicans to steer more towards the "party line" when he flip-flopped.

How about we go destroy Hatch's

little government secure "job"? What a POS this guy is! He leeches off the public system. I'd like to see this guy brought to justice. Hatch belongs in prison, at best!

Mr. Hatch

Utah put him in office. Utah can take him out of office. All the whining in the world isn't going to change that (unless you live in Utah).

If you want to help bring him down (and don't live in Utah) then bring out the truth. SHOW the people of Utah that he is undeserving of the office he holds. Flood your own Senetors with e-mail asking them to not let his proposal go through. It's obvious to us that he doesn't have a clue about what he is doing in this case. He is just following orders from the RIAA and MPAA. The only way to win and make a point is to get the people of Utah to vote him out and your own Senetors to not vote for anything he does.

Kick Him Out

Yeah, I agree please people lets get this guy out of office.

Grassroots in Utah

I live in Utah, and am doing my best to expose how Sen. Hatch seems to have lost touch with his constituency. Unfortunately, around here it seems as if all it takes to be elected is to be backed by the Republican Party.

(Sen. Hatch is the reason why I am ashamed to admit I'm a Republican - Prez Bush doesn't help much either)

Orrin Hatch

If he wants to destroy PC's to guarantee copyrights, then he is a "Hacker" promoter.

P2P is a civilian right, if I want to give or share, that is my right.

Bye Bye, Hatch!
