Whoah, whoah. I will quietly step away from this, because politics are not my bag. Basically, my life was better under Clinton, and that's about all I know. So I'm of no use in a good political debate.
COPA, however, is an interesting thing. When I worked at Scholastic, I would bash my head over the most basic things we couldn't do on the Web sites for the books, all because of COPA. I remember sitting in a meeting with a bunch of people, and this lady who had worked in the business for years said, "Yep, this company helped them create that behemoth, and look how it has bit them on their collective asses." It was really far-flung and restrictive. Drove me insane, because I couldn't do an effective job. However, I'm far more scared of what Bush and Co. are doing with the Internet, particularly porn.
The gun thing is stupid. I'm as liberal as it gets, but to me, being anti-gun is the antithesis of liberal. [Actually, I'm probably more of a libertarian, in that I want less laws and restrictions and think people have the right to personal freedoms, accompanied by personal responsibility.]
Clinton was better than Bush, I think, that's all. I don't have much recollection of pre-either of them, so I can't speak to that at all. I only started taking any interest whatsoever in politics after I watched 9/11 happen. But for some reason, it didn't make me shout USA! USA! like so many people. I don't know.
