Slovenian Ambassador Regrets Signing ACTA Agreement 149
metacell writes "Slovenia's ambassador to Japan, Helena Drnovek Zorko, writes: 'I signed ACTA out of civic carelessness, because I did not pay enough attention. Quite simply, I did not clearly connect the agreement I had been instructed to sign with the agreement that, according to my own civic conviction, limits and withholds the freedom of engagement on the largest and most significant network in human history, and thus limits particularly the future of our children.'"

Dudes, like... you know... all the cool countries were signing it, and they were like, you know... "Sign it, man! Go ahead! It'll be fun!"
So, like, I signed it but now I'm like, really sorry and everything, you know? So we're cool, right?

No way, they'd all die of caffeine overdose before one bill was done reading.
Wait.
On second thought, I like this plan.

Except Clinton wasn't impeached for hooking up with an intern. He was impeached for lying to a grand jury about it.
We all lie about doing the fat chicks.
