Like I said, the right wingers seem to have basic reading comprehension problems. What court of law said there was any copyright infringement? Oh that's right, none.
While I agree that Jindal has no case and I hate when politicians try and intimidate people or groups like this broad brush arguments are just as bad. I can't understand the desire of some people or maybe its an obsession to demonize entire groups of people when they had nothing to do with the subject at hand.
There is an extensive case history concerning copyright infringement, which Harrier has no doubt that you could find if you bothered to do a little research.
TempesT68 is quite informed on the issue, and this is not even close to copyright infringement.
All that is going on here is the far right trying to attack the constitution and those that choose to exercise their rights.
Nope....Jindal will lose. We just had a similar case go through the courts concerning the NSA. Parody is protected free speech. Agree with moveon or not, they are permitted to do this.
taht assumes the court rules the billboard is a parody. if they do then you are right, and moveon wins. if on the other hand the court rules that it is copyright infringement, the moveon has to pull down the billboard.

since this hasnt gone through a court of law yet, of course there is no copyright infringement. that is why a lawsuit was filed.

It will rightly be political free speech.
