You don't need to be Fox Mulder to see something sinister in the fact that the people currently puppeteered by Qualcomm in the senate are Southern Republicans. This unholy union between a California high tech company and Confederate right wing extremists is not natural. How about the fact that the recent virulent attack on Ericsson (The Marquis of Queensbury rules do not seem to apply to telecom industry, whine, whine, whine...) first appeared in a Texas newspaper? Could it be that Washington Post or New York Times would never be duped into writing an article that swallows the Qualcomm spin without chewing? That any decent newspaper would also try to find some facts from other parties?

I think there is a conscious attempt to exploit the political atmosphere south of Mason Dixon line. Qualcomm may not have the support of the Koreans or the Japanese but they will always have Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms and their ilk cheering for a trade war against godless socialists. Don't tell me this doesn't make you at least a bit queasy.
