Gosh, I was expecting:

 The Mickey Mouse image was created in 1928, and under current law
 its copyright would expire in 2003. Disney owns the copyright and
 might be reduced to trademark law in preventing cheap knock-offs
 of its toys. Disney is an $84 billion company that makes donations
 to the President, the subcommittee chairman, and to many members
 of Congress. The last time the copyright was about to expire, Disney
 persuaded Congress to extend copyrights for another 20 years, so
 it seems appropriate to give Disney another 20 year extension.
