Idiots! The very issue that got him the Democratic nomination -- the Iraq War -- is what will lose him the general election. Can't they see that? Why in the world are they bringing it up again?

Group political suicide.

Resistance is futile ...

Putting a renewed focus on an issue which has thus far not enabled him to close the gap between his primary opponent in the polls, Lamont mentioned Vietnam in criticizing Lieberman, who is running as an independent in his re-election bid.

Basically a Google Bomb involves putting links all over the internet in order to raise a given site's listing in a search engine's ranking. For example, one well-known Google Bomb gives Tony Blair's biography when you type "liar" into Google's search engine (even though the word liar doesn't even occur in Tony Blair's biography). You can thank childish liberals for that.

What's even less surprising is that those proponents of fair elections would stoop to trying to stack the deck.

How lame(Lamont?)

Thx Charles & Chin...

#15 Is that you (Ned)?

Another liberal Google bomb: the word "failure" typed into Google gives George Bush's White House page biography - even though the word "failure" doesn't occur in the biography.

Google Bomb The Elections: Let's Do This
by Chris Bowers

If Democrats win this election, and search engine optimization plays any role, I will feel good about doing this. And no one called right-wing bloggers "unscrupulous" when they did this to John Kerry in 2004. They opened the pandora's box on this one, and they can ram their criticisms for me taking it up a notch upward and to the left.

Chris Bowers seems to be the spearhead of at dkos. He's not only a Koskid he's also a member of the Pennsylvania State Democratic Committee.
Stupid and silly.

This country is going to sh*t on the fast track...

I don't think I can stomach a 'Democratic' congress and POTUS in the coming years... which seems to be the current trend... may as well start practicing Sharia now...

Judicial activism finds its way north. A Canadian judge rules that the country's definition of terrorism violates the bill of rights.

A judge on Tuesday struck down a portion of Canada's top anti-terrorism law, ruling that the clause dealing with the definition of terrorism violates the country's bill of rights.

The ruling hands an at least partial victory to accused terror suspect Mohammed Momin Khawaja, who was the first person charged under Canada's Anti-Terrorism Act, adopted in the months following the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks.

The google bomb is a code to tweak search results. If enough people put the words "Bush" and "poopypants" on their webpages then when someone searches google for "poopypants" they get results relating to Bush. It's a stupid and meaningless trick, just a high tech version of the flaming bag of dog doo on someones porch.

Yes, basically. It can include tricks like including keywords in your page headers that have nothing whatever to do with your site...using text of the same color as the background so viewers will not see it but search engine robots will...directing search engine robots to pages specifically formatted for bots - ugly, full of nonsensical garbage but with all the right keywords in place the right number of times to move a site to the top of the list.

People have been trying to bust the search engines this was for more than a decade. Every time the search engines get wise to the current trick and rewrite the algorithm (think of a recipe) they change the tricks.

Another google bomb that was popular during the run up to the second Iraq war was typing in the search bar "French military victories"
After clicking that the search would read:

Did you mean "French military defeats?"

With the end results the bombers hope for being this:

Say John Q. Public wants to find out something about GOP candidate Jane Doe.

He types Jane Doe into Google and the first hit* is a piece describing why one SHOULDN'T vote for Doe.

*or as close to the top as possible.

The purpose is to increase their audience for hit pieces.

Isnt jsut google they spam up the anti US or anti Bush or Anti Republican stories by giving them high ratings.

This has been going on for years. Congress is crazy allowing UC with all of its liberals to run it. UC is probably in favor of the Chinese getting all of our secrets.

Thank you! I'm learning something new tonight.

I find it incredibly ironic that a site which bills itself as "direct democracy" should choose to artifically redirect results on what would otherwise be a pure democratic process.

Anyway, I don't advocate google-bombing, but I also don't believe in wikipedia. Some things you can do:
1) Edit the wikipedia articles and add positive things about candidates you're interested in. Also if you're in the mood, change things like "controversies and criticisms" to "controversy and criticism". It's entirely within the good faith editing of wikipedia to do such a thing and causes their googlebombs to link to places that no longer exist.
2) Join sites like kuro5hin.org (the guy who wrote the SCOOP engine which runs both myDD and dkos runs K5) and post your own googlebomb. K5 also allows "community submitted content", so publish away.
3) Since myDD appears largely unmoderated compared to something like the DU, hop over there and voice your concern for their morally bankrupt tactic. Why are they flying a banner of pure democracy if they're trying to influence the internet anyway?

Depends on the particular Christian school and the curriculum they follow. This is why we homeschool - less expensive by far and we can teach exactly what we want taught in exactly the way we want it taught.

What I cannot understand is why Muslims have moved to such cold and/or humid areas here. When I was in Seattle I met a lot of Brits/Irish/Scandinavians. They liked the climate--they were familiar with it.

Maybe the Muslims chose those areas as a way to cut off t he N.E./E. from the rest of the nation.

#114 MandyManners
Darwin believed in God so the two things are not mutually exclusive. I have had this argument with both sides secularists and the born again. The theory only says things adapt to their environment not where they started from. God would not have made an earth with different climates if he thought we should all look and be alike.

Maybe the Muslims chose those areas as a way to cut off t he N.E./E. from the rest of the nation.

Or maybe the colder weather gives them an excuse to keep their women under wraps?

I've given up on trying to understand them. Just keep my eyes open and my powder dry.

Goodnight and thank goodness for brass cartridges:)

I met Joe Lieberman at the Norwalk Oyster Festival several weeks ago. It was just after Jack Kemp (who I think would be a great president!) offered his support to Lieberman... by either campaigning for him or against him, whichever Joe felt would help more. ;-) Anyway, he shook my hand and I wished him all the best in the election. (Lieberman will win, hands down, I believe.)

On the way back to the parking lot, I passed several Lamont campaign signs on the front lawn of an apartment building, along with a hand-written sign that read "Where is Lee Harvey Oswald when you need him?" What an irony that we live in such a fascist BusHitler country - yet citizens can openly display signs advocating assassination of the president!

I don't know if it's the same in other states, but here in CT the only real campaign strategy the Democrats are employing is "We HATE BUSH and anyone who has ever supported a single thing that the Bush administration supports, especially THE WAR IN IRAQ." Even the gubernatorial challenger to Republican Jodie Rell is bringing up the IRAQ WAR as a campaign issue! Didn't the Democrats learn from the last election that being the "anti" candidate doesn't work? People want to know what you are FOR, what you have TO OFFER, what SOLUTIONS and IDEAS you have... not what you're AGAINST!

Dummies.

Gore created the internet through the power of pure intellect.

I thought the meme in all the DUMBASSocrat ads was Iraq is "Bush's War"?

(as oppposed to the war of the 75% of Dems and 99% of GOP that voted for it)

GUess the new meme will have to be "BushLieberman's War"

A little unwieldy, but has a little ring to it I suppose

Idiots.

"War of Choice" Hey I like that! As in:

War of Choice, Americans get pissed and choose not to put up with islamofascist crap anymore.

Joe should make that a campaign slogan.

Notice how the Associated Press just brushes right past the fact that Lamont is trailing badly in the polls, in an otherwise totally sycophantic piece:

I'm noticing, Charles. I'm noticing that you are getting ever more desperate and paranoid over the impending Democratic tsunami in three weeks.

This articls is innocuous. And you are becoming ever more paranoid.

If it's a war of choice, it's a Dem war of choice. In October 2002 the Dems controlled the Senate and could've voted against it, but they didn't. 29 of the 50 Dem senators voted for the resolution, to include Hillary, the French speaking one, the trial attorney, and all the others who put their finger to the wind to see which way it was blowing.
