Sloganator Rules!

The backstory: earlier this month, the web site for the Bush-Cheney campaign
- the real one, paid for by MBNA America and Richard Scaife - featured a
"create your own banner" tool , where you
could enter your own slogan and print out your own poster, with the
Bush-Cheney logo, and a note at the bottom "paid for by Bush-Cheney '04,
Inc."

Democrats, of course, couldn't get enough of this. The original sloganator
accepted everything, then it started censoring profanity and words like
"Hitler" "dictator," and "evil". Nevertheless, many clever folks exploited
the sloganator to their own ends before its sad demise only a couple of
weeks after its birth, and its mourners assembled some of the best for the
slide show. The link below is best enjoyed with the sound on:

It's "funny" that presumably smart people(that ARE running the country! Rolling Eyes ) would'nt know that "Snake" would'nt turn and bite them!

OK, now there were a few laugh out loud ones in there...very creative.

I think my favorite is "John Kerry Looks French"

Yes, you have to wonder what they were thinking...This is the type of thing that happens when enthusiastic people get together and think "Hey, that's a great idea! I have lots of neat ideas for that!" - then don't bother to consider the consequences.

Other than the profanity though, I bet even the Bush people got a chuckle out of some of those entries.

Of course, other people couldn't resist the opportunity to take advantage of a good idea and did the same with the Kerry Sloganator. The gallery there is pretty good too.

That was excellent! Funniest thing I've seen in a long time, and I'm passing it on.
On the same general topic, I'm looking forward to seeing "Farenheit 9/11" this weekend - anyone else?

Indeed! I saw Moore on the Daily Show, he mentioned that the FCC is attempting to stop his movie commercials from airing...the claim is that they are political commercials...

Yeah, looking forward to seeing 911 too. Also, if any of you have not seen it or heard of it, there is a documentary movie call "super size this". It is very good, definetly worth the 5$. It is a documentary on obesity, and the producer eats McDonalds for thirty days straight. Sounds kinda stupid, but it is a great movie.

Did anyone check to see if the sloganator is an internet hoax?
