It'd take more than the people at google to fix Bush. About 10 years in junior & infants and he may be upto a 10 years olds brain capacity

Also works with "Liar" - without the quotes of course.

These guys at google must have a barrel of laughs all day long.

Now that I like. If a little unfair.......Verdun 1916, although not a victory as such, those Frenchies fought like hell and did not fall to the Hun, Bosch, Fritz...er

I'll be the class geek so. Instead of hitting "I'm feeling lucky" hit "search". The top link says "Why these results?" and if you hit that it says the following:
Quote:
If you do a Google search on the word [failure] or the phrase [miserable failure], the top result is currently the White House’s official biographical page for President Bush. We've received some complaints recently from users who assume that this reflects a political bias on our part. I'd like to explain how these results come up in order to allay these concerns.

Google's search results are generated by computer programs that rank web pages in large part by examining the number and relative popularity of the sites that link to them. By using a practice called googlebombing, however, determined pranksters can occasionally produce odd results. In this case, a number of webmasters use the phrases [failure] and [miserable failure] to describe and link to President Bush's website, thus pushing it to the top of searches for those phrases.
So seems it's not Google's pranksters, its cyber-terrorists. Oooh, time for some knee-jerk extreme counter terrorist measures me thinks....

Time GW Monkeyface bombed Google back to the stone age then i guess. That'd be his normal reaction to things he dont like. The moron.
