This is funny...

Go to www.google.com

In the search field type the word failure then hit the "I'm Feeling Lucky" search button.

3. I suspect that this was accomplished by some sort of "google bombing"
Edited on Sun Oct-02-05 02:48 PM by Douglas Carpenter
scheme. I'm sure google management did not have anything to do with it.

4. Has nothing to do with Google management. Don't start lies, please.
What's your agenda in starting a vicious lie? You offer no evidence for your statement. It is well known that Google "bombing" is easy to do in principle, though it does require effort and coordination / cooperation from thousands of people out there.

8. a mistake perhaps ...
not everything said incorrectly is a lie at all, far less a vicious lie.

And what makes you so quickly label the suggestion that someone dislikes Bush as vicious at all? Would I be saying something vicious if I suggested you did not like Bush?

So don't jump down peoples' throats with such nasty accusations, it's not polite.

10. well ya, I think it's best to give people the benefit of the doubt or
assume they are speaking without evil intent--unless proven otherwise

11. It is not the political content
It is the suggestion that the company management would subvert the integrity of the foundation of their operation that is vicious. Perhaps the poster is shorting Google stock.

7. Old news. It's been like that for quite some time. "Miserable Failure"
does the same thing.
