No, this is not an appeal to urge you to vote for McCain/Palin.
Although you should.
Rather, it’s about the Website VoteForTheMILF.com, which some said was a domain owned by JohnMcCain.com.
It wasn’t. And isn’t. Owned by the McCain campaign, that is.
For the uninitiated, a “MILF” is a term popularized by the movie, American Pie. It means, “mom I’d like to …” well, go here if you really must know … but I suspect you get it by now.
Anyway, GovGap.com claims that the McCain campaign owns the domain name.
Got pictures, screenshots, and everything.
And plenty of left-wingers jumped all over it.
The Washington Post, Crooks and Liars, FireDogLake, and others.
Of course, they’re wrong.
The whole thing was a prank. Rial F. Sloan of Chattanooga, who runs n00tz.com, confesses all.
Personally, I thought it was hilarious.
If the McCain camp had registered it, I think it would have been a good move; they’d have kept it out of the hands of evil-doers. You know. Democrats.
But the McCain camp didn’t do it. Some geeky guy in Chattanooga did it.
And the left fell for it. Hook. Line. Sinker.
Silly hippies.

I never saw any of the American Pie movies – I’ve got this whole ‘be careful what you set before your eyes’ thing going; and I could tell those flicks were likely to be trouble.
I’ve seen the term MILF and knew it referred to older women in some way, The closest I got in my naive innocence was Mother In Law; Foxy.
The truth, alas, appears to be even darker than I dared imagine.
Could we come up for a new acronym for Gov. Palin?
Maybe… MACHK? Moose And Crazy Hippy Killer?
Those liberals sure are smirt!
My domains are at Godaddy and have privacy through Domains by Proxy too.
Oh, noes, Senator McCain owns my domains…..
Govgap’s “investigation” reminds me of an old saying about monkeys and footballs.
Hey, that’s be a good idea: get a better acronym for Gov. Palin.
Maybe she is a MILF: Murderer of Idiotic Liberal Fantasies.
HAHAHA! I just tried to hit the link and it took me to Google. Not sure what happened there, but obviously they’re trying real hard not to take credit for it. Hey, you think they’d sell me the domain?
What? We get icons, now?!
I’ve been away so long.

It would be nice if these people were hippies. Hippies were more relaxed than these people. Nowdays a leftist is so neurotic / uptight that a new term had to be created. I use the letters to abbreviate the name: NJF MSG …. that is Neurotic Joyless Fcku / Militant Stalinist Greens. These are people who sat through a grade school reading the story of Chicken Little and can not sense the similarity with global warming narrative. They think the sky is falling ( substitute the sky is getting warmer ) and can not see that Al Gore is playing the role of Foxy Loxy gobbling them up to feed his energy hog house and jet.
I LONG for the days when these people really were hippies and just smoked an occassional bone. A world ruled by neurotic people gets less and less fun everyday.
I was expecting lots of trolls here lately but it seems they have given up. Maybe they think they have it in the bag. I think the hippies/libs underestimate the effectiveness of Palin being constantly on the offensive. I think by this time next week McCain will be up 5% in the polls. Go McCain-Palin!
GeeSus Ridge2 …. sounds rather wishful. If McCain would have come out against the bailout instead of being a “Responsible Senatorial Type” he would have been up 15% instantaneously. Instead inside his mind he windbagged himself into believing the stuff he drones on about that causes msg-like brain numbness. I’m feeling pretty negative about now. Worst thing about it is McCain is signed onto the Chicken Little Global Warming Story ready and willing to consult with AlGore-ithm the mechanical man who unlike the original Tin Man will never get a heart big to feel ashamed for the whooper lies he is telling and the attendent privation he is causing the poor people of the planet.
This is off topic, but you mentioned my hero, Freemon. Al Gore!
And, bonus announcement! I’m now burning COAL in my stove. Gosh, I love it. 12,000 BTU per pound which is greater than a pound of Al Gore fat, a ‘Gorebal.’
I love these carbon rocks. I love carbon. COAL!

I didn’t do it.. I just had my hands on the McCain side of it, redirecting it away.. My article simply explains how it was possible for someone to make it look like the McCain Camp purchased the domain and pointed it to the JohnMcCain.com site.

Hippies will believe anything. Anything they want to be true, that is.
Jimmy, if the hippies start complaining about your coal stove, just tell them they’re the charred bones of conservatives. Then when they come to your house to marvel at your genius, conservative-fueled stove, you can just shove them in it.
I like VPILF. She’s got my vote.
Same here.
