Google strikes again.

Go to www.google.com.
Type in "miserable failure" (minus the quotations) in the search box.
Hit "I'm Feeling Lucky."

The way Google works is that it orders the search results by the number of webpages that link those particular words to that website. So all this is, is that lots of blog users put the phrase "Miserable Failure" on their page and linked it to the Bush thing. Google sees all of these links called Miserable Failure linking the the Bush thing so it ranks it as the number one result when someone searches for "Miserable Failure". This isn't the first time this happened; remember when someone did it with the words "Weapons of Mass Destruction"? It's also apparently why you get lots of porn results when you search for "Disney", because many porn sites have an "Enter" or "Leave" button-- which links to www.disney.com.

I honestly think Google should be the only servers anyone should be browsing. Google is the internet. You can search for latest news, sports, images....everything.
