The Sloganator (nb)

[Forbsie]

The backstory is as follows: 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:

For the world's most powerful man, yes I do think he's a tad naive but IMHO that's the least of our problems!!

The sad thing is that this could only have been conceived by one of the team and for them not to foresee abuse would be like Microsoft not checking their software for security holes! Errrmmm. /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
