Obama's not on my Friends list.

Obama's not on my Friends list.

Mine either. Charles Manson is, but not Obama.

[metmom]

Tell me this is satire. Please.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

He said the candidate has lost his vote.

How racially insensitive of Mr. Anthony.

[Hegemony Cricket]

Golly - eminent domain for intellectual property - what will they think of next (or what will someone else think of that they will appropriate)...

[ClearCase_guy]

"Mr. Obama, you are running for the office of President. If elected, you will be leader of the Free World. The most powerful person on the planet. Your critics say you lack experience -- can you give us an example of an instance where you really took charge?"

"Absolutely. There was this time, see, where someone had a MySpace page, and it talked about me, but I wasn't happy with the content. I stepped right up to that challenge. I said, "Hold on. I'm taking control here ..."

[HEY4QDEMS]

But the Obama campaign decided they wouldn't pay $39,000, which is what Anthony said he proposed for his extensive work on the site, plus some additional fees up to $10,000.

IOW, "Thanks Sucker"!!!

I’m considering establishing a myspace account strictly to add all of the politicos are getting “top page cool new friends” profiling on myspace.

See which candidates are using it and how they are using it. When anyone from the campaigns posts a bulletin, I’d get it. Might even be interesting to see which other accounts try to add me as a “friend” (and fellow traveller).

It does leave open the question of how much claim someone “famous” can lay to an account when they already work together WITH the person running an account. In the absence of a signed contract, can they claim ownership? Or was that something that the operator of the profile needed?

“...Obama campaign was “bullying” him out of the page he built.” Nedra is up to her usual AP tricks. Why not just use the word that describes what the Obama campaign did: “stole” the page he built.

The magic negro shows he may just have the bag of tricks needed to butt heads with the witch.

LOL, it is all the mySpace drama that keeps me WELL away from it.. it would seem like the wana-be president of the United States isn't even about the fray of mySpace drama.

I realize Hunter has a mySpace pages as well, but the more I think about it the less I want to support ANY Presidential candidate that has a mySpace page.

[pikachu]

Typical Liberal — he sees somebody doing good (for him), fears a possible lack of control, cheeps out, and ends up in the mud screaming that he did nothing wrong.

[blues_guitarist]

"In this new frontier of online campaigning, it's hard to determine the value of 160,000 MySpace friends"

Zero, zilch, nada . . .

[WKB]

Little Anthony to Obama:

“You don’t remember me, but I remember you. ‘Twas not so long ago, you broke my heart in two. Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, caused by you”

[stylecouncilor]

They have been featuring DemoRats on their main page a lot lately.
I am friends with Gay Hitler that's a pretty amusing profile...lol!
There is also a small Freeper group on there that could use more FRiends.

[I still care]

So Anthony has been working on Obama’s campaign for two and a half years, and has been managing a page with 160,000 people signed up.

And Obama’s campaign, which has amassed millions, won’t pay him a fair value for the page, and instead got an evil corportation to steal his property from him.

You would think this would be disgusting to the radical left on sites like DU.

[GoldCountryRedneck]

No good deed goes unpunished???

[MelonFarmerJ]

Unrequited Librat Love: how touching and how sad....

Actually, V. Lenin coined a phrase which might apply here: Useful Idiot.

[Quilla]

Why doesn’t Anthony just change his password?

[DBrow]

And a few days ago, Mitt Romney dropped his Facebook page because it may be some sort of violation of campaign finance, or he can’t control who posts as friends, or something-

If Romney can’t use Facebook, how can Obama use MySpace?

Aside from teh obvious fact that Obama’s a Democrat and Romney registered as Republican, I mean.

[KarlInOhio]

Good thing Anthony is an Obama fan rather than a Hillary fan. If she wanted his website, he might have just disappeared after sending an unsigned message telling MySpace to give the page to Hillary.

Seriously, I could see how MySpace could force Anthony to turn over the page address (if I'm using the right term) to Obama's campaign if he was using Obama's name (much like I can't squat on pepsi.com because Pepsi has a better claim to the name), but there is no way the content or the address list should belong to Obama. Obama should get a blank MySpace site with no friends registered yet.
