If registrars are going to remove web sites with outdated or missing contact information, there will be quite a few missing. Here's just one leftist site for example: http://www.facesforpeace.org/ and their whois info:

You've got the right idea, but a bad example because you did not use the specified whois server to get the full information for facesforpeace.org. In this case, you must use whois at register.com -

That domain appears to have accurate information:

whois facesforpeace.org -

Domain servers in listed order:

DNS5.REGISTER.COM 216.21.234.73
DNS6.REGISTER.COM 216.21.226.73

The process of looking up whois information is more complicated since the registration process was decentralized. For .COM, .NET and .ORG top level domains, use the Verisign Global Registry Services for the preliminary lookup. For .US, start at www.whois.us. For .ORG, start at Public Interest Registry whois. In all of those cases, you must then go to the registrars whois server to get the full information.

Keep searching - and use the correct whois servers - and you will certainly find some leftist sites with bogus registration info.
