I would not have made such a big deal out of this if the page is not intended to dupe people into thinking it is the official WH page. But it has the look about it and only puts the parody information in tiny print. Many are getting fooled and have letters published on the site shocked at what the President is supposedly supporting on this fake website.

I am, but there is a difference between free speech and pretending to be a government website.

While we legally can't have it taken downI hear ya.

I disagree with you, i own stopdemocrats.com. This is a free-speech issue. This is a humor site and I honestly envy their layout lol :).

I looked at it and its a parody. It doesn't even claim to be a political website. Some people blow short fuses over nothing.
To: freeasinbeer
wow, what a great poster!
To: Macross Jem
Not many here are more conservative than I, but I found it truly funny...
It is truly inspired parody and satire.
To: freeasinbeer
One final one...

get a grip............it is funny............give it a rest, and get onto real stuff.........this is trivial, and funny if you think about it.........

I recognize it is a parody. But it doesn't show that very clearly. It is set up to look like it is the real WH website and that is wrong, parody or not.
I do have a short fuse though....:)
I questioned whether I was making too big a deal on this or not. Part of me thought I was, but I just couldn't get over that.

I had to admit I did laugh at this one......
