Aww, I can't remember the phrase to do it anymore, but if you typed in a certain phrase concerning weapons of mass destruction and did that, you would get an error page, but instead of "PAGE NOT FOUND" it would say "WMD's NOT FOUND" and do the whole error page according to the no WMD's :hehe:

if you hit i'm feeling lucky, it just takes you to the first search result.

if you hit the search button, you will see that page is the first result on the page.

how does the word failure link up with the white house page? who knows.

I read something about this somewhere, I think it was that google's search results don't come just from page content, but also how the page is linked to or whatever by other web pages. Or something to that effect :P
Same thing comes up when you use "miserable failure" as well, and a few weeks ago I came across an article that had a few for the msn beta search but can't remember what they were.

I'm not complaining :P If George Bush is such a failure I don't see why he won the election, if you were a failure you'd lose the election wouldnt you :P

well, as the election proved, half the country thinks that bush is a failure. while it wasn't enough to keep him out of office, it's still a very big number of people.

doesn't need to. If you have the power to change the votes or anything (i'm not saying that that has happened here! just an example) you can win even if the person is a failure.

Buuuut, that's offtopic ;)

Two words: Exit polls. Completely different results.

Google lets people pay money to be on top of a list.
