Bush library searches for Web site name (oops, allow GeorgeWBushLibrary.com to expire)
Source: The Dallas Morning News

AUSTIN - While President Bush’s advisers were taking offers on an ideal spot for his library and museum, they probably should have paid more attention to the virtual real-estate market.

...

At one time, the Bush Library Foundation owned the easiest Web site to remember: www.GeorgeWBushLibrary.com.

But whether on purpose or because of an oversight — foundation spokesman Taylor Griffin wasn’t sure — it lost that domain name last year. Illuminati Karate, a Web company in Raleigh, N.C., picked it up for less than $10.

Since then, offers have come in to buy it, although company officials won’t say who or how much. And they’re coy on what they plan to do with such a recognizable site.

“We’re just holding onto it for the time being,” said lead Web developer George Huger. “To be honest, I couldn’t believe someone was letting it expire.”

2. They could still use it
just spell "library" wrong. Those who would go there wouldn't notice anyway.

4. ?
Since it would be part of the Presidential Library System, I suspect that .com wouldn't be an option, but rather .org or whatever it appropriate. I doubt if this is a real issue at all.

10. Well, for the Bushzeit, dot com is oddly appropriate!
org, edu, etc. takes away from that "free market" mentality!

12. This one has my vote.
Spelling doesn't matter. Facts are a waste of time. Just fill the outhouse with lots of busts of the monkey telling the terrorists to "bring it on". That will make him feared.

15. This just in!!
The George W Bush Presidential Library is now in the planning stages.

You'll want to be the first at your corporation to make a contribution

to this great man's legacy. The Library will include:



1. The Hurricane Katrina Room, which is still under construction.

2. The Alberto Gonzales Room, where you can't remember anything.

3. The Texas Air National Guard Room, where you don't have to even show up.

4. The Walter Reed Hospital Room, where they don't let you in.

5. The Guantanamo Bay Room, where they don't let you out.

6. The Weapons of Mass Destruction Room (which no one has been able to

find).

7. The Iraq War Room. After you complete your first tour, they make you

go back for a second, third, fourth, and sometimes fifth tour.

8. The Dick Cheney Room, in the famous undisclosed location, complete

with shooting gallery.

9. Plans also include: The K-Street Project Gift Shop - where you can

buy (or just steal) an election.

10. The Airport Men's Room, where you can meet some of your favorite

Republican Senators.

11. Last, but not least, there will be an entire floor devoted to a 7/8

scale model of the President's ego.



To highlight the President's accomplishments the museum will have an

electron microscope to help you locate them.

22. if all the other names they might pick are suddenly bought up (hint, hint)
wouldn't that be a kick.

GeorgeWBushLibrary
BushPresidentialLibrary
GeorgeBushPresLibrary

and so forth. go daddy will let you snap those and others dirt cheap. imagine, the biggest dumbass president in the history of the republic and there's no web site for his library.

on the other hand, if they want to get that domain name from Illuminati karate, they'll just take it.
