It's a trick that works like this:
You think you are going to the most trusted & preferred site for searches, Google. You're looking for when the next Presidential Debate is, so you go to Google. As we all know, on Google you can look up information on any particular subject and it instantly takes you to the answer.
This is just like when Captain Kirk would call out and ask the ship's computer a question, only you kinda have to do some typing. How amazing it is to live in this age of information.
Just one thing. The first link that comes up on the page sends you directly to give McCain money. There is no info about any debates on that page. None. (See screen capture upper left)
"Next Presidential Debate" = Make A Contribution in the world APalin
You're expecting a listing of links that can answer your question, but disguised as the first listing on the page is a link that takes you to that ad for McCain. In fact, this fake ad that looks like a Google Listing with answers, is at the top of a lot of Google Site Search Pages. See where it sends you in person:
http://www.mccainpalinvictory2008.com/landing/landing_v1.htm?sid=google&t=jfc
Notice, McCain's campaign refers to this link inhouse as McCainPalinVictoryGoogleLanding.
Nothing on that page in any way tells you about any debate, past, present or future. You were flying around free on the information superhighway, and he hijacked the plane and brought you in for a "landing" directly into the middle of his bank account.
I can't believe I'm seeing this. I'm taking a big deep breath. Annoying, he is.He can buy Google, which it could easily be argued is a monopoly. He can make Google funnel money to him all day. But, he can't buy us. He can't buy us. He Can't Buy Me!
Hijacking the Internet, The Google, The Information Superhighway is surely the worst form of domestic terrorism. So bad in fact, even the bad guys hadn't thought of it. Until now.
Today I went to get cash off my credit cards. I had been charging with them, that still worked. My Wamu card didn't of course. But, and I hope you're sitting down, on all of the 11 cards I tried to get cash off of, every one said Inelligible Transaction. not Invalid Pin, not Insufficient Funds, just Inelligible Transaction. Gulp.
Carl Rove, damn you. Damn you to hell!@!! I'm gonna go cry now.

GOOGLE PAGE LISTING WHEN YOU TYPE IN "NEXT PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE" (see for yourself -- http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=next+presidential+debate
----------------------------------------------
Link in the ad that looks like a google listing on the top of that page:
http://www.mccainpalinvictory2008.com/landing/landing_v1.htm?sid=google&t=jfc

And now your through the looking glass.
In an effort to fulfill equal time obligations, Barack has an ad too.
His is always clearly listed like an ad should be on the right side of the Google page. See: http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/im43?source=sem-lb-google-deb-debterm-search-swt&gclid=CJOwnKOlmZYCFRs-awody06W7Q If you go to his ad, you are treated to a clip of a debate and offered all debates on video to be sent to you for free. He doesn't even mention donating on the page the ad sends you to. He offers information.
Look for yourself. Make your own conclusions.
Get your Google on. And then go vote.
