You'd think the control freaks behind the Bush campaign machine would have figured this one out before they unleashed it on the general public. Of course, since the Bush campaign is not famed for their collective sense of humor, I can understand why this may have escaped them.
The Bush-Cheney presidential campaign disabled features of a tool on its website Thursday that pranksters were using to mock the Republican presidential ticket.
The tool originally let users generate a full-size campaign poster in PDF format, customized with a short slogan of their choice. But Bush critics began using the site to place their own snarky political messages above a Bush-Cheney '04 logo and a disclaimer stating that the poster was paid for by Bush-Cheney '04, Inc.
The campaign changed the tool Thursday so that users could no longer enter their own messages, but only select from a pull-down list of states and coalition groups. The campaign didn't respond to requests for comment.
Gee, d'ya think they might have been worried about someone like me getting ahold of this weapon of mass satire??
