Obama fails to register site name....points to NRA Home page (LOL! Alert!)
At the beginning of the year, President Barack Obama's new 501(c)4 political nonprofit, Organizing For Action, was launched with all the usual bells and whistles. But the tech wizards at OFA forgot one important rule in today's Internet world: Register all the iterations of your website address before someone else does.
Now Obama's team is filing complaints against the folks smart enough to get the addresses before he did.
As Obama's OFA made its debut, no one in his purportedly Internet-savvy campaign had obtained the corresponding .com, .net, .org or .us sites, nor did OFA register other names that are close to its official one, as is the sensible practice. In the case of the .net address, a fellow named Derek Bovard had already registered the .net address by the time Obama's team took notice.
Bovard has routed his new site to the homepage of the National Rifle Association.
So, whenever anyone goes to www.organizingforaction.net they end up seeing the homepage of the NRA.

Awesome. This makes it freaking awesome:
"We have been granted 'Service Mark' #85838531 from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the website as 'Providing an on-line website featuring information on the United States Constitution and Conservative values' and we were also the first to use it in 'commerce.' So I don't believe they have any valid legal ground to stand on in regards to this website name. Before purchasing this site I had checked TESS (Trademark Electronic Search System) for any existing Trademarks or Service Marks and found none. I also searched for any existing companies called Organizing for Action and found none. So I bought it, legally."

This is funny,
I wonder though, is this something the NRA would have to agree to first?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mK2JYfZAmA When will America become America?
