BUSH CAMPAIGN GROUP ENDORSES KERRY
"Yes, Bush Can" now says "no, Bush can't!"

Yes, Bush Can, an independent group dedicated to communicating Bush policies directly to the public, has abandoned its campaign and is officially endorsing John Kerry for President.

Before changing sides, the Yes, Bush Can team drove around the country supporting the President in a campaign bus they had equipped with sound and light systems, confetti cannons, and various props and costumes. They gave dozens of stump speeches, distributed campaign videos and "USA Patriot Pledges," and performed patriotic songs to audiences across the country. (See http://www.yesbushcan.com/media.shtml and http://www.yesbushcan.com/pledge.shtml.)

Last week, the group officially split with Bush. "In the course of our travels, we ended up learning more about Bush's policies than he wanted us to know," said Harmon Spellmeyer, one of the Yes, Bush Can team. "We came to see that this administration is a catastrophe for most people."

Before breaking with Bush, the Yes, Bush Can team worked earnestly to support him. They went to the Pacific Northwest to promote Bush's Healthy Forests Initiative--and discovered it was enabling the logging industry to cut down our last old-growth forests. They visited a nuclear power plant in Ohio to promote Bush's domestic security policies--and found no one in the guard booth to meet them. In western Pennsylvania, while promoting the President's energy policy, they learned that it allows coal emissions which kill 23,000 people a year. Finally, while defending Bush's war on terrorism, they found out that even Donald Rumsfeld feels the Iraq War has made the world a more dangerous place.

After many similar discoveries and much internal turmoil, the Yes, Bush Can group arrived at the difficult conclusion that they could not continue their work. At a press conference Tuesday, in order to demonstrate how profoundly they are rejecting their former boss's ideas and policies, they defaced and abandoned the campaign bus they had purchased and outfitted.

Until the election, the former Bush campaigners will be doing all they can to make sure that Bush is prevented from winning the presidency. They will be joining many thousands of others in going door-to-door to "get out the vote" in cities throughout Florida--beginning with Jacksonville, a mostly Black city where 11,000 votes were never counted in 2000. (Statewide, 179,000 votes weren't counted, more than half of them Black. 90% of Blacks voted for Gore.)

The former Yes, Bush Can team recommends the following websites to those who wish to help "get out the vote":

http://acthere.com/
http://drivingvotes.org/
http://www.democrats.org/roadtrip/
http://volunteer.johnkerry.com/traveler/
http://www.moveonpac.org/lnvb/travel/
http://www.aflcio.org/issuespolitic...olunteernow.cfm

To canvas by phone, visit http://www.partyforamerica.org/phone/ or http://calls.johnkerry.com/. Send a "vote" eCard at http://www.aflcio.org/familyfunresources/ecards/. To offer financial support to "get out the vote" efforts, visit http://acthere.com/gotv-contribute/ or https://www.democrats.org/support/.

Finally, visit the Yes, Bush Can website to follow the Yes, Bush Can team as they join thousands of others in helping make sure that Bush can do no more damage to America's economy, security, and dignity.

While not proving anything, it does raise the question of why the domain is registered with a French registrar, which is what I gather Ben was trying to point out (?). I did a trace route on the DNS and it is indeed Gandi's servers that are serving up the page.

Doesn't prove anything, but.... well, it would sorta be a funny gag now wouldn't it?

Edit: hah! just now I noticed the dates, which was probably what Ben was flagging lol... ok

There was no bus.
There was no tour.
There is no organization to turn.
Just some guy who put up a fake website a couple of weeks ago.
I'm sure someone very adept at looking up information on the Internet would know this was a fake site.
