shellefly is re-starting a book meme. I saw one on a Friend's journal the other night but wasn't up to sorting through more than 300 titles.

Underestimating the Ingenuity of the American People

Thanks to wlotus for posting a link to The Sloganator Memorial:

"The official Bush/Cheney re-election website set up a web page where Bushies could create their own banners on-line and then print them out with the official Bush/Cheney emblem and "Paid for by Bush/Cheney campaign" at the bottom. Ever enterprising, some folks of an entirely different persuasion found the site and generated a few banners of their own. As you might imagine, the Sloganator program was quickly shut down."

Office alert: the site has music.
