I don't know if this is post worthy but I noticed something today that pissed me off. I am a pretty bad speller and when I don't know how to spell something I'll type it in yahoo and if it's wrong it will tell me what it should be, pretty cool right? Well I was making a thread about how they call ron paul an isolationist, no biggy. Well I wanted to make sure I was spelling it correctly and typed it in the search bar. I just so happened to spell it correctly and what was the first thing it shows on that page???

ALSO TRY: Ron Paul Isolationist.

Boy if they aren't fighting us tooth and nail...

We should all hop on Yahoo and do ten or twelve searches like

Rudy Crossdresser
Rudy Giuliani Dress
Romney FlipFlop
Huckabee Liberal
Huckabee Tax

whatever it may be
and then click on a discouraging link

at least we can leave all the candidates looking bad on Yahoo ;)

And that is why google is so much better than yahoo. Not to mention yahoo has turned over chinese citizens to the government...

I only use them for music and email... everything else... google baby.

Well, how else are people going to find pages that say he ISN'T an isolationist?

Give up on yahoo already.

Google is the way of the future :)

That is all based on the searches of other people, don't think that Yahoo somehow manually input that.
