For a laugh:
Try this soon, before someone forces Google to fix its site:
1) Go to www.Google.com
2) Type in "weapons of mass destruction" (DON'T hit return)
3) Hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button, NOT the "Google search"
4) Read the "error message" carefully and thoroughly.
Someone at Google has a sense of Humor, and will probably be fired soon!!!!

These sorts of humorous sites have been around for some time.
Lets be careful, people. As you discuss your favorite sites, please try to avoid any errors in judgement leading to Rule 15 or Rule 4 (http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm) problems. Thanks!

sorry forgot about the political part of it, though it was funny coz someone inside Google pulled out something like this.
Makes you wonder what other easter eggs are build inside their search engine.

I heard about that, and two others.
Try the same method except instead of weapons of mass destruction, try
miserable failure
and
french military victories

So do you mean that the first site is showed directly when there is a exact match?

As stated by DAvenger, google has nothing to do with easter eggs or jokes.
I'm filling lucky just shows the first match.
"The trick is possible because Google searches more than just the contents of web pages - it also counts how often a site is linked to, and with what words."

So it means that when a page is linked by a lot of other pages will be considered to be a top match? Out of this i can presume that Bush's page is linked by lots of other pages containing "miserable failure".

Exactly, that's how google's page rank works; the more incomming links you have on a page the more it means that your page is important for people and thus is displayed in the firs results.
