No comment....other than HOW do they prioritize something like that??? I mean there was 226 MILLION hits for that word, and THAT comes up??

My guess would be that someone at Google doesn't care much for Bush.

 

[DeVillish]

well what its sposta do is take you right to the site that most people go to when they search for that key word. I think its funny as hell.

For awhile on Google if you typed in "French military victories" and hit search it would come up saying "no results found for your search"

No, you get this with French Military Victories (as one of the search results):

and its a joke, its not a real google page, they're just making fun of how google corrects misspellings.

About the failure thing, its called Google-Bombing:

Do a search for idiot and click the first link.

Its not Google. Its a trick called Google Bombing. Notice the same was done to make Michael Moore come up under "Failure" as well.

 

[powerglide]

yup Jesdas right, its a classic.

I read that google refused to tinker with the search algorithm to 'fix' this

as much as i've come to dislike bush, i still think michael moore should be one spot higher.
