Just the headline as of this the time of this post; no link. However, just to kick off the thread, I used the Google.com feature that allows one to search within a site, and found the F in John F. Kerry

I have never understood why young people rebel. When most of them are rebeling -- then aren't the only people really rebelling the one's that didn't?

No doubt, Drudge google-cached the offending language on the site before it was erased.

XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX SUN MAR 07, 2003 19:51:24 ET XXXXX

OFFICIAL 'KERRY FOR PRESIDENT' WEBSITE RIDDLED WITH OBSCENITIES

**Exclusive**

Sen. John Kerry's official election website is riddled with obscenities, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

The Democrat nominee-in-waiting recently said radio stations are within their right to pull Howard Stern off the air if they object to the shock jock's racy show.

But an investigation reveals Kerry's own website is filled expletives, setting the standard for a new wave of 21st Century campaigning!

MORE

A sampling of web pages featured on Kerry's official site reveal:

"Bush f**ked up Afghanistan... Did I expect George Bush to f**k it up as badly as he did... cutting all your f**king legs off at the knees... Where the f**k is he?... scare the living s**t out of me... He has a pig-in-s**t grin on his face, he wanted to get into the s**t... doesn’t play s**t in my book..."

In fact, typing in the terms "F**k" or "S**t" in the search box of the official Kerry For President site directly links the reader to the action!

A campaign source tells the DRUDGE REPORT that "John Kerry For President" online simply contains published material, and the senator was simply unaware on Sunday that the expletives were being carried on his own Internet server. [A search on the official Bush/Cheney re-election revealed no such curse words.]

"I think you'll see the offensive words removed," the top campaign source said.

Unlike over the air broadcast, there are no known foul language rules for official campaign websites.

Too much work to riddle him with obscenities, much easier to use the remote!

Pretty thin material IMHO, but if it does some marginal damage to Kerry, so much the better.

I didn't know about the Atomz.com search engine before this story, however.

My own site filtered the word "screw" as in "how many liberals does it take to screw in a lightbulb". I cannot believe a site that large would be "unaware" of its own content.

Go to Google, and enter the "obscene word" in question, followed by site:johnkerry.com -- you'll be greeted by reams upon reams of crud.

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

By the way, my favorite leader of the Zionist neoconservative world conspiracy, Richard Perle, is on C-Span right now:

Decided to get to the root of the problem, and got 401 results when I searched his website for 'Kunta Kinte'. The first page all seemed to highlight the word 'county', so maybe the search assumes that Democrats can't spell, and does a 'sounds like' conversion.

Maybe he felt he could shore up his navy credentials. "I was a sailor and I can prove it by swearing like one."

For kicks, here are links to some of the offending pages on Kerry's site. Lets see if they pull an MTV and yank them before Rush and Hannity can get on the air.

Most likely he's trying to attract the younger generation, young voters that post anti-Bush threads and figure themselves as individuals. People my age love anyone who will act like a jerk to get attention, simply because rebellion is the cool thing right now, and anything but makes you a "tool".

Well, let's hope he spends a lot of time and money to appeal to that demographic, which also (yourself excluded, I'm sure) is too busy trying to get laid and being cool to make the effort to actually vote when the time comes.
