Right click the picture of the president and wife, goto properties, look at the file name:
"http://cdn-channels.netscape.com/cppops/features/n/ne_election5/i/asshole.jpg"
It may not last long.
Say it again!!!!!! Double for me!!!!! They want us to say, "We're sorry we didn't let you destroy America! So let us help you. Where should we start?"
Good catch, I have sent CNN my protest email. That was really really low of them and reflects the SoreLosermanII attitude that cost them the elections.
Its 404 now. Both the renamed pic and original were there about 20 minutes ago, and the webpage hage the new pic inserted into it. The asshole pic is gone now.
Good work FReepers!
Oh NO!
Now I will have to see a pig slaughtered to get that picture out of my mind!
thanks for the update
It's georgelaura135.jpg now.
Nope, they just renamed it to Moron... The jerks... CNN sucks and this is just futher proof...

Hey CNN, he may be an a--hole, but HE WON, you bunch of liberal CLYMERS! Get over it.
I can't believe this has been up since midnight, and nobody has picked up the story yet. Keep writing to Drudge and others, this is getting ridiculous.
This may just be a SETUP!
You can verify this one. It is not a set up.
By the way, it appears that they have now indeed changed the file name on the picture.
well, the more of this that is out there, the more exposed they are to those that don't pay close attention to the media. Here's one that's still up click on it.

Someone should by FIRED for this....
This is a VERY petty matter. If they had published
it, it would be there for all to see.
The SETUP could be the following:
1. FREE REPUBLIC IS ENCITED TO MASS MAIL DRUDGE.
2. THE WHOLE THING MAY BE A LIE.
3. DRUDGE PUBLISHES IT BECAUSE HE SETS SOME STORE IN
FREE REPUBLIC PEOPLE.
4. LONGTIME TROLLS ON FREE REPUBLIC.
5. VOILA! DRUDGE IS DISCREDITED, FREE REPUBLIC IS
DISCREDITED AT THE SAME TIME.
6. DO YOU EVER WONDER *WHY* DU ACCESS IS DENIED SO
MUCH???
So did Drudge ever pick this up?
SCOUR that site, and others.
If there's more, post it to this thread.
Remember them doing the same thing to that little girl with the, "W" hair?
If by setup you mean a false lead, then no, it was not a setup. The file was named asshole.jpg and anyone could go see it.
Now they could do something like this, get us worked up about it, and then remove the offensive item before we can get the word to Drudge or Hannity or whatever.
