"This may just be a SETUP!"

That's why I mirrored the site on my hard drive. It was there and it is not a set up. They got caught.

No, the file really was named previously A-hole and then moron.
They have now renamed it simply "bush" on the one page it let me see.

I did send them a somewhat scathing feedback on it.

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.

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.
