Al Gore allegedly has enough cash to run a presidential campaign out-of-pocket from the proceeds of his Google "employment" and stock options.

Ping to the non-recognition of hero's of democracy and freedom around the world. These people are really sad.

Whoever decides their page graphic is obviously a leftist. They celebrate some tripe like 'Earth Day', and have no recognition of Memorial Day?

WTF is up with that?!

That's because they're leftists who secretly hate the soldiers who have given them the opportunity to enrich their lives.

They probably don't even know it's a holiday.

Use GoodSearch.com as a search engine. It uses YAHOO technology and donates 1cent for every search to a charity of your choice. My church has generated over 20k hits this month alone and will be getting a check for $200.

Why give 1 cent of advertising money to a group that obviously hates our country.

Probably because nobody went to work at Google today.

BTW, I hope that some that are unhappy about this are going to email Google with your disappointment and/or post in their message boards.

Most people remember Memorial day as an excuse to get off work, get shitfaced and feed themselves full of hotdogs. It has become another watered down holiday. It represents the start of summer and boating season. Why be bothered with those who sacrificed for their country. Call a vet today and say thanks.

I missed the one about Sherlock Holmes.

The fact is, I hardly ever see the Google home page recognize much of anything. I would think the day the owners decide to take over the Universe, all they need to do is find a handful of companies with more money than Godot and open the page up to advertising. Four square inches on that page would have to make Super Bowl advertisers look like pikers.

Do you just like to go out of your way to find things to complain about?

On Google's User Discussion Board, here is Google's reply to the complaint that they are not honoring Memorial Day:

Google's reply:
"Thank you for your note. We're glad that you appreciate Google's
holiday logos and would like to explain why we didn't post one for
Veterans day this year. Please be assured that the decision whether to
display a special logo for a holiday does not reflect any judgment on
our part about the holiday itself. Google's special logos tend to be
lighthearted in nature. If we were to commemorate Veterans Day, we
would want to express reverence, rather than mirth. This would be a
particularly challenging design. We would not want to, in any way,
create a graphic that could be interpreted as disrespectful. In light
of the mail we've received about this, we're actively considering
designs we could display on this day next year. We welcome any
suggestions you may have. My response to them was simple. Merely post
the logos for the four major services, Marine Corps, Army, Air Force,
Navy, and be done with it. A simple design, but still shows respect.
Another symbol could have been the rifle, muzzle in the ground with the
helmet on the butt of the rifle, with the boots in front of it. That is
a symbolic gesture, honoring dead soldiers and Marines. But did they
take any suggestions? Nope."
END OF MESSAGE
