They can't take it down too soon, or it will look like conservatives win too easily. They'll hope to minimize the damage with a late Friday afternoon cave.

Not only are major papers running headlines about the site becoming a laughingstock, even respected liberals are admitting that they would have flipped out had Bush tried something similar. Place your bets: How much longer can the PR beating go on before someone throws in the towel? Ace thinks it’ll be gone — or at least substantially overhauled to rid it of the “snazzy Gestapo color scheme” — by 6 p.m. ET. I’m thinking they’re going to stick with it for the long haul for the reason MKH gives here:
Design regression from Fight the Smears to #AttackWatch is metaphor for Obama 08 vs. 12. Same product, subtract style, sprinkle desperation.
Compare and contrast. We’re more than a year away from election day and it’s already axiomatic that this will be the nastiest campaign in recent memory — and the worse the economy is, the nastier it’ll be on the White House’s end. Why pretend otherwise by adding rainbows and unicorns to AttackWatch.com now? They should keep the site as is and embrace the new scorched-earth vision of “Hope” and “Change.” Or better yet, embellish the motif. How about a grainy photo of Joe Biden in a balaclava to add “atmosphere”?

Quit Facebook. It is not your friend.
Just read that a small village in Kenya gave US 12 cows not to send Obama back. #attackwatch u are the only hope in stopping these lies!
Thanks for the advice on FB, but it serves a useful purpose.
I just read many of the tweets. LOL!!!!! Overwhelm them with ever more requests. Hahahahahaha! I just hope they check out the rumor I heard that there is mucho cocaine hidden around the White House. Also, I asked them to check out the rumor I heard that mooch-elle is a tranny. Man...those rumors persist.
LOL, thanks - that’s mine (that’s my twitter handle)...
I need to find some way to save the funniest replies before 0 pulls this site.
LOL!!
IMHO the fact that everyone is joking about it simply reinforces my belief that it will work as planned.
Nothing like this has been used since the 1920's in the Soviet Union, the 1930's in Germany, the 1940's in Red China, and the 1950's in North Vietnam...Just to mention a few...Although it was in person or via notes in drop-boxes instead of a website...The website technology will make this far more efficient than the other marxists (Stalin, Hitler, Ho, and Mao) could have imagined in their wildest dreams...
Like most of the "ruled" in those places, who initially just shrugged their shoulders and went about their lives, so will the "ruled" in the U.S.
History is very accurate about the consequences of that indifference...
IMHO, laughing it off as just another "dumb" obamo move is just another form of indifference.
Attack watch is exactly why we have a 2nd amendment and the primary reason I keep loaded guns around the house.
Hey #attackwatch, I saw 6 ATM’s in an alley, killing a Job. It looked like a hate crime!
Dear #attackwatch I was peeking through my neighbor’s window again-as ordered, and I spotted a BIBLE, a GUN, and an American FLAG. Help!
I love email and tweets from libs saying #attackwatch struck a nerve on right. No — really — it struck our collective funny bone.
Dear #attackwatch my neighbor won’t give me all her money even though she makes more than me. Look into this please.
Playing #attackwatch game is the most popular thing @BarackObama has created.
RT @BradMarston: I found a website with lies about .@BarackObama It’s WhiteHouse.gov
If there was ever any doubt in anyones mind that our President is clueless about how to lead a nation - #attackwatch just removed that doubt
Dear #attackwatch: Orwell’s 1984 was a cautionary tale, not an instruction manual.
Dear #attackwatch, there’s a rumor going around that Obama might be in over his head.
Who knew?
We are a nation of comedians, some of them quite good at it too.
That site set up by obama is proof that he is the stupidest man alive. Not only does he not know anything, he doesn’t even suspect anything.
My favorite was the one about the 6 ATMs killing a job in an alley and the poster thought it was a hate crime. I about fell out of my chair laughing.
For those more technically astute than I (I neither twitter nor facebook), why not just load it up with every manner of trivial junk that can be found??
My favorite: Hey #attackwatch I just looked at a map of the US. Someone has stolen 7 of the 57 states!
They can't take it down too soon, or it will look like conservatives win too easily. They'll hope to minimize the damage with a late Friday afternoon cave.

LOL!

I don't tweet [or plan too], but all this hilarity made me think;
ATTACKWATCH OMG! The Prez's Jobs bill is MISSING!! Must have been the same racist Teapartier who stole his tie at Arlington! Can U look into it? Thanx!
Today, we ridicule it and the man behind it.
This speaks volumes about the ever diminishing president.
...BHO is gearing up for the "Great Purge of 10-11"...
...Surprise!!!
