IS THIS WHAT THEY MEAN BY "SPECIAL INTERESTS"? [Emmy Chang]
The Democratic National Committee's page, democrats.org, currently links to a porn site. (Go to their links and click on "Willie Velasquez Institute." Better yet, just take our word for it.)


Editor's note: You really don't want to follow that Willie Velasquez link.

I felt it was my duty to follow the link just to keep the writer honest.... Yep, it's a porn site.... but with demorats, nothing surprises me.

It's a very funny cyber-squat. There really was a "Willie C. Velasquez Institute," at one time. Web-crawlers will go to prominant sites to check for posted links like this, then compare that list to open names on a DNS. When there's a match, the squatter buys the domain name rights, and !viola! -- Demoporn! Very funny!

Funny, but I doubt it's intentional, as sleazy as democrats are. What would they gain from something like this? It'll be changed as soon as their webmaster is aware of it.

Knowing demorats, they probably get a kick back of some kind from the site owner....

Hope you've sent it to Brit. :-)

I noticed some thing about their links page. Every catagory has links listed except for one....... Jewish American ........ When will most of the Jewish people wake up and see these bastards for what they are?!

I noticed that their links are very well segregated along the typical race and gender lines. They need to move the offending link to a separate catagory for "Hot Women", but that would be confusing since there are none in the Democrat party.

Looks like a garden variety lefty site to me too. You must have seen a hacker's work just before repairs were made.

This is a hoax! Go to www.dnc.org and follow the links and it isn't a porno site. The dnc is such a slime organization, we don't need lies and hacking to beat them.

My, oh, my... What a difference there is between .org and .net! (For those who aren't in the mood to check, none of the girls shown look Hispanic.) The DNC site was pointing to the .org URL. Willie must have lost his domain name and had to re-register as a .net site. (Kinda like when that one net porn site grabbed an Al Qaeda site's name.)

It looks like they entered a .org instead of the .net. By the way, I didn't realize that NRO was so prudish. I'm sure glad they warned everyone about the awful, terrible pictures of naked women in cheesecake poses. That stuff wasn't considered racy in my grandfather's time, let alone now.

I'm surprised that the DNC got on it so quick. I wonder who's assigned to monitor National Review Online or Free Republic.... Whoever it is will likely quit the DNC in the face of the overwhelming logic and reason on the two sites....
