Why does www.laurabush.com point to hope and change?
By | Wednesday, May 5th, 2010 | Catch-All

I came across an interesting discovery today when looking for Laura Bush’s upcoming book schedule. Take a look at www.laurabush.com and you’ll notice that it redirects to none other than www.barackobama.com, weird huh?

Buying up URL’s of a political opponent isn’t uncommon but buying a URL for the former First Lady of someone you never ran against in an election seems a bit odd to me. What exactly does the DNC hope to accomplish by redirecting people looking for information about the immensely popular Laura Bush, to the campaign website for Barack Obama?

Any thoughts?

Also, I did find her book schedule. Laura Bush will be signing her new book “Spoken from the Heart” in northern Virginia and DC tomorrow, Thursday May 6th:

12:00 PM, Costco Pentagon City, 1200 S. Fern Street, Arlington, VA

7:30 PM, The Smithsonian Associates, Lisner Auditorium, George Washington University, 730 21st Street, NW, Washington, DC

    Damn it! She’s here the day before I get back from college…just my luck… I miss Palin by a day and now I miss the First Lady…

    Obviously Obama’s people are thinking ahead to re-election time. Obama can’t let URL’s go to Republicans, even when it comes to First Ladies.

    How do you know Laura hasn’t seen the light?:-)
