Curbing the relentless private exploitation of America's natural treasures, especially in the West, he brought millions of acres of land into the public domain, helped by the indomitable Gifford Pinchot (1865-1946), head of the revitalized U.S. Forest Service.

First, it is much easier for Internet parodists to produce material similar to the original than, say, those working in print or broadcast media. Then there is the question of the domain name, or URL. Although the Bush camp preemptively bought dozens of domain names, including georgebush.com, over a year ago in an attempt to stave off such parodies, they were unable to cover all the bases. And thus on the unofficial site in question, it takes quite a while...
