Here’s the current center graphic of John McCain’s website, which links to his Plan For Small Businesses, such as this suffering barbershop in what appears to be a rich, conservative seaside command center, like Orange County. This is not a “buisness” at all, idiot! Go back to second grade! There’s no such thing! [John McCain]

Ugh. What a duochebag.

…first the BEER and now the BUIS…NESS, have he no decency!

SayItWithWookies June 10, 2008 at 6:04 pm

Wow, they fixed that pretty quick. Not that Wonkette’s being wiretapped or anything…

shortsshortsshorts June 10, 2008 at 6:04 pm

OH MAN that picture makes Detroit look like a palace!
It must be a Republican ghetto in the O.C., because there is no such thing as a Republican ghetto anywhere else.

NotUrEvryDayWEzl June 10, 2008 at 6:05 pm

They corrected that quickly… good for them! Now if only they would learn what the little red squiggly line means WHILE they’re typing… but, I mean, his IS new to this whole internets thing

BUIS = Back up iron sights (http://www.talonarms.com/talonarms/index.php?cPath=42&main_page=index)

“Small Buisness growth” means a plan to arm Detroit with state of the art tactical weaponry.

metropolitan June 10, 2008 at 6:12 pm

yeah, they corrected it, now it says “mccain’s vision for big buisness growth for better campaign donations”

jagorev June 10, 2008 at 6:16 pm

Regarding the webmaster cracks: McCain’s server is actually running on the fairly professional IIS 6.0, while BarackObama.com is running on the out of date and inadequate Microsoft Personal Web Server. I find this ironic, but I’m also a huge dork.

Our Wonkette is using Apache on Debian, like all good terrorists everywhere.

StrangelyBrown June 10, 2008 at 6:16 pm

MCCAIN: Are they booing me?
LACKEY: No sir! They’re saying “boo-isness” — buisness!
MCCAIN: My friends, are you saying “boo” or “buisness”?
CROWD: BOOOOOOO!
ROMNEY: I was saying “buisness”…

Speeling is for A-leets.

This picture reminds me of how I’m going to Catalina Island on the 4th of July.

Plus, I can practically here some sad-sack intern getting yelled at.

He’s been writing the website through a dictaphone.

I know we’ve already talked about it, but that “Golf Gear” heading is SO F’in incongruous.

The “i” and the “s” are just trying to switch sides, much like 35,000 Hillary Clinton supporters!

satyricrash June 10, 2008 at 6:23 pm

This is none of your buisness, morans.

tunamelt June 10, 2008 at 6:25 pm

Maybe this is Old English for business. Spelling was more fluid in olden times.

It’ll be buisness as usual in Bush’s third term.
Note the eerie lack of people on the street.
They’re huddled inside their luxury fear-bunkers, or being tortur… er, waterboarded at Gitmo.

weirdiowasculpture June 10, 2008 at 6:33 pm

In Old French it was pronounced “bwees-nay,” which meant “freakishly Gigantor jowls.” Today, of course, “small buisness” is an anachronism, since you can’t really have small freakishly Gigantor jowls.

jimh June 10, 2008 at 6:35 pm

[re=12708]El Bombastico[/re]: I just thought that Wonkette commenters hacked in and added typos to make it look like McCain didn’t know how to spell. Aren’t all of Ed’s comments the fault of the wonketeers?

AnnieGetYourFun June 10, 2008 at 6:38 pm

Eh, this is one area where I think their right-on. I never liked spelling it “business” anyway. “Buisness” makes more sense.

I can’t remember – would this grant me trucknutz points or whore diamonds?

iwillsavethispatient June 10, 2008 at 6:43 pm

[re=12765]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: “their” right on what? Or are you being two-clever by half?

superfecta June 10, 2008 at 6:47 pm

I thought the word was ‘bidness’ now anyway – hasn’t McCain been keeping up with his urban slang?

Do we not have available to us more substantial lulz than a web typo? Slow tuesday indeed.

Texan Bulldoggette June 10, 2008 at 7:03 pm

He’s just getting the hang of using a newfound contraption called the keyboard. He’s used to dipping his feather (not that’s not a euphemism) in an ink well & writing on sheepskin, which it took him forever to get used to after carving hieroglyphics on stone tablets.

Texan Bulldoggette June 10, 2008 at 7:06 pm

Ooops, meant “no, that’s not a euphemism”.

Honcho June 10, 2008 at 7:09 pm

He also could win over Perez Hilton by promoting “the McCain vision on Small Biz Growth”.

‘course it ain’t Detroit; not a wig shop, party store, or bump shop within 10 feet of the cameraman.

Slightly OT: Can Wonkette afford a login button up top ‘cuz I could be the laziest commenter in the world and getting down here on this ancient notebook is a joke. Oh, and since we’re correcting 2nd grade essayists–is the dropped ‘g’ on the “loggin” page intentional or is Wonkette lazier than me?

Johnny_Zhivago June 10, 2008 at 8:05 pm

WadISay June 10, 2008 at 8:25 pm

Just BTW, the “small business” depicted here is the real estate development company that owns this piece of Salsilito to the horizon. The guy with the barbershop is a “serf”.

You’d think old people could spell right on account of all of that Scrabble.

I prefer to pronounce it “bwees-ness”.
Which reminds me of Beezus of Beverly Cleary fame. That’s it– it should read “Small Beezus Growth”!

REPLY TO THELMA:

LET ME TELL YOU I’VE HEARD THIS TOO. FIRST OF ALL, CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THE AL QUEDA / IRAN POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (AIPAC) IS EVEN ALLOWED TO OPERATE IN THIS COUNTRY. I ASSUME IT IS MOSTLY A FRONT FOR THIS OBAMA FRAUD. I AM SO PROUD THAT JOHN MCCAIN DOES NOT SPEAK BEFORE SUCH AN ORGANIZATION OF MARXISTS, LENINISTS AND MUSLIMS AS THIS. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE WITH CONNECTIONS TO THE US SECURITY FORCES HAVE THIS AIPAC SHUT DOWN?

I ALSO THINK IT IS TIME TO SECURE THE BEACHES OF THIS COUNTRY AS WELL AS THE BORDERS. I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT WHEN WE GO TO THE BEACH (WHICH IS JUST ON LAKE EFAULA, MY HUSBAND AND I KEEP A 24 HOUR WATCH OVER THE DAUGHTERS WITH OUR M4A’S. THESE TERRORISTS COULD EASILY RAFT IN AND TO TAKE UP STRATEGIC POSITIONS AT THE BUS TERMINALS, STEEL MILLS AND AUTO PLANTS AND DISRUPT OUR ECONOMY.

FINALLY, I WANT TO SAY I LIKE WHAT JOHN MCCAIN SAID TODAY ABOUT SMALL BUSINESS GROWTH. I RUN A SMALL BUSINESS (HORSESHOES FOR BARBIE DOLL HORSES) AND I AM PROUD OF MY CONTRIBUTION TO THE AMERICAN ECONOMY. WHERE IS OBAMA ON SMALL BUSINESS. I HEAR HE WOULD EXPORT IT ALL TO INDIA. HOW THE HECK CAN I AFFORD TO MOVE THE BUSINESS TO INDIA? I CANNOT EVEN SPEAK INDIAN, ALTHOUGH MY GRANDFATHER ON MY MOTHERS SIDE WAS CHEROKEE.

THANK YOU FOR LISTENING,
