Obama Launches Change.gov
mallumax writes "Obama has launched Change.gov. According to the site 'Change.gov provides resources to better understand the transition process and the decisions being made as part of it. It also offers an opportunity to be heard about the challenges our country faces and your ideas for tackling them. The Obama Administration will reflect an essential lesson from the success of the Obama campaign: that people united around a common purpose can achieve great things.' The site is extensive and contains Obama's agenda for economy and education among many others. They first define the problem and then lay out the plan. Everything is in simple English without a trace of Washington-speak. The site also has details about the transition. According to many sources, Obama's transition efforts started months ago. The copyright for the content is held by 'Obama-Biden Transition Project, a 501c(4) organization'."

Now you can be ignored by politicians faster and more efficiently than ever before!

Well posting this on slashdot should ensure that their servers get a proper stress-test.

It has been a long time since that has happend.
I know you are new to politics so I thought I would let you know. Now that you have won, you can stop campaigning for about 3 years.

Hey, I know where Africa is, and I can name the countries in NAFTA... and I'm running for US Senate as a Republican in 2010! :-)
We deserved to lose this last election, and its time to set aside our own bitterness over how the left wing trashed Bush, not act like kids in retaliation, and do everything we can to help Obama succeed. We can dicker over free enterprise vs the government when we all have jobs and this country is at peace.
This is my sig.

Yeah but it's only mandatory for white people, so it's ok! ~
You are using English. Please learn the difference between loose and lose; they're, there, and their; your and you're.
Of course, I tried e-mailing them yesterday to point out that their privacy policy looks to not match their actions (as they're linking to Google Analytics, so the cookies used to tracking people _are_ being shared with another website), and the e-mail address _on_their_privacy_ page bounced with an authentication error.
So I e-mailed postmaster@ptt.gov, and got:

Didn't you get the memo? Americans should not be made to feel uncomfortable in any way shape or form. They should not be responsible for any of their actions if said actions can be blamed on: television, video games, music, supernatural influences and/or drugs. The blame is *never* to be placed on the individual or the individual responsible for care of the minor/incompetent individual. When all else fails, medicate.
Two years of debates, at least 20 in the primary and three in the general. Unremitting press coverage. Two books, one specifically on Obama's political philosophy, written by the candidate in his own hand. Huge websites with encyclopedic overview of everything the candidate intends to do. This country's (to date) most expensive political television ad compaign, with issue ads, attack ads, 527s, the whole schmear.
I admit I am having trouble finding the "promise of improvement," but then again I can never see the Angeles national forest when I drive through it: there's too many trees on either side of the road and they obscure the view.
Don't blame me, I voted for Baltar.

Dear Slashdot: next time you want to mess with the site, add a rich-text editor for comments.
Commie bastard.
Don't worry; he's lied several times about his relationships, religion, and childhood.
Yes. He is a muslim, which is why he goes to the crazy christian church. His had sex with William Ayers, and, he spent his childhood as a giant radioactive spider.
Thank you for letting us know about all the crazy lies you saw on the internet.
To be fair, that's the main reason he got my vote, though. (Big fan of Crush, Crumble, and Chomp.)
