SLOGANATOR
The background story is as follows:
Earlier this year, the website for the Bush-Cheney campaign - the real one, paid for by MBNA America and Richard Scaife - featured a "create your own banner" tool, where you could enter your own slogan and print out your own poster, with the Bush-Cheney logo, and a note at the bottom "paid for by Bush-Cheney '04, Inc."
The best "organization behavior/sociological" part is that they must not have thought about the fact that Democrats, of course, wouldn't be able to get enough of this. The original sloganator accepted everything, then it started censoring profanity and words like "dictator," and "evil." Nevertheless, many clever folks exploited the sloganator to their own ends before its sad demise only a couple of weeks after its birth, and its mourners assembled some of the best for the slide show.
This is absolutely hysterical in terms of "what were they (not) thinking"? The link is best enjoyed with the sound on: http://homepages.nyu.edu/~meo232/sloganator/
