Did Jon Stewart Screw Up Last Night?

[HFishbine]

Okay, I thought the bit John and crew did durning the Emmies with the "Skiif Boat Vet" ad against George Washington was hilarious. But the "ad" included a web site address, www.skiffvets.com. This domain resolves to the Swift Boat Vets for Truth site. How much extra traffic did Jon manage to send them?

2. If anyone went to the

swift boat vets site, had half a brain, and actually read what's posted there, it could only help John Kerry. Those people are delusional and hateful.

3. "skiffvets.com" registered Sunday night?

How long does it usually take for Network Solutions to activate a website registration?

(I'm not claiming a conspiracy, simply noting that these guys are set up to move quickly.)
