I can't believe what I just saw... |

ON MSNBC Dish Network provider, there was an ad for "Obama shoes"...OK, bad enough, but this is not what got to me...
The web address is: Obamashoes.oom
which also looks like Obamas hoes.com
Is it me...or is it Memorex?

I wouldn't take it as a deliberate insult, just poor website naming. It's what happens when we run words together. Like Experts Exchange and Mole Station Nursery. There are a more examples of it: http://snagsta.com/people/saiphin-poole/lists/top-10-worst-company-domain-names5245?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1enjoy :P
