Democratic White House hopeful Barack Obama launched a new website Thursday devoted to dousing "smears" against the first African-American with a serious shot at the presidency.
The site at www.fightthesmears.com debunks false rumors doing the rounds of the Internet and right-wing media outlets -- including one recent assertion that Obama's wife Michelle has been caught on tape slurring white people.
Obama's main campaign website already had a fact-check section to refute rumors such as the Christian candidate is a secret Muslim. But aides said the new site went further in inviting supporters to spread the word

HA!! This is awesome.
Wouldn't it be cool if McCain did the same thing?
Oh... no, I guess not... he'd have to use video of himself, would be ah, counterproductive. Hm..?-

This is great but has anyone ever introduced him to hackers? It'll make it that much easier to "spread the word" of lies on his own site. For his sake i hope he has some kind of computer junkie overlooking the progress of his site.
