Message to Bob Sherman's people you are making your Congressman and thus the people of Congressional district CA-27 look like idiots. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Obviously some one is updating Congressman Sherman's Website. The Real question is who belives its actually any good. The other question is why is this person still living in the year 1999. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;This website looks like it should have a dancing baby on it. What is scary is it actually looked better in 2005. See &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdyPHRZVHkI/AAAAAAAAABM/63DG7O08OiQ/s1600-h/a3.png"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322286214736584258" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 327px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdyPHRZVHkI/AAAAAAAAABM/63DG7O08OiQ/s400/a3.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bob Sherman you are a Congressman from one of the Richest Districts in the Country and I have seen better websites from guys running for alderman in Alabama. Seriously I have. Please fire your webmaster. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Congressman Sherman you cant tell me this site actually works for you? The only saving grace is that no one advertisied who made this site. They should be thankfull otherwise they would be out of business. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;You are from Califorina you represent a state that prides itself on technology and you have one of the most backwards sites I have ever seen. &lt;/div&gt;There is only one site I have seen which is worse and its some dude who is using wordpress ahhhhh:(&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I dont know what is scarier the pic or the website. You want to Run For Congress dont make your campagin sologan I aint no Senetor's Son- not only will that look bad on signs everyone will know that the other guy is probably more qualified than you. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdyPoC9dCSI/AAAAAAAAABU/-0NxRgLWEyc/s1600-h/a.png"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322286777797249314" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 299px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdyPoC9dCSI/AAAAAAAAABU/-0NxRgLWEyc/s400/a.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Do you think Adriel Hampton just woke up one day and said I am runing for congress I dont care how stupid I look in a tshirt. Well it is California. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I do have to give Mr.Hampton credit for making a ning account a lot of folks dont even do that and it looks a lot better than his website.

I became obsessed with politicians and how they ran their online campaigns last year. I am really agnostic when it comes to party affiliation but was super impressed just like others as to how Obama used Technology. I actually volunteered for both the McCain and Obama campaign so I could see how they used technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I started to look at every political website I could find and its funny how certain design features are common across the board. Its just a matter of how ridiculous the politician make himself look. It never ceases to amaze me about how dense these old guys can be when it comes to this stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At my roommates request that i do something with my life this blog will be my observations as to how absurd Political American Websites Can be hopefully this wont fade out after a week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please post comments so I know some one is reading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that spirit my attention turns to the distinguished gentlemen from Tennessee- Zach Wamp who was recently quoted as saying about Rush "Frankly, we need to listen more to the people back home, and not so much just the voices out there. There's not much difference between entertainment and journalism on some fronts."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this blog turns in to History/ Entertainment&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So it turns out Zach wants to be Governor of Tennessee which is cool but what is ev&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/Sdxop2SHoKI/AAAAAAAAAAU/ASv4yAmU3Xc/s1600-h/hot+daughter.png"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322243927800520866" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 216px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/Sdxop2SHoKI/AAAAAAAAAAU/ASv4yAmU3Xc/s320/hot+daughter.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;en better is how hot his daughter is wozzers!!!! Great taste in clothes too nice pockets. &lt;a href="http://thehill.com/cover-stories/50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill-2008---40-more-2008-07-29_2.html"&gt;http://thehill.com/cover-stories/50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill-2008---40-more-2008-07-29_2.html&lt;a href="http://thehill.com/cover-stories/50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill-2008---40-more-2008-07-29_2.html"&gt;hill.c&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://thehill.com/cover-stories/50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill-2008---40-more-2008-07-29_2.html"&gt;om/c&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://thehill.com/cover-stories/50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill-2008---40-more-2008-07-29_2.html"&gt;over-stories/50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill-2008---40-more-2008-07-29_2.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What funny is apparently she didn't comply with every whsh of here father so Rep Wamp took the hinges off the door taking any sort of privacy away from her. That's one way to put down a rebellion. I wonder what he would have done with the founding fathers- maybe quarter soliders.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whats funny is how unattractive he looks on his website. Zach Wamp is actually an attractive guy dont forget he responsible for half of his daughters DNA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He should have hired a professional photographer rather than the guy at WalMart to take some better photos. I like the one where we get a chance to meet Zach and his gut is out with a Sports Coat. All the people are waiting behind a velvet rope. Here Comes Emperor Zach a man of the &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdxpnlzNUbI/AAAAAAAAAAc/3-Zi_nO2P20/s1600-h/wamp2.png"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322244988527792562" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 197px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 197px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdxpnlzNUbI/AAAAAAAAAAc/3-Zi_nO2P20/s320/wamp2.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;House; Imperial and Casual all are lucky to meet him. &lt;a href="http://www.zachwamp.com/www/docs/1/about-zach-wamp"&gt;http://www.zachwamp.com/www/docs/1/about-zach-wamp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Your from Tennessee man hang out with some okales drink moonshine don't look like a big time oil executive or some one who wants to rule the world &lt;a href="http://www.zachwamp.com/www/docs/2/zach-wamp-on-issues"&gt;http://www.zachwamp.com/www/docs/2/zach-wamp-on-issues&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The worst is the website design. I know they say people in Tennessee are not that sophisticated but for goodness sake it is as if some 4th grader learned some CMS tools, photo shop and html and decided to open a web design company.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although what do I know I am using Blooger.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It gets better because the guy who decided to design this piece of shit advertised his company on the front of the site. Its a company called SiteNow from Williams Web.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a hint Zach if the company you work with has a piece of shit website chances are you will have a piece of shit website. Chattanooga is not where the best web designers come from. But after all the websites I have archived this is par for the course for republicans. The design looks like something from 3 years ago. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know why the GOP Candidates have such bad sites. The one good thing is the volunteer form much better than what I normally see. The only problem is they link it twice once for Volunteer and Email Updates. Also the first option to Volunteer for the Future Gov of Tennessee belongs to Alaska.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The way the content is laid out is so screwy and the pages are way too long. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Check it out for yourself.... &lt;a href="http://www.zachwamp.com/www"&gt;http://www.zachwamp.com/www&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William Smalls&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;PS look how screwy they named the link it doesn't even say / Home&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2856744446006212301-375552936478551254?l=websiteamericana.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://websiteamericana.blogspot.com/feeds/375552936478551254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://websiteamericana.blogspot.com/2009/04/zach-wamps-standard-crappy-website-for.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2856744446006212301/posts/default/375552936478551254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2856744446006212301/posts/default/375552936478551254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://websiteamericana.blogspot.com/2009/04/zach-wamps-standard-crappy-website-for.html' title='Zach Wamp&apos;s Standard Crappy Website For Tennessee'/><author><name>William Small</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09378402901366012460</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_E5rxSYmmdlg/SdxniH_cLqI/AAAAAAAAAAM/dKXCqezaYh8/s72-c/Wamp.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
