Victory! The Sweet Sweet Smell of Victoreee!

Ladies and Gentlemen may I announce a successful conclusion to this blog’s campaign to associate the Deputy Prime Minister, a certain Mr John Leslie Prescott PC MP, with a certain indelicate phrase has succeeded.

Thanks guys, I’m so proud.

To further test this, please go to http://www.google.com. Type "fuckwit" into the search box. Hit the "I feel lucky" button.
Enjoy.

To understand why, look here, here, here and here.

Update: Commentary from this blog’s Parliamentary mole:

And boy, is this accurate!

    Tim Worstall has won! I meant to help earlier but imagine this is 1942 and so like some nations I am turning up late to the battle and will claim victory as mine! What? – oh it is to associate…

    Congratulations on executing your Googlebomb flawlessly, Tim and crew.
    Now, however, it’s Technorati “tags” you have to go after. Still no entries there….

    Googlebombing

    This is a splendid result, for the reasons Tim enumerated. Yet I wonder whether we might not aim higher. After all, few people are likely to stumble across this result by accident. Could we try to direct people searching for John Prescott to…

    Googlebombing and name calling lowers the standards of political debate. It weakens your own credibility to do this: would you rather be labelled as a Daily Telegraph of bloggers or a Sun? Or perhaps you can no longer tell the difference?
    Tim asks: Who’s having a political debate? Snarling with rage and spitting with anger at the poltroons who run our lives, yes, but I’d be doing the same with any group who thought they could run my life better than I can.
    And I’m never going to be considered the DT or the Sun of blogging. Dick and Jane’s Guide to Libertarianism, maybe, but nothing quite so well produced as either of those two.
