Ourspace

Young Joe Anthony started the amazingly popular myspace.com/barackobama page with the goal of one day seeing the man whose values he supported, become the saviour America has been waiting for. After years of painstaking web design, late nights of building a social network 160,000 strong, and unwavering support for one of the most cherished presidential contenders in history, Anthony has finally had one small part of his dream fulfilled.

Monday night, with the help of MySpace staff, the Obama for America campaign decided that Anthony had contributed his fair share towards their project, and took over the site. At first, Anthony offered to sell the site, and the work he had put into it for the last two and a half years, for a hefty $40,000. After much LOLing all around, Anthony cheerfully agreed to just donate the site to the campaign. As an inside joke, the page now states "Paid for by Obama for America".

Work must go on though, as being homepageless has left Anthony nowhere to store his 160,000 friends. Rumor has it, he can currently be reached through myspace.com/duncanhunter.
