Bahahaha

This article demonstrates how arrogant Chaffetz is. Chaffetzforpresident...bahahaha.

I guess

reading comprehension is not one of your skills. That's ok, we all have flaws.

I am so tired of reading about a guy with NO SUBSTANCE! This is the same Chafffetz who said, "NO EARMARKS!" without reform. Oh wait, NOW he's saying earmarkds are okay as long as it's convenient for me.

This guy is a piece of work. I can't stand that I voted for him.

Dear "I guess"

It seems you are the one without reading comprehension. CotMan© HAS purchased presidential domain names.

He forgot cotmanforpresident.com and eagarforumlovesme.com

cotmanforegoist.com sounds right to me.

Embarrassed

Wow? Gotta to be pround the he represents us!

Wrex

He should probably go out and buy these domains quickly:

wingnut.com
lunatic.fringe.com,
bug.eyed.weasel.com

Just so nobody makes any mistakes about him....

The Congressional clown never ceases to amaze. So what if someone else named Jason wants to run? Is he the only Jason around? And if conservatives are frosty to Hatch and Bennett, you just gave me another reason to consider voting for them. The right wing nut conservatives are dangerous - to Utah and to America.

It is not uncommon, and often very shrewd business practice, to purchase domain names so that someone else doesn't confuse customers, constituents, fans, whatever. This is just one more time that Jason Chaffetz shows me that he and his staff are thinking and acting in the best interest of what he is trying to accomplish.

Go Jason!

From the comments here and elsewhere, it's obvious that the left wing loons are hacked at Rep. Chaffetz. He must be doing things just right.

I'm a happy constituent.

Dear Wrex

What IS it with this guy?

Bug-eyed weasel?
I think he looks like Ronald McDonald.

Momma always said

If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all

Go Jason!

I would vote for Rep. Chaffetz for a lot of things, but he said he wasn't running for something else.
Didn't slam the door is all.

I think he is being smart, reserving those names, so someone doesn't post something up looking like him.

Rep. Chaffetz for 2010 US House.

Given the childish remarks against Rep. Chaffetz, I'd say he is doing a great job upsetting people who have no common sense or decency. Not a bad crowd to have against you!

Look at the voting record and the issues - this guy is FANTASTIC. What on earth do you even mean by substance? He says what he means and then he votes accordingly, it seems pretty simple to me.

Last I checked, a guy who sleeps on a cot rather than a fancy suite is pretty low on my list of egoists. He's doing his job and doing it well.

I am a supporter of Senator Bennett, he has done a fine job despite what some of you say. This Chaffetz is nothing but a double talker grab the moment by saying whatever to get elected mentality talker.

Do it all the time

Buying up URL derivatives of your name, product, or service, especially in a public setting, is a standard practice in marketing. Criticizing such a standard practice shows either:

1. You are not too bright when it comes to the new rules and practices of electronic media

2. You are angry he registered the URLs before you thought of buying them to discredit him

Either way, it seems to reveal your ignorance.

(Except, of course,if you are WREX, because you are HILARIOUSLY witty with those URL suggestions. No one would have ever thought of that. Please post a second comment with more suggested URLs. You are brilliant!)

Jason for President?

Hey Chaffetz staffers, time to get back to work and off the DNews comment pages.

Jasonforpresident.com? Really? This guy's ego has no limits, and the right wing crazies never fail to drink the Kool-Aid.

Utah County Dream Ticket

Chaffetz/Schanze 2012!

Slogan: "Derange we can believe in!

PARANOIA

Buying up websites so no one will "hurt" him?

YIKES!

What's next?

Digbads

I'm a big fan of Rep. Chaffetz. I will do all I can to get him elected next year. We need a younger, more energetic Senator with some "right" ideas.

Chaffetz said on twitter

and facebook it wasn't him buying up the chaffetzforpresident websites, so perhaps picking up the few he did was smart.

@Digbads
I agree, we need a younger, more energetic Senator. That is why I plan on voting for Cherilyn Eagar for US Senate.
