And you'll get a nice surprise

And you know google intentionally put that there because the word failure doesn't show up on the page at all.

Do a search. Three pages come up:

Biography of George W Bush
Biography of Jimmy Carter

WOW - that's pretty funny... although a little surprising from google. If you do a full search, the next link nested under the Bush one is for Jimmy Carter.

Google didn't do it. It's called "Google-Bombing" and is a concerted effort by a bunch of people to get Google's search to point to a specific page.

Someone who didn't like Sen. Rick Santorum did it; Google "santorum" and see what they did (first search result). WARNING: You will probably wish you never read it, so proceed at your own risk!

"'Jelly Hat' sounds silly," I told Prince. "How about something poetic, like 'Raspberry Beret.'"

Try typing "Josh Zimmerman" and hitting "I feel lucky." Somehow I've become the Josh to feel lucky about.

The bush thing is super funny though. Google is the best.
