Default Googling "miserable failure" no longer returns George W. Bush

Recently, Google was trying to steer itself clear of a system error, which rubbed its ends with the USA’s topnotch politics. Caught in a technical faux pas involving its search engine, the officials were dealing with an Internet prank directed towards the American president, George W Bush.

Due to this error, which was first noticed in the year 2003, Internet users typing the phrase “miserable failure” into the Google search engine were being lead towards president Bush’s biography featured on the White House Web site.

In an announcement made on Thursday, the Google officials said that the issue had been resolved and now the search results for “miserable failure” would not lead to the president’s portal.
