Irish PM got mad knows his name used by porno website

Unknown - wired.com, 15 Jun 2000

Irish Prime Minister, Bertie Ahern, could soon be the owner of a pornography site bearing his name for a mere US$35. TransNames, the registered owner of the domain name bertieahern.com is now offering to sell it back to the prime minister for the price of transferring the domain. All this comes after Ahern ignored repeated earlier requests to buy back the name from TransNames for a substantial sum of money, prompting TransNames to say it would auction off the domain instead. Bertieahern.com was being auctioned as part of a package that included thetaoiseach.com, (taoiseach is the Irish word for prime minister), marymcaleesesucks.com (McAleese is the president of Ireland), and bertieahernsucks.com. Attempts to sell the site to the highest bidder yielded a lot of interest along with a final bidder claiming to be Bertie Ahern, who eventually reneged on the $5 million bid.
