What do you think of http://whitehouse.com/

There was quite a bit of talk about the domain name (it is a bordello in San Francisco) registered long before before 'the other white house' realized they needed to register more than whitehouse.gov to 'protect' schoolchildren who wrote a '.com' (as usual) instead of the necessary '.gov' to do homework research on government structures in their native country.

It seems the rather strict US rules about eminent domain is being enforced here. The site now announces that it is being updated and will be back soon. ie: the 'goddam gummint' have failed to secure the name for their white house.

What will happen next?

a) Nothing. It is as it is and everyone will accept that.

b) Will laws on eminent domain be made less strict so the government can expropriate the name.

c) Will the president paint his white house pink?

d) ... Write in your own solution ;-)

    Nothing should be done.  The bordello can operate as usual.  Whitehouse.gov is the site for the White House.  Children have to learn to follow instructions and should be using the internet with parents around anyway.  A little publicity will have responsible parents restrict the bordello from the home's computer(s).
