WTF?

Maybe someone can explain what's going on here. This morning I got an e-mail from a pseudonymous address at a domain called "bushcanwin" or something like that. It led me to this site:
Calling All Conservative Bloggers!

You exposed RatherGate by proving the CBS documents were fake -- nice work! But now the liberals have found a bunch more documents so our work is not done. Let's get to work proving that these are fake, too!

Dick Cheney's DUI
George W. Bush's DUI
George W. Bush's Second DUI
Bush and Cheney have excellent judgement and would never get behind the wheel while drunk.

Memo to Ken Lay
Second Memo to Ken Lay
Ken Lay has been indicted on felony fraud charges -- there is NO WAY he was this close with President Bush.

Bush Daughters' Possession of Alcohol
It must be fake: This is clearly a liberal media snow job on these poor girls.

Osama Warning Document Part 1
Osama Warning Document Part 2
This so called "official document" suggests that Bush was asleep at wheel before 9-11. Get real.

Are there any other fake documents we are missing? Please send them to us so we can post them on this site for conservative bloggers to debunk.
This site is obviously a joke (it becomes even more apparent if you follow the links). It looks like a phony website put up by liberals to have a joke at conservative bloggers' expense? If so, have I been misidentified as a conservative blogger* so that I might embarrass myself, or have I been correctly identified as a left(ish) blogger and let in one the joke?

*I mean, it would be tough for me to make it much clearer that I'm against Bush's re-election, yet somehow Adsense keeps posting pro-Bush and Bush-neutral ads on the site.
