President Barack Obama's campaign Web site was hacked Tuesday, with pranksters inviting users to nonexistent events hosted by "Commy Obama."

Obama's campaign adviser Ben LaBolt told The Washington Examiner that the site's security had not been compromised. The events calendar on which the meeting was listed, intended for mobile devices, is user-generated.

The notice for the nonexistent meetings, supposedly taking place Tuesday in Washington, listed 21 anti-government criticisms, including "Politicians tell you what you want to hear and offer to provide things for 'free' to get votes."

The hack did not target a specific politican or party. LaBolt said campaign staff removed the information as soon as it came to their attention.
