Well speedblue.org is a zone. You cannot have a CNAME at
top of zone as it contains atleast NS and SOA records.
Adding a CNAME would break the no CNAME and other data rule.
Some nameservers don't enforce this but it causes problems.
See RFC 1034 for why this is not allowed. BIND 9 does
enforce this.
If you need speedblue.org to point to a http server add its
address or use a fixed http server which returns a redirect.
