A Google Webmaster Help thread has a Googler explaining to a disgruntled searcher why spam makes it into the Google search results.

Jack from Google explained that it is hard for Google to prevent all spam attempts on their index. They do their best, but “the internet is a big place,” Jack said. Jack from Google said:
