My online program was and is fully accredited Matty, and not all online degrees are crap like you are suggesting. Most colleges are doing online courses / degrees now, and some will even wire you into an actual class.
I didn't see my college on that list, (didn't look hard either) but that is not the only list of accredited universities.
This is a site that my degree is accredited by:
Higher Learning Commission - HLC Home

That is a list of colleges / universities that are held to higher standards.
Eesh. Jsarno, my condolences. The only accredidation that matters, when it comes to business degrees and MBAs, is the AACSB. These regional commissions, like the one you linked to, are parts of for-profit companies designed to funnel students towards non-AACSB accredited programs. They're in it for the money.

I actually have an open position in my department right now for which we're searching for candidates with MBAs, and we've already dismissed a few candidates with "MBAs" from non-accredited schools. I won't even interview them.

I know this isn't easy to hear, and believe me I'm taking no pleasure in telling you, but in my opinion those schools are practically scams. PM me if you want to discuss it further.
