Some time ago http://georgewbush.com (not www.georgewbush.com) worked here but not anymore.

That guy must be trying hard to lower opinion of himself abroad with unecessary bs like this.

WHY DO I GET " Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://www.georgewbush.com/" on this server. "

Use a proxy , then it functions
Needlessly to say www.Johnkerry.com functions cantbelieve:

edit: gbush site also doesent work in other parts of the world

That site was a subject to several DOS attacks. That's why it was cordoned off.

Probably because too many Europeans were spamming it with hate mail.

Same reason non-supporters aren't allowed into the oppositions speeches.

Oh, and that big "We Hate Europeans" banner on the homepage now might have something to do with it.




*snicker* NOT!


Apparently the site suffered an outage on Oct 19 and may be the work of terrorist chemical weapon attacks against the site (virus <--- get it? Oh nevermind).

You can visit the site thru this proxy for example

I donīt think itīs only because Europeans spammed it, itīs also due to the eletion talk and his
promises that would surely get many Europeans to go "WTF???!?!?!?". I mean the "Agenda
for America" that by some reason seems to have something negative to do with rest
of the world in every sentence.

From countless other places? Like from the rest of the world??? I hope you are right still . sounds just strange

Virus is still strange. They suffered from a virus and blocked the site from a number of places? wtf
What if it was dos worm or something like that? In this case the virus would also have afflicted US computers , unless someone made it only to spam packets from certain country ips to achieve this.

I am very suspicious about this after usmc.mil was down here for like a year here .

There was a thing on it earlier this week on the BBC webpage, I may do a search for it later, I'm currently cleaning the computer room ;)
