    For some reason George Bush's reelction website has been made inaccessible from outside the states. He must be slaggin off the rest of us, to get the xenophobic vote.

    Hey if he wants to limit exposure to his supporters..then great...all the better for us I say.
    I was more concerned about the blocking of IP's at the FVAP website...which IS needed by overseas voters.

    Read the site. Usual tripe. You can use google cache too.

    Well,

    all I can say is that its nice to see that Bush wants non-US-resident American citizens to have one more reason not to vote for him. They are, after all, already one fo the biggest "unknown" factors remaining.

    They forgot to block this one: https://georgewbush.com/

    What amazes is that anyone outside the US wanted to visit Bush's site anyway.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,592 ✭✭✭Ro: maaan!


    Well there's probably more people visiting it now that it's blocked than there was when it was open to all...

    What bothers me most is the redneck-black-urbanised vote. I would like to think it was a given he won't be re-elected - I would hate to see him re-elected by a slim black vote!

    If I was an american I'd be in McVeigh territory if the guy gets re-ellected!


    Direct message Dubya: Really hope ya lose man! Kerry sucks!... But less than you!. You have not served your people...

    Had a look at that site

    Theres a lot on it about some fellah thats been giving George W a bit of bother-John Kerry I think.
    It says he's a liar as he keeps saying that under George W's watch a huge mass of explosives went missing in Iraq...which of course isnt true the site says


    Meanwhile the international atomic weapons agency tell us today that it did disappear under Bushes watch.

    The website isn't bad, actually it's worth visiting both Bush and Kerry's site. The videos of Bush (ooh Matron) and Kerry on Bush's site are of lower quality and are basically showing Kerry being a flip-flopper, and Kerry's videos are of BUsh being an idiot.

    For a summary, visit the new JibJab anim It's Good To Be In D.C. :)

    I'd love to know how Florida pans out for the accidental president again!


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,443 ✭✭✭✭bonkey


    The ballots went missing by accident of course. And everyone knows that the US postal system is so good that such accidents only occur aproximately once in a 4-year period ;)

    Here's another example of Bush's wonderful security policies. Read the rest of the story, you'll crack up.
    Homeland Security Agents Visit Toy Store

    Thu Oct 28, 5:20 PM ET Strange News - AP

    ST. HELENS, Ore. - So far as she knows, Pufferbelly Toys owner Stephanie Cox hasn't been passing any state secrets to sinister foreign governments, or violating obscure clauses in the Patriot Act.

    So she was taken aback by a mysterious phone call from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to her small store in this quiet Columbia River town just north of Portland.

    "I was shaking in my shoes," Cox said of the September phone call. "My first thought was the government can shut your business down on a whim, in my opinion. If I'm closed even for a day that would cause undue stress."

    When the two agents arrived at the store, the lead agent asked Cox whether she carried a toy called the Magic Cube, which he said was an illegal copy of the Rubik's Cube, one of the most popular toys of all time.

    [...]

    Magic Cubes are used by terrorists. Clearly the shop owner was supplying terrorists
