bush website blocking foreign visitors

Son of a bitch. I was just thinking today how I should hurry up and order my "W: The President" t-shirt before they take them down after he loses the election. Well, W., there goes my $20. I was even thinking about a coozie or the shot glass collection as well.

 

Luckily I can still access it because I might need to buy some shot glasses because if Bush wins, I plan to take up drinking full-time.


This is totally off-topic but it seems weird that a man who makes a big deal about this recovery from substance abuse sells shot glasses on his website.

 

How can you recover if you don't hit rock bottom first?

 

The shot glasses and matching tumbler set are for digging after you have hit rock bottom.

 

Man, I need a set of those!

Unfortunately, my Dutch-based company IP address won't let me see the site.

 

bluedaddy, here's a mirror site you should be able to access even from hostile countries like Iran, North Korea, and France.

 

I would have thought Bush was doing everyone a favor.

 

Thanks for the link.

That's pretty funny.

 

Does it matter? It's not like Bush ever told people to go on the internets and visit GeorgeBush.com to go read his plans.

 

A Bush win would count.

 

Technical Breakdown of the move from Ars Technica

Just enter the public IP address shown above. They've only disabled the DNS mapping for foreign users.

 

I'm blocked here in England from accessing www.georgewbush.com

 

I can't get in with either of those links from here in Norway.

 

What their worry is is that, you know, you looks like you're from Norway, and you might be from a third world.
