GeorgeWBush.com rejects non-American visitors

Bush's official campaign site seems to be rejecting visitors from outside North America.

Yeah, way to build a coalition, George.

[Thanks to Paolo for the link. Paolo comments: "This must be the most stupid move in the short Internet history."]

Google for "DoS attack" and georgebush.com to get an idea of why this happened.

They either had to cut off non-us domains, or not have a working site.

Seem to me that this action is just typical of Bush's foreign policy.

I dont like bush or his policies I am glad that as an American i can say something like taht and not have to worry about someone kicking in the door. I hope that he is beaten in the election then charged with many crimes that he has commmitted against humanity
