October 30th, 2004 · 2 Comments

Hiding in the Bushes

October 27th, 2004 · 2 Comments

I found this blog entry about not being able to access George W Bush official site from Japan. It appears it’s the same thing from Sweden. So it seems all countries except the US is blocked. He might as well, can’t be more than one or two deranged supporters in the rest of the world.
