WTF? Anyone know what's up with "bushisamoron.org"?
DO NOT go there. There is a message saying that it has been seized by the department of Justice and that YOUR IP HAS BEEN RECORDED AND REPORTED TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES.

Here is a cached screenshot of the anti-Bush discussion board from back in January:

And here it is now (don't worry - also just a cached screenshot):

Anyone know what the statute they refer to is?

Notice there's a bunch of malarkey "debunking the lies" about the authoritarian Patriot Act.

Is this a practical joke, or the tip of a very ugly iceberg?

:scared:

2. Strange prank.
Totally shut down what WAS until a month ago an active discussion board and site, and put in these links to REAL DOJ pages?

So very weird.

3. Yeah, the site was probably hacked
...or abandoned out of sheer inability to cope with the freep attacks. The gifs are crap, and I rather doubt the Justice Dept would leave a calling card. They'd just rip the site down and it'd be 404.
