July 13th, 2006 at 10:27 amI was in the beginning stages of withdrawal. I even called my computer geek husband to assure there was nothing wrong with my computer.
Sad how happy TP makes me huh?
July 13th, 2006 at 1:01 pmi was just about bill clinton for it! damn!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:01 pmGlad to know it wasn’t the American KGB locking down the site (joke, trolls :)
July 13th, 2006 at 1:02 pmDamn I thought I had been banned !Kept looking at the front door to see if the gestapo was about to break in .
July 13th, 2006 at 1:02 pm6. ditto…

After months and months of trying to engage people in discussions about politics, and growing frustrated by the general lack of apathy and disinterest, I was thrilled to find TP. At least they and those of us who post here actually care about our country enough to invest our time into being a voice for the left. I can think of far worse addictions for any of us to have. :) So, I don’t think it’s sad at all. The exact opposite in fact!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:05 pmwell, it is all about the internets and those tubes i was tellin’ you about. you see, the internets these big tubes and, well, when one internet is downloading a movie, or a terrorist manual or somehing real big..the tubes, they clog up!
its the tubes…
i remain,
the most honorable ted stevens, alaska
July 13th, 2006 at 1:05 pmdamn toobers
July 13th, 2006 at 1:10 pmTubes? How about some power-flush Hon. Sen.? LOL
Glad yer back up!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:10 pmdudes — you’re my homepage, so I was totally freakin’ out. Did you stop to consider how this was affecting other peoples internets? THEIR tubes! . . . Did you?!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:10 pmI was starting to wonder if there wasn’t actually something to Seixon’s “degree in computers’.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:14 pmAir America was down also(still is) – as is Randi Rhodes, Springer, etc… Are you all housed on the same server?
July 13th, 2006 at 1:24 pmDid someone blow a gasket on left or what? Man, whatever the problem was, its good to have my favorite liberal site back up and running. I missed the conspiracy theories……
July 13th, 2006 at 1:28 pmWHEW!
And I thought it was because I was being a bad boy or somethin’.
(spit–__tching) ;)
July 13th, 2006 at 1:29 pmThank you. I was suffering from withdrawal symptoms and beginning to develop paranoid theories about blocks by right wingers.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:30 pmJeez, I was getting really nervous, TPM Cafe is down too.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:32 pmI was beginning to think work had blocked you. Wouldn’t be the first liberal site they’ve blocked.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:35 pmThis was the best progressive thing this site has ever done!!!
Maybe it should have just stayed down!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:38 pmI was damn near panicking that the black helicopters would be hovering over the house due to the “you are not authorized to view this page” message. Glad you’re back.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:40 pmGood morning, Sharon. I was getting twitchy this morning, because I’m doing some training today, and knew I wouldn’t be able to get on TP much. And I missed most of the time before work!
Billy Bob, you were/are being bad. It’s all your fault. :(
July 13th, 2006 at 1:40 pmTP “Thanks for your patience”, Your welcome, note I was not patient, sorry. In fact I was beginning to think the bush bunch had something to do with the break down and was wondering if it was time to “lock and load”…LOL! Just in case the Blackwater buddies were coming to my door….Blessings all, we need them
July 13th, 2006 at 1:45 pmGot to git in some hay; later y’all.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:47 pm#23 troll0, you can always leave. And were gonna miss you to, not…..
July 13th, 2006 at 1:49 pm#13, you beat me to it — I was going to reference the same person!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:58 pmStevens needs to retire.
So glad to have TP back! Whew! It gets worrisome when it happens. I start thinking of sabotage. Then I read that other sites that I haven’t even tried to access yet have been affected as well — putting those thoughts together with the attack on the media and internet(s) by Bushie, I feel like I need to look in the street for an unmarked van with a satellite dish on the roof.
July 13th, 2006 at 2:02 pmProgressive sites get attacked by GOP/Bush Regime agents, so I hope nothing nefarious was done to shut TP down? When I saw the big “FORBIDDEN” thing come up on my PC screen > I thought am I barred now or some kind of ERROR?
July 13th, 2006 at 2:04 pmMeanwhile, the world is on fire. Looks like WWIII is on the horizon.
July 13th, 2006 at 2:06 pmI noticed Air America Radio was also down. Any connection? Conspiracy maybe. (Kidding…or maybe not)
July 13th, 2006 at 2:09 pmwhew! disappointed to not have TP with my morning coffee… but a good incentive to get out and mow early before the heat… have AirAmerica on my XM – turned it on about 11:30 (IL) – all’s well… crooksandliars and media matters were both fine…
sure makes you wonder though… how would we even know if it was some kind of reich-wing attack? seriously – would we? judd?
and, thanks for everything!
July 13th, 2006 at 2:34 pmwow! whatever you did to fix the problem has sure taken care of the s l o w posting of comments … so glad of that, but are you sure that your SPAM FILTER is still running?
July 13th, 2006 at 4:33 pmheh…
uh… did i speak too soon? that one took the usual while…
