    Thank goodness, I thought I’d finally been banned. :}

    This thing is all messed up…

    If I end up commenting twice, please forgive me.


  5. Al says:

    it’s worse than you think… i keep getting told my comment has already been posted – it hasn’t… or that i need to fill in the name and email boxes… and once those boxes had someone else’s name and email filled in… good thing i’m honest and have a poor memory…

    Naaa, I doubt it’s a dos attack.

    Look around the web at all the progressive sites. They are all linking to each other about the 9/11 ABC fraudumentary. They are especially linking to this site.

    It’s all good. Especially if we can get ABC to shit can their gop-ropaganda


  11. g says:

    while the site is having problems you should go to your local paper and tell them to write a informative article on the Democratic proposal called ” Real Security Act of 2006″.

    this is what i wrote to the NYTIMES

    Your newspaper as well as others write numerous articles about the democrats not proposing any ideas. Please write a comprehensive article about what the democrats have proposed today “Real Security Act of 2006″. I am not interested in what republicans think about it but why Democrats proposed this and what they plan to accomplish.

    Thank you


  12. For Truth says:

    Hi Zooey, you are forgiven.


  13. katy says:

    this is hilarious!
    For Truth – i’d sure like to know how you got your email name!
    it’s right here on my screen!

    BTW – are you really in labor??? (from another thread)

    and if TP feels like deleting posts, it’s ok if you nix #s 5 & 7…
    hey – there’s that Al again! too funny…


  14. rm0mcx says:

    What can I do to help.

    Let me know.


  15. katy says:

    i mean 5 & 6

    and now i see another email address… “g”? …i won’t tell…


  16. g says:

    Hey Katy,

    No not in labor, just a joke, I’m a guy. And the e-mail name was from a freind who thought that up years ago, I took it.


  17. Steven Hilton says:

    What does “heavy traffic” mean, exactly? How much traffic does TP get regularly?


  18. Fort Truth says:

    Hey Katy if you didn’t see my earlier post, no real labor here, and I thought the e-mail address was pretty funny, so I used it.


  19. Sharon Cox says:

    Wow! Thank’s for the heads up…Someone with the letter g and their email address was on mine….Like you Katy, I just deleted and put my own back in…..Let the game’s begin..Thank’s TP….Blessings all…..Peace for the children of the world

  21. Sharon Cox says:

    For all those people who didn’t accidentally get my e-mail address its superpants2 at hotmail dot com. See that was easy. I don’t even know if its still operational, I really don’t use it. Sharon I won’t tell anyone your e-mail address.


  22. For Truth says:

    Woops I posted my superpants e-mail with Sharon’s name, not my fault, waaaa!


  23. Tobey Tall says:

    Hi I just accessed this site and My Name was Sharon Cox ….cookies ???


  24. Tobey tall says:

    hello im not Sharon Cox


  25. For Truth says:

    Uh, I think its more than heavy traffic guys, I was “logged in as Amanda” just a minute ago.


  26. Sharon Cox says:

    This is almost as much fun as hijacking a site late at night…Hay, true,Zooey,BnF,Madashell, Juan C, Unbelievable,Toby, Cyra, Wayne and Jay are you all out there.?…Should we.? Nah …..Later…Blessings.


  27. James says:

    TP has surged in the network traffic rankings…their normal ‘reach’ (past 3 months averaged) is 233 users per million users. It’s now 460 users per million users and that could be understating the actual number.

    There’s also the problem for TP that increased users bring increased page views but more importantly increased video views which are probably slowing down TP’s servers unless they have made the (smart) decision to have TP the site and TP videos located in different locations with different network providers…


  28. katy says:

    WOW! this is ca-razy! i can just imagine judd’s IT guy pulling out his hair!

    ok- For Truth – whew! no labor! i THOUGHT you were a guy!
    heckuva joke, man! i was all excited about the first TP baby!

    so, WHO is “superpants” ??? that’s rich!


  29. Marie says:

    I am not surprised that your site is overloaded.
    Many other websites are linking to yours.
    Everyone must be checking here for the latest.

    PS I ALWAYS have trouble getting into TP.
    Now you have made my name and Email disappear so I have to remember to type it each time.


  30. Zooey says:

    Hi Zooey, you are forgiven.
    Comment by For Truth

    Thank goodness…


  31. unbelievable says:

    This is fun… Wonder who I’ll be when I hit the post button… :)


  32. unbelievable says:

    Is this anything like that five second CBS delay after the Janet Jackson boob outtage? TP is scanning comments for conspiracy theory? :)


  33. trueblue says:

    OK, fellow hijackers, where are you?

    So I guess I’m the “point-man”?
    Well, OK then.
    C’mon in. No one is around!


  34. James says:

    Who am I? Where am I? What the heck’s going on?


  35. Zooey says:

  36. Jackie says:

    If you think your loaded now wait till Nov and watch for the numbers to be out of sight. This is one of the best web site and the comments are great.
    Thanks


  37. Jay Randal says:

    I was busy all day yesterday, so just came on to read the threads, and TP is having posting problems? Must be Karl Rove’s cyber nerds pissed off about TP pushing the boycott on the phony ABC docudrama on 9/11!
