Tax Day Tea Party Issues with TaxDayTeaParty.com - Explanation
Posted: 29 Mar 2009 06:44 PM PDT
An international effort to shut down the TaxDayTeaParty.com website has been detected by our technical staff. Internet experts commonly call this type of attack a Denial of Service (DOS) attack. Corrective measures are being implemented, and the site should be fully accessible again within 48 hours.
Unfortunately, these DOS attacks are very difficult to trace. In this case, the attacks have come from both domestic and international sources. All we know for certain at this point is that a group of people want to stop this movement. We will not allow this to happen. This citizens’ movement will not be stopped.
We will be issuing an official press release on this issue on Monday, March 30th.

Only my speculation: It's possible that FR won't answer on this. If they say "yes" then that could prompt some idiot to test it. Saying "no" is just foolish.
So, although I also wonder I must assume that FR is a sophisticated site with sophisticated techniques for self-preservation. IMHO.
TaxDayTeaParty.com is still inaccessible this morning.
We surround them.
CHINA?
If you are not taking flack, you are not over the target.
There should be one or more back up sites. Redundancy is fundamental in Information Technology.
We are striking a nerve with the socialists. They know we’re coming for them and they are afraid.
International effort. Now why would anyone outside this country be involved in this attack?
Hmmm One wonders who the DEMOCRATS have partnered with.
Hey OBX, maybe I can make it down there after the VA Beach Yea Party. I like the 1700L start time for hte Edenton event.
