If it is for security, it's a rather poor security measure, as it was
still browseable by IP address afaik..

I read a article about how the site got hacked into...recently. Did
anyone else read this? If it was hacked then because this is a reaction
security measure and not a "we want to keep all non-amercians from
seeing our stuff". I would guess it is a security measure has it is easy
to see mirrors of it outside the country.

Hi all,
Want to view www.georgewbush.com from outside the US? You
can't: Access denied. This "security" measure (!?) can easily be
avoided using a proxy in the US or any anonymous surfing website
though.
So, what is it he doesn't want anyone from outside the US to read ?
Cheers,
SkyLined
