Is DU nearly, completely hosed for you too ?
   
Geeez ..... I can barely get my toe through the door ....

I see no one else complaining, so I am assuming it may be my end ....

So .... Is anyone else experiencing problems getting DU to comply ?

Any 'Failed To Connect' messages ?

When it does connect: Is it coming up in HTML, with images and elements missing ?

Yeah ... That's me ....

2. Yes, and it's very frustrating.
   
Just about everything I click on results in the same connection failed message you're getting.

3. yes, it's barely functional for me right now
   
Lots of failed to connect messages, lots of really slow hourglass action. Replying to this post took about 30-40 seconds before I could actually start typing.

5. Lots of connection problems.

The bonfire's really big; a lot of bitchery and whinery from the primitives, who should on the other hand be grateful that Skins' island actually exists, and that the Constitution-wrecking George Bush hasn't suppressed it.

15. Others have mentioned it AS WELL AS experiencing similar problems on other progressive sites.

27. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a calculated denial of service attack by right-wing hackers.
   
What would surprise me is that right-wingers would even know how to do it themselves. They would have to outsource it to India.

28. It's been glitchy for some time
   
My tin foil hat is beginning to wonder if there is interference.

Maybe, maybe not.  I dunno.

Not at all.
If I could do it I would make sure the DUmp was broadcast every day to everyone.

Course if that happened your own would shut you down,not us.

We don't need to attack DU.  It shuts itself down everytime the moonbats go to a deeper DEFCON.

bob_weaver is the DUmmy who posted the Ebay listing of little Trig Palin.  Yet, he wonders about calculated attacks.
