Does anyone have good technical understanding of web-site hosting? Is it feasible for this site to have had so many hits in the past 2 weeks. The site must be hosted on some really high-end intrastructure. Only the likes of Google, eBay and Amazon have this much traffic.

The population of UK is 60 million so we have all visited it once plus all the international hits?

Or is this figure over-inflated deliberately and if so why?

unlike the European countries it didn't have colonies,
after WW2 in which the u.s lost millions of soldiers in Europe
to help free it ,even though Germany never officially declared war on the U.S
it was the only country with nukes ,Europe and Asia
were pretty much ruined - it could have easily taken over the world ,and didn't.
Korea and Vietnam were fought against the communist not in order to concore those countries
after 9/11 the u.s attacked 1st the country that was the base of al qaida- what is illegitimate about that??
Iraq -maybe more questionable but not illegitimate ,the Iraqis were a threat on the U.S.
the killing now are not done by Americans.

The idiots of big oil trying to put the American people out to dry by increasing the gas prices to $3.18 up from 3.05 last week. how ever the oil prices is less than $70 a barrel. So, should gas prices be one of the issues in the 2008 election? Should we boycott Big oil?

I read Yahoo news each day and it tells about death counts from Iraq every single day and deaths in the U. S. do not make the headlines, such as infants dying by accident or other deaths that are just as tragic. I am beginning to believe that this is a media thing that they "get off" on .

All may not agree with this previous President's opinion, but, at least he is telling it like he sees it . . . rare for even an 'ex' politician!

Hurray for freedom of speech, and thinking . . .!!!

Why are the Saudi's being allowed to buy GM's plastic division when they make one of the major componets of a biological weapon. There have been several terrorists come from Saudi Arabia and it seems like our wonderful homeland security department should step in and stop this from happening.

I think because of weapons, and of religous matters.

I am proud to be a citizen, but the government and press lie all the frieken time. they pull troops out when they shouldnt and wouldve have won but nooooooooooo(they have been doing for at least 40 years). we need to kick Bush out and get a good president but that won't happen unitl at least 2012 b/c as far as i know these candidates suck @$$. freedom of speech lets all these dumb people protest stuff and most of the time they are wrong(if this was a different country they would be killed or thrown in jail). i like freedom of speach but people in general doesn't know what that means and they think they can say anything. we have ghettos, murders, crazy people,........ people in general dont use common sense most of the time. we have horrible drivers, the dollar bill is supposed to be worth practically nothing in 10 years,.... i could go on and on but tell me what you think.Why cant people would only do the right things be president?

Anything asked that even APPEARS anti-jewish is immediately squashed, but you can ask anything against Muslims and that seems to be OK. Tell us, YAHOO

Can a nice jew tell me? John Ashcroft's mother was called that when they lived in Chicago. I thought Goy meant nation or people.

When the jewish owned press deals with it, they say Israel is defending itself and is retaliating. Palis never retaliate or defend themselves, eh?

One was kidnapped years ago, one was kidnapped earlier that week, and they found the boys and returned them home. The press conferences didn't give much information, understandably. Any one have any follow-up information on them?

Every weekend there seems to be a colossal death toll of American soldiers. At first I thought the insurgents were planning their attacks on these days. Now I realize its only that the government has waited till Saturday and Sunday to release this information. Do you think this is a deliberate ploy by the government to release bad news on days when it will receive the least national attention so as to reduce anti-war sentiment?
