Facebook Blocking Ron Paul Search (UPDATED)

UPDATE (14:13 EST): The search is working now.

Go ahead and try to search Facebook for “Ron Paul”—here’s what I got:

“Search is currently unavailable. Please try again at a later time or right now.” But as much as you try, you still get this message. So maybe search is down, except… if I do a Facebook search for “Paul,” I get this:

So Facebook search is working just fine, but won’t give you results when you search for Ron Paul. Hmm… now why would that be happening?

And does this have anything to do with Microsoft’s recent acquisition of Facebook?
