A specific page on Wikipedia freezes Firefox

more options

Firefox seems to hang permanently when I load the Blue Dog Coalition page on Wikipedia. I tried loading it with JavaScript disabled and in Safe Mode, to no avail. It loads fine in IE8. I tried saving the page from IE8 and then opening the html file in Fx, freeze.

All other pages on WP load fine. I asked other persons to test it (Fx 9, Fx 10), freeze.

Is this a bug in Fx, a bug in the specific page or can I resolve this myself?
