This is very odd -- All the Senators' sites are down |
|
I went to Ted Kennedy's site recently and it said "Not Found"
Same for Frist, Schumer, and Lott.
What is up? Is their servers screwed?

2. www.senate.gov isn't responding at all... |
|
So I suspect it's system-wide. Crash, hack, server bug, ???

5. Yeah. I just tried to email congratulations to Mary Landrieu |
|
for her fiery support of the Dems, and couldn't get through after several tries.

through firstgov.
Denial of service attack? or just too much legitimate traffic for the servers to handle?
With the way Bush trashed and propagandized the US Government's internet sites, anything is possible.

I figure they either shut the server down, or it was overwhelmed. Instead, I made phone calls to both Hagel's and Nelson's offices.
There was no explanation as to why the server was down, just the usual "try again later" stuff.
Keep the pressure on the R's any way you can though. They are looking like fools on C-SPAN2.
