4. If I'm reading it correctly...

That many Republican congresspeople's sites are getting slammed/crashing. Less so the Democrats.

6. Congress Websites Down (HuffPo):

Edited on Mon Jul-25-11 11:45 PM by chill_wind

House, Senate Sites Not Working (UPDATE)

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/25/congress-websites-down_n_909289.html

The website DownForEveryoneOrJustMe.com confirms that the following websites were among those affected:

-Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.)
-House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio)
-Rep. Elliot Engel (D-N.Y.)
-Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho)
-Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.)
-Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.)
-Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.)
-Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.)
-Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa)

Not all are down though. Among the congressional websites that currently work without any problems is Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's (D-Nev.). The websites of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Jarry Nadler (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) also work.
