Tuesday Outlook: Bailout Brouhaha

Just got this message when I tried to contact my US Representative

"Messaging Service Unavailable
The House of Representatives is currently experiencing an extraordinarily high amount of email traffic. The Write Your Representative function is therefore intermittantly available. While we realize communicating to your Members of Congress is critical, we suggest attempting to do so at a later time, when demand is not so high. System engineers are working to resolve this issue and we appreciate your patience."

AND, you want these guys to manage $700B with no strings attached (you really want to know where the &700B went, sorry due to ext ordinary demand, we stopped keeping records) and after that, run your health care (sorry, that life saving operation is temporarily unavailable) plus any other socialized program they can think of? Heaven help us if they succeed!!
You think its just an isolated government bungle? Try buying gold coins from the US mint; sorry, we ran out.
