Hackers Vandalize 20+ House Websites — A screenshot of Google's search result for "Republican House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform." (The actual site contains only the line of text seen here)

Hackers attacked more than 20 House websites last night, replacing their entire contents with the message: “f--- OBAMA!! Red Eye CREW !!!!! O RESTO E HACKER!!! by HADES; m4V3RiCk; T4ph0d4 -- FROM BRASIL.” Many of the sites hit belong to Democratic freshman, but senior members and Republicans were hit as well, as was the Republican Oversight Committee. See Politico for a good list of those targeted—including South Carolina's Joe Wilson.
