One Error Message Is Worth a Thousand Words
When it comes to the do-nothing Republican Congress we've watched the last two years, it's hard to sum it up easily -- but David at Swing State Project must have thought he was seeing things when something this appropriate came up on his screen. He was trying to access the Minority Party (Republican) part of the web site for the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee -- now ably chaired by Democrat Henry Waxman -- when he got this error message.



How often does a web error message give you something that poetic? Firefox can't find it? We've never been able to find Republican oversight of the Bush White House.

Go visit Swing State Project to see it for yourself.

You can read more from Bob at BobGeiger.com.

2. Not to trash the joke, but...
Wasn't the name of that committee something else under the Repugs?

It didn't have the word "oversight" in it bc there was no oversight. this just illustrates it nicely:)

3. I want to send this to Republican acquaintances who tell me
they are going to keep an eye on the Democrats.

Yeah, because the Republicans have done so much.
