U.S. Rep. Betty McCollum was one of 43 House members who had their Web sites hacked last night.
The Uptake reports that the sites were vandalized with profanity and anti-Obama messages, signed "Red Eye CREW" and included the words "FROM BRASIL."
Minnesota Independent noted that McCollum's site was still down this morning, and it remained so at 10:25 a.m., with the note that it is currently undergoing site maintenance.
