Earlier today, when I tried to get through to the Capitol
switchboard (202-224-3121) I got a busy signal. Libertarian blogger
Tom Knapp reports from St.
Louis:
Kit Bond's office is giving me an "all circuits are
busy" response; Claire McCaskill's number has been forwarding to a
"voice mail box is full -- goodbye" message all week.
I've heard several people say that this level of
switchboard-meltdown reaction is rivaled only by the thermonuclear
response to last year's Kennedy-McCain "shamnesty" bill.
