Just as the healthcare drama in the capitol reaches a grand finale, congressional officials are warning employees to avoid the DRUDGE REPORT!
The Senate's Committee on Environment and Public Works issued an urgent email late Monday claiming the DRUDGE REPORT is 'responsible for the many viruses popping up throughout the Senate.'
The committee ordered hill staff: 'Try to avoid' the DRUDGE REPORT 'for now'.
On Monday DRUDGE served over 29 million pages with NOT ONE email complaint received about 'pop ups', or the site serving 'viruses'.
The site was seen 149,967 times since March 1st from users at senate.gov and 244,347 times at house.gov. [10,825 visits from the White House, eop.gov]
The Systems Administrator may want to continue taking her antibiotic until the prescription runs out.

I am reminded of the movie, “Blast from the Past”, where Brendan Frasier’s character, Adam, is warned by his Father to avoid the Adult Book Stores because of “invisible poison gas”!
Trying....really hard....not to think of......AAARGH!
When I was in high school, one Friday afternoon the head cheerleader announced on the PA that all students were commanded to come to an assembly the last hour of the day. The library and classrooms were unusually full the last hour of the day with students who opted instead to spend their time studying. I didn’t know that head cheerleader was now working for the senate....
Yours is certainly the comment of the day.
Well, they did not say “COMPUTER” viruses.
They tried this once before.
If this warning isn’t based upon evidence, then Drudge should sue.
Amazing how Democrat politicians publicly attack private citizens.
Wow, he really does look like Rahm Emanuel.
Wow. They’re really desperate, aren’t they?
Get rid of the crap from Microsoft and virus' vanish.
Whatever you do, don't touch the red button!
Obama admin is worst ever in history of presidency! Drudge only pulls up things from other news sources. So he ads his own comments...
I read Drudge 3-4 times a day. First thing I pull up on my p.c. every morning.
It would appear that I did not pick up a virus.....
Barbara Boxer chairs that committee. She had to have authorized this. Drudge must have been really, really bugging her lately. Our future: tinpot members of Congress telling us what we can and can’t read when it comes to POLITICAL COVERAGE.
Oh and don’t listen to that Rush Limbaugh either.
That reminds me of my second grade teacher telling the kids not to tell the parents about something....
Since Drudge does nothing more than present news from other sources, are the Dems recommending avoiding all “unpleasant” news from their staffs? This will really sharpen their grip on reality.
I think it has A LOT to do with Drudge’s coverage of Rahmbo’s ‘shower scene’ yesterday. It was an EPIC day for Drudge. LOL! They don’t like it ONE bit.
Back in the 90’s the Drudge Report sent me to FR and I’ve been stuck with it ever since.
