Several Congressional websites were defaced on Wednesday following President Obama’s State of the Union address. Congressmen Brian Baird, Spencer Bachus and Charles Gonzalez each had their websites hacked by the ‘Red Eye Crew’ from Brazil.

The hacked web pages were defaced with abusive language directed at President Obama. The defaced websites were all hosted in the house.gov domain. Several Committee sites were also hit in the attack.
