Wow. wow...
Talk about serious. This problem can really take root if something intelligent and proactive isn't done immediately. I can't imagine a legitimate compromise of so many government employees (especially Senators). You'd think that if they were targetted there is some other motive in mind. Frightening!

You gotta love how one day your bank account stops working without notice. When you call they say "due to a security concern we have to lock your account".
