Obama calls for compromise amid stalemate in debt talks CNN International
Shortly after the president's address, problems were reported on the web pages of at least two high-profile Republicans -- House Speaker John Boehner and Rep. Michele Bachmann.
An error message on Boehner's site said "The web page cannot be found," and Bachmann's website said the "Server is too busy."
"There were temporary issues with sites hosted by outside vendors -- many have been resolved," a spokeswoman for House Administration Committee said.
Both websites were operating normally by early Tuesday.
The president's political speech was intended to convince an increasingly frustrated and concerned public that Obama's approach to dealing with mounting deficits is better for working class Americans and the nation as a whole.
In a televised response, Boehner argued the opposite, saying in televised remarks that excessive government spending caused the problems the nation faces and cutting that spending is the only way to solve the problem.

Tax Lien – This is the first step of the IRS to collect individual’s owed taxes. The IRS will legally claim of a taxpayer’s assets to guarantee payments. However, tax lien can be removed if the taxpayers already had paid the tax owed or if the taxpayers can assure the IRS that the taxes owed can and will be paid. Tax Levy – One of the harshest mechanisms of the IRS to collect unpaid taxes, to assure the tax liability, IRS will legally take the taxpayer’s assets. IRS is able to take the person’s money in the bank account, wages, cars and houses, and anything else that has financial value. However, IRS do give a 30 days notice before the process will be started to give taxpayers enough time to take actions. Wage Garnishment – It is also a form...tax debt - News
