Just stumbled across this. No idea how long it has been this way or will remain so. But for now, whitehouse.gov goes directly to whitehouse.gov/error-404.html, where "The file you have attempted to access cannot be found."

The White House main page is one big error message.

This seems deeply symbolic.

UPDATE: This also happens when you click on "Current News," which is supposed to take you to http://www.whitehouse.gov/news. Of course, if I were Bush, I wouldn't want to see the word "news" anywhere around me, either.

Can't even manage a website. Wow.
