Washington Examiner: Amber alert program down due to government shut down. There are no depths to which BO won't sink.

Just when you think the Spite House can’t sink any lower …
'Drink water'=essential; Amber Alert not "@softwaresimian: @JammieWF Meanwhile, http://t.co/yv00TS1R98 is showing no signs of the shutdown"

Hey, priorities!
That’s right. As Twitchy reported, the Amber Alert website has gone dark. Because, shutdown theater.
NEW: The federal Amber Alert website is down b/c of the government shutdown, but the system is still working. http://t.co/pdowBIjreh

But, as this Twitter user explains, the website itself serves a key function.

The #SpiteHouse thinks a website telling kids to drink water (DUH?) is more "essential" than the Amber Alert website. Priorities.

Even kidnappers need drinking tips? RT @TheRickWilson Michelle Obamas "drink water" site is up. Amber Alert's down. What fresh hell is this?
— Marcus (@MarcusHUSA) October 7, 2013
AMBER alert is down but Michelle Obama's "Drink Water" page is up and running. Nice to see we have our priorities straight in DC.

Since Let's Move is considered more important than Amber Alerts, can "Drink Up" water bottles at least have missing children ads?

@pamnsc Its truly sad that this President will act so reckless over something as serious as the Amber Alert. He should be ashamed of himself
— Andrew L.❌ (@AndyLbd73) October 7, 2013
You can’t shame the shameless.
But you can fight back.
.@repjoecrowley @chuckschumer @sengillibrand Is it acceptable for @BarackObama to play politics with the Amber Alert website?
— Mike (@ThePantau) October 6, 2013
Dear @GOP: Hit @TheDemocrats HARD on the Amber Alert website shutdown. Immediately. For real. No, seriously. Really.
— Mike (@ThePantau) October 7, 2013
Amen.
And vote the vindictive Democrats out. We can see 2014 from The Spite House.
Update:
Well, looky here! The Amber Alert website is back up:
