For 90 minutes this morning, hackers upset with President Obama’s vocal stance on the disputed Iranian election made their voice known. A message telling President Barack Obama to mind his own business and not to comment on Iran’s election was posted.

A spokeswoman for the university, Diane Saunders, said hackers allegedly broke through the school’s computer defenses via a third-party software application that had not been properly updated. It afforded the hackers the ability to access the computer and address the president in the unflattering way: “Hey Stupid Fly Catcher Obama!”, according to the AP.
