I'm here on the ground, trying to contact our embassy staff, trying to register with the State Dept., trying to call the State Dept. Busy, no answer, 50 minutes on hold.

Duh? What an ASSH*LE comment.

Of course, I had family trying to register me, along with the offices of six different senators. My family members were told that State was not taking registration over the phone in the U.S.

Get your facts straight before making such a condescending post.

Shame on you.
