Twitter Agitators

On February 19, 2010, in Blogosphere, by Henshaw

Over the last six months I’ve really enjoyed using Twitter. At first I didn’t see a real use for the platform, but now I’m not sure I can live without it. For breaking news and politics Twitter is essential. There is also a lot of riff raff to deal with. This really isn’t a indictment of “progressives” because I’m one person and I can’t really generalize a whole ideology based on a few bad apples, but lately I’ve run into some really partisan hacks.

Now on to the tweet of the day. As I mentioned a few days ago @top20reos has been a real joy to read the past few days. I pointed this fact out today and someone rallied to his defense. After a few exchanges (none, of which were logical) here’s the classic tweet from @ilovemytroops.

Actually, I don’t know who exactly I was talking to, but if her website is any indication it wasn’t anyone who was well respected. The liberal condescension here is amazing. I’m a fool and inferior? I tried four or five times to get a direct answer from this person, but all I got was random name calling and comments about Sarah Palin. What is it about Sarah Palin that is driving some of those on the left to derangement. I just don’t get it.
