Denis, Then be impressed because according to every report I found it was the actual Congressmen and Senators who were tweeting. I do like your term twits—good designation for people who twitter.

I’ll answer your question about a leader’s hiring Friday.

Donna, Good term! Heh, do you think that all the farting twittering will bring down the price of gas?

Tools can be used, misused and abused. Twitter, after Facebook and Myspace, is a marketing tool so I would not be surprised if the twits came from badly paid intern (given I would be real impressed if most people in the congress know about this technology). Which leads to an interesting leadership question: what do the people you hire tell about your leadership style ?

As far as galaxies go, pick any that passes by. Chances are it will be far enough that you will never hear from us again ;)

I call the tweets “mind farts”….

Not a twitter fan, either.

Hi Jo, I only mentioned Barton by name, the link mentions many others, both Democrats and Republicans.

Does anyone think before they click anymore? A few more years and maybe I’ll get used to it.

I am amazed not only by the rudeness, but the sheer stupidity of sending a Tweet that many can read from such a place. Did he not imagine that this would become a topic of public discussion?
