Politics / Teh Internets Sam Brownback: Master of Twitter

Posted by Paul Constant on Fri, Nov 25, 2011 at 11:29 AM

Sam Brownback will not stand for it when teenagers post mean things about him on Twitter. He will tattle and make those teenagers pay:

A Kansas teenager got in some trouble with her school for comments she posted on her Twitter account — in which she claimed to have trashed Gov. Sam Brownback (R) to his face during a field trip...Brownback’s office flagged the tweet to the event organizers, who in turn passed the complaint on to Sullivan’s school. This got her called to the principal’s office...

What a hero. What a great man. What a wonderful use of Kansas taxpayer money. Those teenagers have gone too far with their malicious Twittering, and Sam Brownback is going to solve this problem once and for all.

If you check #brownback and #heblowsalot, you'll see that this jerk is probably really regretting tattling on that girl. The twitter explosion against his is hilarious and appropriate!

Hey now, Paul, internet bullying of Republican governors is no joke. Republican governors live in fear every day of the hateful words of their teen constituents. Some of them get so depressed by these campaigns of terror, they can't even get out of bed in the morning and get to work on making the world a more terrible place.

I agree with Fistique. Who will stand up against this cyberbullying? I even heard Sam Brownback started self-cutting this week. Though maybe it was just a shaving incident.

@3 & @4 Before you know it, the pressure (from teh gays!) will be so great that Brownback will be forced to "hike the Appalachian Trail" with someone to "lift his luggage"!
