Conservatives utilize Twitter, Progressives disapprove…
By Rusty Shackleford | February 25, 2011
An update from Wednesday.
#MTLeg on Teh Twitter is my new favorite thing, and apparently, the world of Twitter has been copyrighted by AND is to be exclusively used by Progs. I respectfully disagree…
Anyway…what was I talking about…oh yeah, that’s right, the update:
`A vote on a bill sponsored by Rep. Kris Hansen, R-Havre, effectively overturning a Missoula ordinance prohibiting discriminating against gays, has raised a firestorm.
The battle has included threats that have been turned over to law enforcement.Hansen told the Havre Daily News Wednesday that she has received numerous threatening e-mails regarding her bill, which passed the House 62-37 and has been transmitted to the Senate.
“Two of them were so threatening that the House sergeant-at-arms turned them over to the Helena police for follow-up investigation,” she said.
…
One comment on the Internet was by Rep. Ellie Hill, D-Missoula. After she tweeted, “Nobody can out grassroot organize Missoulians. Your days are numbered, Rep. Hansen. It’s on,” some cried foul, saying in these days of politically correct rhetoric that kind of comment should not be made.
A tweet on the MontanaGOP twitter site compared Hill’s words to Rep. Denny Rehberg’s comment about placing judges on the endangered species list.
“You jumped all over Rehberg. Payback is hell. Why did you delete the tweet if you’re so proud of it?” is asked on a twitpic page listing Hill’s comment, linked to by the tweet on the GOP page.
Pretty sweet, eh? Random folks sitting at their computers utilizing their abilities to screencap stupidity. WHAT A COUNTRY!
Too bad this story will probably only see light of day to the folks in Havre…if only there were some sort of vehicle for getting info out to the masses…wait. What’s that that?! That’s right! TWITTER FTW!
That is all.
