Twitter So Scared of Andrew Sullivan, Iran

We know a little bit about disputed elections and revolutions and riots and such, and they all have one thing in common, throughout human history: Twitter. This is why Andrew Sullivandemandedthat the always-broken Twitter not undergo some crucial scheduled maintenance tonight.
