Anti-American Outrage: Twitter Blocked On White House Computers


Jesus fuck is this even America anymore? First we elect a black president, and now the Twitter is shut off in the White House? And we don’t want to hear any of this “Security concerns” balderdash, because when we last had a real American president (that fat white sack of shit Dick Cheney), and he needed to get around the “law” or whatever, he just ran his own private email servers with Karl Rove from some Tennessee pedophile listserv.

    Didn’t the WH announce Wednesday’s press conference via Twitter? Maybe after Noonannyc joined up they realized it was over as a hip social phenomenon.

    I, for one, welcome our new twitterless overlords.

  12. It’s like so unfair to have your attention undivided. Twitters and texters have a Constitutional right to walk into people/walls/closed doors/traffic.

  13. Joshua Norton says at 1:33 pm, July 24th, 2009

    Big deal. You usually twit (twat?) from your cell phone anyway. God only knows what state secrets those interns and secretary’s are revealing as they gather behind the West Wing for a ciggy break and tweet like crazy.

    Today we all live in China.

  16. Andrew Sullivan will not let this oppression stand. Twitter is Obama’s Waterloo.

  17. wx insider says at 1:40 pm, July 24th, 2009

    Why does the White House hate America?

  18. Humpback says at 1:40 pm, July 24th, 2009

    Can’t use cell phones either. The WH is enveloped in a cone of silence.

  19. Monsieur Grumpe says at 1:41 pm, July 24th, 2009

    How are they going to know what Palin is up to?

  20. ManchuCandidate says at 1:43 pm, July 24th, 2009

    THIS JUST MEANS THAT BARRY THE MUSLIN IS AFRAID OF THE TWATTING GINIUZ OF SARAH PALIN. BARRY WILL BOW DOWN TO THE ROSE OF ALASKA. IN YEAR 12. ALSO. !!!!1!!!!

  21. One Yield Regular says at 1:44 pm, July 24th, 2009

    I have a hard time buying that this is because of “security” concerns, but I would have absolutely no problem with learning that it’s because of “intelligence” concerns.

  22. Cape Clod says at 1:45 pm, July 24th, 2009

    Christ, next they will make everybody work at solving America’s problems rather than spending the whole day posting shit on Facebook.

  23. norbizness says at 2:00 pm, July 24th, 2009

    Did some of those scamps at the White House Easter Egg hunt dye Bobby’s tie?

  24. zenferret says at 2:12 pm, July 24th, 2009

    One Yield Regular: Its “waste of government employees time when they could be solving healthcare, war and pestilence” concerns.

    Same reason they take all the games off. Well they left them on W’s.

    Gibbs: Hey, we’re nerdy, but we’re not THAT nerdy.

  28. gjdodger says at 2:59 pm, July 24th, 2009

    If the White House can’t Twitter, that leaves only Pete “Shit” Hoekstra to reveal U.S. troop movements. A sad day for America.

  29. lamen2 says at 3:06 pm, July 24th, 2009
