Uh oh, our beloved friend Chuck Grassley snuck into the Twitter machine again, and would you look at this! And don’t give us that “Oh you can only use 140 characters on dumb fucking Twitter” rigmarole. The man simply does not know how to spell “school” and simply does not care for the learning of said spelling. [Chuck Grassley's Twitter via operative "Tim H."]

I think he was trying for “skoal” rather than “school.” Because he’s hot for skoalrebel, too. Grassley and Sully are just going to have to fight it out.
Children are writing this nonsense.
Sigh. Grassley tweets like some fucked up club kid just getting home from a rave, or whatever it is that the whippersnappers call it these days. Crunkfest? I can’t keep up. But I can spell, sometimes.
Edumakashun akording to Grassli: Redn, Righn and that number shit.
“What a waste it is to lose one’s mind,” in the immortal words of fellow Republitard Dan Quayle.
Seriously, Chuck, lay off the corn likker before 5:00pm, ktnxbai.
skool is how all the KOOL kids spell it
Mahousu: Grassley’s YouTube handle is “skoolrebel”.
Every movie features him just cold packin’ his face with flavored cud, and ruminatin’ on them gay as hay-ell dictionaries, and shee-it.
Twitter was made for this idiot.
dummy! it’s spelt w/ 3 k’s, like so: sKKKool!
I’m pretty sure Shorts wrote this.
SKOOL? FUCK MAN IT SHOLD BE IMPEACHED!!!!111!1!1 IT IS GAY!
magic titty: I think not. Not enuf CAPS.
Saw Sen Grssly @ Blairsburg Skool vry mpressed! The Sen didnt answr Q re: rampant illitrcy n modrn age tho. Kan U Klrfy pozishn?
You save one character each time you write “skool” vs. “school.” He used the word twice, therefore he saved two characters. Don’t you wonktards know economics?
This must be fake. If Chuck Grassley was in schools indoctrinating our children this weekend, Glenn Beck would certainly have objected by now.
Take my Senator. Please.
That is the full text of Grassley’s most recent proposed rider on the Health Care Reform Bill.
And he’s the smart one of the bunch, bunch of carrots that is.
Rarely is the question asked: Is our Grassleys learning?
Why did Ms. Keehn invite the intersection of Cal and SE Hamilton streets to her skool? Oh, maybe she thought an inanimate crossroad would provide a lively entertaining counterpoint to the guest speaker.
You’re missing the real story. Chuck Grassley is a “Ms” style FEMINIST!!!!
Plz dont tell Grassley, his tweet could’ve been made less readable.
Thanks = Thx
for = 4
to,too = 2
and = &
but I appreciate that he wrote meetin vs. meeting. That’s how Sarah would’ve done it.
Stoopid seniter graslee shudnt try 2 talk on teh intrawebz. makes him loook like a stoopid. even more then everone nos he is alreddy.
I rather someone forget their manners altogether than to get this illiterate shit as a thank-you.
Unfortunately, his assembly took away class time from two important 3rd grade courses: “Corn: Our Lord and Savior” and “How To Successfully Lobby for Ethanol Subsidies.”
RoscoePColtraine: if he had just substituted “4″ for “for”, he could have at least spelled “skool” correctly. SMH
We can all save a letter by referring to Grassley as Fuck instead of Chuck.
Doris Ziffel: CHUck GrASSley?
See? They had to bus bus in astroturfers from other “skools” to muster up 200 for that “STUDENT town meetin”!
Be a tool, misspell school!
Please tell me he was high on drugs when he wrote that. I’m usually high while commenting, and I’d like to think I have slightly better spelling than that. Slightly.
Skool is the new Akorn.
In Iowa, Republican congressmen and senators don’t need to finish school. Steve King case in point.
Note to everyone on the planet, and that means everyone: Stop using this stupid Twitter thing. It is stupid, dumb, moronic, inane, ridiculous, and, did we say that it’s stupid? Please stop, today. Thank you.
thefrontpage: Bless you. Can anyone tell me who is Twitting Wonkette with those new buttons that appeared a month or so ago. I hope Wonkette can monitize that in some way, otherwise it scares me.
