I have a twitter account but have never used it, I think you just send a strongly worded twitter in reply. I suspect many people have.

I've got an account, but I can't really figure it all out. Can you respond to tweets, or just post your own?

Let's see, they accuse conservatives of dancing on his grave yet see no problem spitting on the graves of the victims of 9/11?

I have no idea. I signed up to follow a couple of blogs but then never got round to finding out how it worked. I think the way is to check the tag on the message and use that in the reply rather like an email address.

I noticed that he only referred to the "3000 murdered", but never mentions it was a :censored: "terrorist attack" .

quote] You're right. I put it poorly and didn't mean to equate 3000 murders with one expected death.

Said it clumsily. Didn't mean to equate one death with 3000 murders, only the contrast with late summer weather and sadness.

Didn't mean to equate Teddy's death with the murders of 9/11. Only meant small similarity: beautiful weather, tragic feel. [/quote]
