I used to believe that there was no point in me getting a Twitter account because I'm too boring for anyone to care what I'm doing!  :lmao:

I got one recently and really like it - I use it like an RSS feed of my favorite pundits and I'll occasionally tweet a link to an article I thought was interesting.  I actually have 13 followers.  :-)

I love it, I don't tweet much although I've tweeted a little more recently, I tweeted Michael Moore a couple of times the past couple of days ::) but I get tons of news from it. I have I think 10 people following me, a couple of people from here, if you want to add me my name is conservagrl.

You have a new follower.  :-)  I'm CactusCarlos if you'd like to follow me. 

Check out http://www.foundersweb.com when you get a chance - it's like Twitter, but conservative-based.  It doesn't have the audience that Twitter does, but it's also a good source.

This wasn't a tweet, but a Facebook post that was too good not to share.

Khadafy in Libya. It's hard to believe he's still a colonel. Forty-something years and the guy has not had a promotion -- and he's in charge of promotions! That's gotta tell you something.

With my site being up and down over several days, the Conservatives4Palin site is now down as well. We're assessing the situation

It looks as though all Palin supporting blogs and site are down. There may be a coordinated attack, more soon

We think this is more of a Godaddy issue than an attack on Palin sites, many sites affected
