Title

The idiocracy has arrived.

Description

Thanks to Twitter, we now have even better access to the splendidly corrupt, morally bankrupt and intellectually vacuous individuals that we send---every four years---to Washington to run America. As detailed in the article, <a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gap9wCaolRYguYQesA2i2Yr98yLgD98LUSA01" source="Google Hosted News" author="Erica Werner">Senator says Obama 'got nerve' to push lawmakers</a>, representative Grassley---who happens to be a Republican, but don't fool yourself into thinking it matters---"tweeted" the following nugget of pith: <bq>Pres Obama you got nerve while u sightseeing in Paris to tell us 'time to deliver' on health care.

It's not at all surprising to see these fools using the technology without thinking about the ramifications of appearing to be a simpleton. Even better, if you're into more subtle irony is the degree of respect afforded this mis-spelled and petulant missive throughout the article (as in <iq>Grassley's attitude is significant because [...]</iq>) as if we are supposed to take these blurted turds of what we will have to accept as passing for "thoughts" until proven otherwise seriously.

Brawndo, it's got what you need. It's got electrolytes!
