Chuck's email to his young assistant:

Can you please submit this to my Twitter Page thing?

"Mr. President, I find it peculiar that you mentioned it was "time to deliver" on our health care issues while visiting the great city of Paris. We are still on schedule and many of our staff are working on the weekends to address this. I am hurt that you were unaware of our progress".

Chuck's Assistant posts:

Pres Obama you got nerve while u sightseeing in Paris to tell us"time to deliver" on health care. We still on skedul/even workinWKEND.

"When I first heard about the tweets, I'd assumed an overeager Grassley intern had gotten ahold on the senator's Blackberry and typed a couple of ridiculous messages without Grassley's knowledge. Alas, the senator's office later confirmed to the AP that Grassley actually tweeted these messages himself."

^^saying that sounds cool and all, but it's completely false.

6/8/2009 5:48:31 PM

Twitter actually has potential as a marketing tool. I must admit this in order to keep my job.

My dad met Grassley once. Apparently he's a very grandfatherly man, and by that I mean he's very senile.

there are quite a few members who actually tweet themselves, it's believable that grassley would.

i know for certain that claire mccaskill (D-wa) does, and there are a handful of house members who arent having their press secs do it.

I've noticed that older people, regardless of how intelligent they are, tend to type like retards on the internet/e-mail if they are not particularly computer-savvy

6/8/2009 6:19:02 PM

My grandmother writes very well-worded emails to me. It doesn't take much more than the ability to use a keyboard to write good electronic messages.

He's not using twitterberry or any program either, he's sending them in via text. His staff SUCKS.

Did you see the article I posted? Why would he take the rap for his idiot intern? The office said it's HIM making the tweets.
