Twilf: Sarah Palin?
Twilf - Tweep I'd Like To Follow
Look the internet is full of dispute over the SuperNews! cartoon "Stupid Virus".
Conservative blogs are picking it up as an example of problems with the liberal media. Noel Sheppard from NewsBusters said:
I want to take a moment and reach out to the Conservative media. I'm not speaking on behalf of SuperNews! or Current TV. These are just the words of one fine young American.
I do not, nor have I ever believed that Sarah Palin is a "Twilf." I'm throwing this out there, because Sarah Palin is not a "Tweep I'd like to follow".
Sure, I'm interested in what she had for breakfast. I'd love to know that she's just hanging out with her family. I'd die to find out which malls she'll be at on her book tour.
But frankly there is no way for me to find any of this out.
Sarah Palin has a Twitter account, she has 21k+ followers, but she hasn't even posted one goshdarn tweet.
Sarah, I know that you haven't completely shunned Web 2.0. You have a vibrant Facebook account. You've got more than a million friends on there, AND you update!
I just read your post on the "Obama Administration's Atrocious Decision." Look it was good, but it was WAAAAAAAAAY too wordy. That post used 1,683 more characters than it needed. It would have been a much easier read if it were a tweet.
Sarah Palin, I want to follow you. Please Sarah Palin, will you become a twilf? If not for me, do it for all the starving underprivileged kids, who want to know what it truly means to be "Going Rogue."

"In the end, this was just a lot of conservative bashing in very bad taste, especially the shot of Palin's Twitter page and her astonishingly offensive screen name "Gun-Ho"
