Throwing Cold Water on Obama‘s ’Twoosh Master’ Claims

No, it’s not a dirty word.
But “twoosh master” is how the commander in chief recently referred to his Twitter prowess after he managed to type a message using up the micro-blogging site’s entire 140 character allowance. (That’s apparently a “Twitter swoosh,” and no, we hadn’t heard the term before either.)
Watch below:
Now, here‘s President Obama’s supposedly masterful tweet:
As the Atlantic Wire points out, there are a couple of problems with the president’s micro-missive. For one, note the space between “wind” and the comma following it — that’s an extra, wholly unnecessary character. Knock it down to 139.
Not only that, Obama apparently added an extra space after the “-bo” tag, prompting Twitter’s character counter to read zero when there really was one character left. Knock it down to 138.
Finally, New York Magazine adds that “bio fuels” is actually one word. Knock it down to 137. (They also suggest the period at the beginning of the tweet takes up an extra space right from the start; it’s a tough call, but adding that period is a savvy way to ensure the message will show up in all of your followers’ timelines. We’re inclined to let it stand.)
Only 137 characters? Twoosh denied.

Posted on May 28, 2012 at 10:50amI don’t know what a “Twoosh” account is, and I could less.
I stay focused on important issues.
An Important issue regarding Obama is that the Executive office of the President is a PRIVATE CORPORATION.
http://www.manta.com/c/mm768fr/executive-office-of-the-president
For those of you who who can’t believe it, take note that it was established in 1939, Barack Obama is listed as the Company President and the Address listed as:
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Nw
Washington, DC 20500-0003
So it can not be some other entity.
That explains his Trademark “O” logo. It is a Corporate Logo.
Report Post »I also find it interesting that it lists that he has 115 employees.
That explains how he can get away with appointing “Czars”. They MUST be on his payroll.
I would love to see one of their paychecks.
Probably says: Executive Office of the president, LLC or EOP Inc.
How can an employee of a Private Corporation have any Authority or jurisdiction over soveign people ????
The answer is, that they can NOT !!!!!
We allow this because we are Ignorant to the truth and our instincts.

This clause among others has been grossly abused over the decades. This has to stop. The Tax system has to be reformed from top to bottom, simplified. Many avenues used by the Democrats over the years to grap power must be reviewed and closed off. Any reversals in reg/laws must be addressed quickly, fairly.
