Voter Political Blog

Barack Obama’s Twitter account was hacked yesterday, which is very hard for me to believe. Not because I believe the internet is a safe, reliable place for social interaction that is free of malfunction, but Barack Obama on Twitter?

Twitter is a site whose purpose is to simply tell everyone “what you’re doing.”

I, myself, am addicted to my Twitter account, and constantly update my status with very important information such as: “My mom swears getting pooped on by birds is good luck. I think it’s just gross.” Or the very heady, “It’s 2am and I’m feeling bad for Britney Spears.” There aren’t many times I’ve read my list of friends’ Twitter updates and felt like a Ivy League scholar. (I’m not one.)

So what is someone like President Elect Barack Obama writing on his Twitter? I tried looking his at his account, but it’s been suspended since it was hacked. As a result, based on my personal experience with it, here’s my interpretation of what Barack Obama’s Twitter account may look like:

BarackObama: picked mah new headz of cia! holla! 42 minutes ago from web

BarackObama: just ate pint of ben and jerry’s while watching the hills. I feel gross! About 8 hours ago from twitterberry

BarackObama: brb, gg and fix economy. tax breaks! woot woot! about 18 hours ago from web

BarackObama: girlz first day of skool. hope they lurve it there! 1 day ago from web

BarackObama: LOL! u totes have to see this episode of facts of life! hilar! LOL! 1 day ago from twitterriffic

BarackObama: ew. richardson just withdrew! what up wth that? 2 days ago from web

BarackObama: sadz bout gaza. 9 days ago from web

Hopefully, he’ll get his Twitter account back up and running as soon as possible. And when he does, I’ll totes be reading his updates.
