Every month, I put out a list of my favorite tweets from my Johnhawkinsrwn account. Since I think of Twitter as a blog, with a 140 character limit on the size of posts, that seems to work out pretty well.

* American saying: Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight. New flotilla saying update: Don’t bring a steel pipe to a gunfight.

Obama Already Planning 2012 Election Campaign
28 Feb 2010 2:05 am Lori Ziganto

I know, hard to believe, right? And by hard to believe, I mean totally believable and obvious to anyone without their head up their own behind. If anyone is shocked by the fact that Obama is already focusing on his 2012 re-election campaign, they may as well give up now. The man has never stopped campaigning. It seems to be, quite literally, all he knows how to do.
President Barack Obama’s top advisers are quietly laying the groundwork for …
