Since when has Twitter become a valid platform for national political discourse? Maybe valid isn’t quite the word, but it seems like Sarah Palin has once again attempted to commandeer the online medium to her advantage, and this time she had White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel in her cross hairs. At least on Twitter, Palin’s not obliged to type out entire words, it would appear. —KA
Political Hotsheet on CBS:
Sarah Palin didn’t appreciate Rahm Emanuel’s characterization of the Republican Party over the weekend and criticized the White House Chief of Staff on Twitter.
Palin tweeted, “RahmEmanuel=as shallow/narrowminded/political/irresponsible as they come, to falsely claim Barton’s BP comment is ‘GOP philosophy,” adding, “Rahm, u lie.”
