At 9:42 this morning, I RT'd & replied to a tweet from @Zapem to @Genjunky. Here is that tweet:
Yes, I hit the "q" instead of "1." I made a typo, move on, nothing to see here.
At 9:48AM @Zapem told @Genjunky (s)he was logging off.
Just two minutes later, @GregWHoward replies to the tweet I sent to @Zapem.
Now this may not seem like a big deal, BUT, @GregWHoward has me blocked. He can't see my tweets. The easiest explanation is that he had both accounts open in Tweetdeck and didn't pay attention which one he used to Tweet.
Now, they will claim it was a "set up" and they did it on purpose to make us look foolish. But, according to blogger Sarah Beth Jones, "those who protest the loudest are the ones trying to provide cover for themselves."

A Rant in Support of Same Sex Marriage by @medicinalwutang
A Rant in Support of Same Sex Marriage
Twitter user @medicinalwutang
On October 1st, 2011, I took the biggest step of my adult life- but it was not without trepidation. As I knelt down before the man I’ve been with for 3 years to ask his hand in marriage, I knew that somehow, some way, I would have to work hard to support us as a family. Millions of things rushed through my head, and it seemed like a lifetime before he said ‘yes’. I thought of buying a house in a suburb somewhere. I thought of furnishing our home the way we wanted to. I thought of being able to take care of everything we owned and still live comfortably. But most of all, I thought of our wedding.
Riley and I are both native Michiganders, born and raised. We’ve spent our entire lives here, and we have no plans of leaving any time soon. So why on earth should we have to get married in another state? Why should we inconvenience ourselves and family? Why can’t we do it in the state that we call home? Currently, Michigan bans all types of same sex partnerships, which, to be quite honest, bothers me to an unforgivable degree.
There are no arguments against same sex marriage that can stand up to the scrutiny of one who can think logically. A man marrying another man will not ruin your “straight way of life”. We are not out to take over anything. We simply want what every single other American citizen wants- to be happy. We want to be able to live our lives freely and without fear, to be allowed to build lives for ourselves. For some, a civil union may be enough. But I don’t want to call the man I fell in love with my partner, I want to call him my husband. I didn’t spend 3 years of my life with him to settle for the “next best thing”.
We, as Americans, need to think logically about this situation. Those who believe in same sex marriage need to stand up, whether they be straight, bisexual, gay, lesbian, transgendered, or just curious. Nobody has any right to say that two adults who are in love should not be allowed to marry. If they want to get married, what does it matter to you? How does it affect you? How could it possibly hurt you? If you think that two members of the same sex being married will somehow ruin this country, you need to check your priorities, because they’re quite obviously skewed.

Meet Larry Gunsallus: Tea Party Member & Child Molester.
I was reading the Twitter timeline of @GregWHoward because Gerg, as we call him, is an endless source of non-intentional laughter. Gerg is like a cartoon character of everything that is wrong with American conservatives.
I came across this tweet from @gukala:
I thought I had come across someone who was wrongly imprisoned on death row and had his conviction overturned due to DNA evidence. So I did a little research and boy was I wrong. It turns out @gukala aka Larry Gunsallus of Harrison, Arkansas is a convicted child molester.
http://www.isp.state.il.us/sor/offenderdetails.cfm?SORID=E00A6645
Needless to say, I was shocked. Notice the words "NON-COMPLIANT" in bright red letters under Gunsallus' picture. I did a search for "Larry Gunsallus Non-Compliant" and I found this:
http://harrisondaily.com/news/article_717b1358-d668-11df-a42a-001cc4c03286.html
It seems Gunsallus moved from IL to AR and didn't bother to register as a sex offender. He was arrested & charged with a felony. He was automatically classified as a level 3 sex offender, the next to highest classification of a sex offender in AR.
The article above states, "Gunsallus was also notified he couldn’t live in the residence on Newman due to its proximity to schools, day care centers and even the Youth Center. He was given a map of the city showing areas where he could live."
This man, convicted of having sex with a 13 year old when he was 39, was living near schools, daycare centers, and a youth center with NO supervision. It makes me shudder.
Here is a link to the Arkansas Sex Offender list:
http://www.acic.org/offender-search/index.php
Here is a screenshot of Gunsallus' entry:
Here's an interesting screenshot showing Gunsallus was originally charged with IL Statute 720 5/12-13(a)(3)defined as the "sexual penetration with a victim who was under 18 years of age when the act was committed and the accused was a family member." You read that correctly - a FAMILY MEMBER - INCEST!
Gunsallus was found not guilty on that charge because the victim was his step-daughter. But he was convicted of violating IL statute 720 5/12-16(d)defined as the "act of sexual penetration or sexual conduct with a victim who was at least 13 years of age but under 17 years of age and the accused was at least 5 years older than the victim."
When asked about his arrest for failure to comply, Gunsallus replied "they call it non-compliance when you insist you didn't commit the crime!" No, they call it non-compliance when you don't register as a sex offender as required by law. Saying you're not guilty is not a felony.
There is a lot more I could share with you about this "man," but you can check out his Twitter account, @gukala, and make your own decision.
I'll just leave you with this:
"I am already Tea Party."
Finally this:
I guess stealing a car doesn't seem so bad compared to screwing your 13 year old step-daughter.

Do You Trust @Swiftread? You shouldn't. Here's why?
This is an email I received in which Patrick Read, aka @Swiftread, stabs his "good friend" @GregWHoward in the back. Swiffer refers to Greg as egotistical, easily frustrated, and says he "gets bent" easily. Swiffer ponders if he should "post some pretty vile stuff targeting greg." The best part is PS saying he told Greg many times to apologize to Andrew Breitbart.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

A Moral Fable About The Koch Brothers.
This was originally tweeted by @WTNWR. I liked it and wanted to share it here.
A Koch brother, a tea party member, and a union rep get a plate with 12 cookies. Koch immediately takes 11 of the cookies for himself, then turns to the tea party member and says "watch out for that union guy - he wants your cookie.
