I saw a little bit of this break earlier today, but I'm just now catching up. I guess the word got out that John Culberson and Tim Ryan are using Twitter, Qik, and other socnets to interact in near real time with their constituents. Now apparently, there is a growing uproar of objection to using Twitter, Qik, and other social media outlets by representatives in Congress

Aaron Brazell has a post and conversation on going on Friendfeed on this topic. We need Scoble and the rest of the crew to blast this out to make sure some attention is paid to this alarming development.

UPDATE: looks like this got micro-blogged a bit out of proportion. Just read this post and this conversation.

While we're at it, I REALLY REALLY don't think I can EVER EVER EVER vote for a PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES that does NOT know HOW TO USE A COMPUTER.
