We are on the same page. I began using twitter during Iran Election fiasco. It was the only source of unfiltered info for a time.
Then came the Honduran mess. Washington DC and the State Dept. made some colossal mistakes there. But twitter contacts gave me a much richer perspective on what was happening.
And in the beginning I thought it was only for children’s prattle.
Are we following each other? Find me at conniebrimmer. I have no problem any more with using my real ID.
