Dana Perino: If Obama Has Time To Tweet, ‘We Should Re-Examine’ The President’s Responsibilities
Mediaite ^ | 6/20/11 | Matt Schneider

Posted on 06/20/2011 11:26:35 AM PDT by Nachum

The news that President Obama will soon start personally sending out real messages through Twitter likely has some of his supporters excited, but Fox News contributor Dana Perino was left wondering how he has time for such activities? She appeared on Fox & Friends and was less than enthused about the prospect of seeing tweets coming directly from Obama. Perino did admit that “inauthentic tweets are really annoying” and that she “unfollows” anyone on Twitter that has such boring, not real messages. Yet she wondered “maybe we should re-examine the roles and responsibilities of the President

Tweeting literally takes 5 seconds and can be done on that crapper. No problem with him doing this unless he’s doing it multiple times/day.

Well if he were a REAL POTUS he wouldn’t have time for golf, twitter, hoops and whatever people with time on their hands do until called to ACT like the real thing. He’s a puppet folks........he ain’t got a clue. He does what he’s told by the shadow gooberment that’s been created.

0bama will do his tweeting from his golf cart on the way to the next tee.

Exactly. It’s the quickest possible of his re-election efforts and probably only done by his handlers anyway.

Perino always seems a little off the mark.

This is all about driving obama votes to the polls.

You can bet that election week '12 O-bow-ma will be tweeting 10-12 times a day.

Agreed. Plenty of things to complain about. This isn't one of them.

You think the most powerful man in the world is going to spend just 5 seconds on a comment that will be read, analyzed, and reacted to by millions? Those tweets will have been the result of committee meetings, test audiences, security & accuracy checks, ghostwriters, etc. - I wouldn’t be surprised if they cost a million dollars a tweet and he wasn’t even aware of them.

The guy can’t even add an extemporaneous sentence to a well-versed-and-rehearsed prepared speech without screwing it up.

Yes, but think about it, with this, the extreme level of informality and lowering of the dignity, and respect between the Office of the President of The United States and the people is just breathtaking; also the relationship between the two is also now in the crapper!

Nonsense. With Obama EVERYTHING is worth complaining about.

How many CEOs do you know of that have time enough to play 73 rounds of golf in less than 30 months?????????

Bush got roasted by the press for playing 20 or so rounds of golf.

Which shows you how grossly out of balance our press corps is, just a pack of arrogant creeps, busily protecting their Favored One.....

The dignity of the office has nothing to do with this. Sarah Palin would likely do the same thing to try to stay close to the people and avoid the press.

Dignity and respect of the office should include keeping insulated from the people.

That’s my take.
