STILL SNIFFLING ABOUT SNOW…

@geoffliving Dear DC weather people: Rain is not a blizzard. Don’t over do it.

@PSDungeonMaster In DC they call it snowpocalypse. In Chicago we call it Tuesday.

GROUNDHOG DAY

@GroundhogPhil No shadow! My prediction: an early spring! Forget science. Ignore common sense. This groundhog would never lie
SNOW?

@CRAVEdc Punxsutawney Phil didn’t see his shadow and predicted an early spring… Who else is hoping he’s right??

@sparkleparties It’s Groundhog day…really??? Can’t possibly be accurate w/ so many lights, cameras not to mention the guy who pulls him out the hole lol!

@WrldOfElegnce You know, its amazing. We have all this technology and yet we still rely on a freaking GROUNDHOG to tell us when spring is coming.

EGYPT

@nealbrennan Look, Egyptians, we all find Anderson Cooper’s refusal to dye his hair annoying. But
beating him won’t help.

Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton.

@StateDept #SecClinton: “We condemn in the strongest terms attacks on reporters covering the ongoing situation in #Egypt.”http://go.usa.gov/YfX

@Calgary85 AlJazeera’s website article – “Has #Mubarak won?” (The scene in #Cairo looks like something out of Les Miserables.) Answer – Yes. #egypt

@NevineZaki words cannot express how proud i am of this country right now. Bless you #Egypt #Tahrir #Jan25

@StephenAtHome I don’t blame Mubarak for what’s happening in Egypt. I blame his evil vizier Jafar. Who appoints a parrot to a cabinet position?

@fakeusatoday In a desperate move to boost his popularity, Egypt’s president has changed his name to
Mubarak Muobama.

@ricky_zul Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable. (JFK) #Egypt

John Boehner.

@superstud99 on second thought i deleted my last tweet, dan snyder might come and sue me

TBD? Dan Snyder insists @WCP‘s Dave McKenna made fun of his wife. @TBDFactsMachine calls malarkey on him:

@caitlin_thomps? Surely there’s a Snyder-hating lawyer who’ll defend the WCP pro bono: RT @Slate Why Dan Snyder will lose his libel suit.

RT @mikemadden ESPN: Satan’s lawyer wants @wcp to take down image depicting Dan Snyder as devil.

@kevin_caldwell1? @wcp readership up 60% this wk. How many never read article til now? Is Dan #Snyder best thing to happen?

@Ciscovaras Snyder filed his absurd suit in NYC. I predict he wins if the judge is a Giants fan.

NATIONAL PRAYER BREAKFAST

@BorowitzReport At the National Prayer Breakfast, John Boehner will lead Americans in praying that they never need healthcare.

@foxheadlines OPINION: This Year’s National Prayer Breakfast — Truly Inspirational http://fxn.ws/gybyK3

@onfaith? Obama mentions @charitywater in his address at National Prayer Breakfast. Why?
