The governor of Hawaii wanted to inform the public that they would not die in a ballistic missile attack — but he forgot his Twitter password.

Gov. David Ige said on Sunday that he could not access his Twitter account on the morning of Jan. 13 — while Hawaiians were reeling after receiving the false emergency missile alert on their cell phones.

“I have to confess that I don’t know my Twitter account log-ons and the passwords,” Ige said, according to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser.

“So certainly that’s one of the changes that I’ve made. I’ve been putting that on my phone so that we can access the social media directly.”

I’m surprised this Einstein didn’t have all his passwords on a post-it note on his monitor

This is what happens when the cleaning staff takes the sticky note off your monitor.

He should have called one of his Feral “judges”. They could have made a decision that required somebody to give the guv his password.

My reaction is "WTF does Twitter have to do with it?"

Somewhere I came across a joke where a guy uses “incorrect” as his password because if he forgets all he has to do is type something in and he’s told.

Like the announcement in the World Trade Centers that everything was okay after the first plane struck. He will tweet based upon his vast knowledge.

This governor is dumber than the average ten year old kid in Hawaii.

Think about it.

He was preoccupied with the feces stains on his skivvies and trousers when he saw the first attack alert.

This is the intellect of the elected Hawaiian government. Don't forget that the nation relied upon their bureau of vital statistics to come up with the imposter's birth certificate too. If Pearl Harbor and Hickom were not located there, I recommend sending the place back to territory status.

Come on, let's have some security. You're supposed to tape it to the bottom of your keyboard.
