President Barack Obama on Thursday went over the heads of the traditional press corps and took questions on Twitter for a half hour using his new account @POTUS.

The 140 character limit did not seem like a constraint to the notoriously long-winded president.

Cool.

So, he spends a 1/2 hour to answer twitter “questions” from plants and dummies. Hasn’t held a national security meeting, nor a full cabinet meeting in the past few years.

Good. That’s exactly what he should be doing. Anything else would be harmful to America.
