lol - She tweeted, following a class visit - they attempted to censor her. She disagreed with the Governor for massively cutting arts funding. She tweeted to her few friends, but now has over 3000 following her. "Just made mean comments at gov. brownback and told him he sucked, in person - he blows alot, was her tweet." His office monitored it and contacted the Youth for Government office. She wouldn't back down, and says now, 'I would do it again.'
Kansas governor apologizes to teen tweeter - TODAY Tech - TODAY.com
My staff over-reacted to this tweet, and for that I apologize. Freedom of speech is among our most treasured freedoms. I enjoyed speaking to the more than 100 students who participated in the Youth in Government Program at the Kansas Capitol. They are our future. I also want to thank the thousands of Kansas educators who remind us daily of our liberties, as well as the values of civility and decorum. Again, I apologize for our over-reaction."
