First outrage

Someone has started a fake twitter account slandering my mom: http://twitter.com/sindyrosenthal

Perhaps the posts intend to be parody, but the twitter definitely doesn't identify them as such. Perhaps more amazing, I am shocked that someone has the time to make up twits like this every hour or so.

Here's a screen shot of the latest:

Amazing! If anyone making these accusations actually bothered to consult her voting record, they might discover that she has voted against the university's interests many times... and that when she has supported the university it has been from a consensus position.

UPDATE - Feb 26: Wow, this twitter has gotten really nasty. I'm blown away that anyone could think this tactic was effective. Anyone who actually reads all of the posts won't believe any of them!
