I follow Tom Leppert on Twitter. He’s running for Senate, in case you hadn’t heard. Maybe you don’t follow him. Maybe you don’t even have a Twitter account. I can help. Here are his last seven tweets:

UPDATE (8/17/11): Leppert’s campaign office called to say that they were worried that people might think these were really Leppert’s tweets. They asked for a disclaimer saying that these really are made-up tweets. So to be clear: I made these up.

Please?! RT now. Retweet. I’d really appreciate it. Are to the tee. Hitler = evil. RT if you agree. #texsen #tcot #WWII

“Bad luck” isn’t sinking our economy. Obama is. And the Democrats. Washington is bad. RT seven times if you agree. #txsen

I need you to do me a huge favor. RT if you love freedom, bald eagles, but hate wasteful spending. Huge. Quickly. #txsen

Appeals Court rules #Obamacare mandate is unconstitutional. RT if you support the ruling! http://t.co/UiUVBwY #txsen

How does Obama expect govt to run healthcare if it can’t run the post office? USPS lost $3.1 bill in Q3 http://t.co/dJfqDEu #txsen

  4. His tweets are about as awesome as my grandfather’s daily email forwards. (My grandfather’s daily email forwards are not awesome.)

  5. This is ridiculous, these aren’t his real tweets, how could you advertise them as such?

    Can’t you find real issues to talk about?

  6. Are we supposed to pick the real tweet from the fakes?

    I pick the six hour ago tweet as the real one. Leppert having flashbacks as Caraway’s wife.

  7. Attention whoring, jingoism, machismo, and ignorance. Tea Party credentials, Tom Leppert haz it.
