Fox News' Greg Gutfeld mocked President Obama's initiative to use Twitter to build support for his jobs bill and pressure Congress to pass it, saying the initiative was “bordering on internet harassment.”
ABC reported:
President Obama's re-election team is attempting to mobilize grassroots support for his jobs bill on Twitter, as he pitches the plan in Dallas today.
The new initiative, which the Obama campaign calls "Tweet for Jobs," features an interactive website that helps users send messages directly to Republican members of Congress by simply entering their zip code and picking from a list of pre-scripted tweets.
If an individual's district or state is not represented by a Republican, the program sends the message to House Speaker John Boehner by default.
Back in July, Fox cried “Twitter war” and “cyber harassment” after Obama's called for voters to “email or ”tweet" lawmakers and urge them to reach a budget compromise and avoid default.
