White House 'rickrolls' Twitter critic - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/white-house-rickrolls-twitter-critic-214947062.html - broken link)


I like the comments after the article. Yes, the WH has gone loony. I guess Obama surrounds himself with a bunch of young jocks who think they are funny. I sure know they don't know much about running a country.

Oh well, it can't be any funnier than Obama in the hallway giving his speech. The way they position him looks like he has a chandelier on his head and a light coming out of each ear. Ever notice that? Maybe his staff is laughing at him as well.

    This is hardly news - the heart of rickrolling is a bait-n-switch. Th only "news" I see here is that The White House would do it so brazenly.

    Yep we are paying someone to tweet from the white house; even better we are borrowing 44 cents of every dollar to pay them. The West Wing is ready to "tweet" is a national embarrassment.

Obviously Obama is leading by example. Staff usually take cue from their leader.

Rick Astley Will Save Us All - NYTimes.com

The NYT puts a good spin on it. No surprise there. It should be called "The Obama Times."

I clicked on the link again and it doesn't come up with the Armageddon on finances it did the first time. The first click was funny though.

Which one? The first video that tells us about the financial armageddon or the second video which is the Richrolled one?

Financial armageddon isn't hilarious but being sent to the financial one when trying to Rrickroll is.

That's exactly who he surrounds himself with. Young, hyper-partisan, radical leftists who don't really know the first thing about running...anything.

They are all still wet behind the ears and haven't had much living experience. Hope our country can recover from the kids in the WH horsing around.

This what tax payers are paying for. Tweeting jokes.
