This morning at AIM, we started a new feature on the Twitter mini-blog service. The “tweeture” is called “Read Right,” and the goal is to point conservatives to the best news and commentary from the right.
We’ll highlight content from the kinds of publications mentioned in my blog post from earlier this week, “A Call For Conservative Media Cooperation.” Each tweet will include a story summary, a link and the publication’s name.
For those AIM readers unfamiliar with Twitter, a hashtag is a key word or phrase with a number sign at the beginning. If you enter the hashtag in Twitter’s search engine, you will find all posts that include the hashtag. So in this case, including the hashtag #readright will make it easy to find the best conservative content via Twitter. Other Twitter users can use the hashtag to promote conservative content, too.
If you don’t already follow AIM on Twitter, please do. But we also will be recapping AIM’s “Read Right” tweets here so visitors to our Web site can find all of the links in one place. With that said, here is the recap from today’s first edition of “Read Right”:

2 Comments for Read Right: AIM’s New Twitter Feature
Dear Observer,
You are disappointing me. I thought you had the courage of your convictions. But it seems not.
Brian R. Sullivan.
P.S. Surely this statement is short enough for you to read and understand, is it not?
Dear Observer,
I offer a simple challenge. Back up each of the statements you made in your #13 of 9 April in “An Honest Journalist” about what I have written previously (about the Great Society, British socialism, etc.. Actually quote what I wrote. I doubt you will, however, because your statements are either lies or you can’t read with comprehension.
Please consult a dictionary for the definition of “archaic.”
If you find what I write boring, then don’t read my postings. But your mention of so many strongly suggests you don’t find them boring but infuriating. If I’m correct, then I’m pleased.
Can you define what a conservative is? If so, please do so. Then we shall see if I am one or not.
You wrote that Mr. Limbaugh says that liberals… I don’t dispute that. However, there are hundreds of millions of liberals. To characterize a large group with a blanket accusation says much about Limbaugh but nothing about liberals. Should not people be judged as individuals, not as members of a group? To do what Limbaugh does is to prejudge. In other words it appears that both Limbaugh and you are prejudiced against a group of many millions. Do you hold such blanket atttitudes about other groups? If so, which?
Thus, you reveal mindlessness. To state that “the only purpose…” is to reveal that 1) you believe you can read minds; 2) you don’t have much notion of the complexity of the mind; 3) you are guilty of the offense of which you accuse me.
Finally, I doubt that your parents named you “Observer” or that you have only a single name. So, you use a pseudonym. Why are you hiding your identity? Are you afraid of the consequences if others know who you actually are? Are you a coward? Are you ashamed of your opinions? Why?
Most sincerely,
Brian R. Sullivan
P.S. Was this short enough for you?
