Second Dumbest Email, This Time To Pegasus

|

Sarah Blaskovich wrote a story over on Pegasus News about how TxDot has set up a Twitter account to warn drivers of traffic and closures everywhere in Texas — except here. Seems they had a problem with technology.

So Pegasus founder Mike Orren did what he does. He set up Twitter accounts to connect to TxDot and provide what it couldn’t. And what happened? TxDot accuses him of forgery (for some reason in governmentese, that becomes Forgery: capitalized, the word seems more portentous, I guess) and impersonating a public servant. For doing what it couldn’t do!

Good luck with that one, TxDot. But the larger question is: what are they teaching at law schools? Did Associate General Counsel Juliet U. King also attend the University of Tulsa College of Law (hello there, C. Bruce Willis!). Does nobody go to class anymore? Are there any courses in constitutional law? Has somebody slipped stupidity into the water supply?

I’m looking at you, Deirdre Delisi.
