Yes, #My2K has been trending all day, and conservatives have had a lot of fun hijacking the White House’s latest attempt to portray an extension of President Bush’s tax cut as a $2,000 check showing up in the mail next year. Back in August, the administration had launched a similar hashtag, #2200dollars, and asked followers to share how President Obama’s middle-class tax cut would help their families.
@edshow Conservatives hijacked when Heritage Foundation bought the hash tag #My2K They want to control everything!!
