@BarackObama, which is the Twitter account managed by Organizing for Action, tried to organize some hashtag mockery today and it didn’t go well, except for people who enjoyed making fun of OFA.

OFA was in a snit over the House passing a continuing resolution to fund the government through mid-December, but the resolution would not fund Obamacare. That caused OFA to throw a tantrum, and on top of that, to start a hashtag that descended into the surreal. The Republicans will do this #OrTheyShutDownTheGovernment:
What's next for @SpeakerBoehner and the House Shutdown Caucus? Stop oversalting the House cafeteria fries, #OrTheyShutDownTheGovernment.

Forget about the government, the Republicans should have focused on shutting down the OFA Twitter account.

Well, more people probably wear popped collars than believe that Obamacare is a boon to the economy.
