Bam! Once again, Iowahawk starts it off with a zinger! John Stossel provided a Teachable Moment ™ about smarter government in one tweet, but it didn’t end there.
Overheard in DC: "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!" RT @iowahawkblog: #SmarterGov, because a #DumberGov is scientifically impossible.

That’s right. The challenge was accepted and the White House upped Obama’s “smarter government vision” idiocy by trying to start the #SmarterGov hashtag.
President Obama: "Taxpayers deserve the biggest bang for their buck, especially at a time when budgets are tight." #SmarterGov

Bless its heart!
FACT: Americans need the kind of #SmarterGov portrayed by Newman on Seinfeld. #WHtwitterroomaudition @iowahawkblog

Heh. Citizens roundly mocked President Obama and the White House Twitter account.
Thanks, but you've banged us plenty already. MT @whitehouse President Obama: "Taxpayers deserve the biggest bang for their buck"

Iowahawk also noted a painful truth about the mock-worthy feed. However, there is more snarking to be had!
.@BarackObama and his stalwart team of experts have already tackled the toughest part of making government smarter: the hashtag! #SmarterGov

Indeed. Even more hilarious is the fact that the hashtag was hijacked. Yet another White House hashtag attempt fail. Will Team Obama never learn?
Read and giggle madly:
Just don't ask which parts MT @whitehouse: Obama: "We’ve made huge swaths of your gov…more transparent…than ever before." #SmarterGov

#SmarterGov is White House-speak for #HolyCrapHaveYouSeenOurLatestPollNumbers

Clearly, the Department of Oxymorons is dangerously underfunded. #SmarterGov
