It happened to Barbara Mikulski. It happened to Valerie Jarrett. It was only a matter of time before the butt-tweeting bug bit Dan Pfeiffer. He must have quickly realized his mistake, but not before it caught the attention of other Twitterers, who thought the message may have held a hidden meaning:

Perhaps Pfeiffer was hoping to get beamed up:

Or he was showing love to the Twitterverse:
I want to quit you too, Pfeiffer. But I can't. It's my job. RT @pfeiffer44: Qwwtu

Or, he was just doing his job:
