Mho, you got the "centrist hero" part wrong too. He a ruthless partisan. Also he's definitely a warrior where civility is not part in the arsenal, no spouter of the famous Rodney King maxim, Rahmbo Emmanuel maxim: no we can't all get along.

Edit to add: the twitter parody may not be that over the top. Real life examples from wikipedia:

Emanuel is said to have sent a dead fish in a box to a pollster who was late delivering polling results.[18] On the night after the 1996 election, "Emanuel was so angry at the president's enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting 'Dead! ... Dead! ... Dead!' and plunging the knife into the table after every name."[7][8] Before Tony Blair gave a pro-Clinton speech during the impeachment crisis, Emanuel reportedly screamed to Blair's face "Don't fuck this up!" while Clinton was present; Blair and Clinton both burst into laughter.

Actually, this is his real feed. He's just counting on everyone assuming it's a spoof. This explains why "Destor's rule" need not be followed.

Makes me wonder too. There

Makes me wonder too. There doesn't seem to be a single entity consistently applying policy consistently in America these days.

No, actually. They got me. I don't generally twitter ... and it was reported on HuffPo as if a legitimate feed. I'm blaming (90%) Destor. Based on his s explanation of satire on the Twitters, I thought an account such as this would be against the rules?

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck social networking.You fickle-ruled mistress!

But this DOES restore at least a bit of my faith in humanity ... so that's a good thing. I was truly shocked. Now I'm damn curious what his REAL feed looks like though.

That feed is a brilliant, totally spot-on joke. Which makes me wonder why Twitter suspended my BofAMoynihan account.
