     Preserving The American Political Philosophy: My Twitter Exchange with Democratic Candidate for maine Senate Steve Woods


My twitter exchange with Democratic Candidate for Maine Senate, Mr Steve Woods over PR Newswire article in which MR Woods and Governor John Baldacci thank President Obama for the stimulus funds to build Tide Smart Global Business Plaza. A freedom of information request to David Heidrich, Jr. Assistant Director of Communications Department of Administrative and Financial Services Maine Government revealed no vendor by the name of Tide Smart Global - or any variation there of in the state records,- also none found on Recovery.org. Mr Woods first mocks my question and then acknowledges that it is based in truth.
