Rep. Peter Hoekstra Twitters A Security Breach

I'm a big fan of Twitter. Many state and federal lawmakers love it, too and I like to follow their day-to-day business.

However, there are some new rules to observe in this "New Media" world. Representative Peter Hoekstra is finding that out after "twittering" about his top secret trip to Iraq.

That's not only a security breach, but Representative Hoekstra also has to accept the fact that he's going to be the target of some extra-snarky media pieces by reporters who knew about the trip but kept it secret.
