Following the fiasco of first announcing a national referendum and two days later – succumbing to public pressure – withdrawing it, Greek prime minister George Papandreou followed up with a speech and more faux pas over twitter!
The Greek prime minister, tweeted the following to his followers and the world:
“The Greeks did not go bankrupt. Certain attitudes did. We’re facing a lot of work ahead but we will make it happen.”
Following up with:
“The more Greeks declare that Greece matters more than themselves, the brighter our future shall be.”
George Papandreou’s tweets were followed by a barrage of comments reeking of disapproval of his handling of the national matters:
“Greece matters more than you! There, I said it, what do I win?”
“Greeks, exactly so, because you’re a Yankee!”
“What are you talking about, tell us what type of drugs you’re smoking!”
“Hitler was elected too.. When gambling the entire nation’s fate you LOSE people’s approval ! RESIGN! “
