A Kansas teen received more attention than she anticipated last week when she used 140 characters to criticize the state’s governor.

During a school event, Emma Sullivan tweeted about her less than desirable interaction with Gov. Sam Brownback.

Just made mean comments at gov. brownback and told him he sucked, in person #heblowsalot.”

Having gotten word of the tweet the governor’s staff contacted school administrators and demanded an apology from Sullivan. But this week, the teen tweeter was the one getting an apology…from the Gov. Brownback himself!

My staff overreacted to this tweet, and for that I apologize. Freedom of speech is among our most treasured freedoms.”
