SGM-Mahaneygate: Tweets about Twats

Tweets about these twats in SGM.  I've never seen anything like it.  They're allegedly hosting 60-80 defrocked clerics plus maybe 100 more, at a reconciliation event, being run by Lutherans, while CJ is "center-stage" at their Conference, 10-12 Nov 2011. We're thankful for the tweeterizers, in this case, SGM Nation.
