Attorney General Eric Holder’s visit to Guantanamo was not, we repeat, was not chronicled on his own Twitter page.

He did not write: “Back from gitmo lol. They have a McDonalds and a BK and a KFC and surfing. Don’t know why anyone would want to leave.” And he did not write: “Some scary dudes in this Gitmo place. May have to ship ’em to China lol.”

But somebody purporting to be Holder wrote those words on a Twitter page embossed with official-looking crests for the Department of Justice, reports The BLT: The Blog of Legal Times.

The tip-off, according to The BLT, was a Tweet about Lindsay Lohan, written before the Gitmo observations.
