Kansas teen won't apologize to governor's office for Twitter post

(CNN) -- A high school senior, who faces a Monday morning deadline to apologize to Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback for a disparaging tweet, has said she will not write the apology letter.

"I don't think I should write the letter, and I don't think it would be the best move for me," Emma Sullivan, 18, said late Sunday night. "At this time, I do not think an apology would be a sincere thing for me to do."

Sullivan said her parents and many of her peers support her decision.

The teen made national headlines last week for a tweet she said was intended just for her friends.

2. She should demand an apology from the Governor

[get the red out]

3. Oh how disgusting

Now we have politicians cracking down on high schooler tweets. It looks like these guys would realize that they are elected to do a job, not worry about what some kid says about them. Absolutely childish on the Governor's part. Disgusting how far down elected officials in this country go.

Stand your ground, Emma. Why she should apologize to an ambulatory turd like Brownback for anything, much less an honest expression of her opinion, is beyond me.
