How did @BarackObama get a special description for his Twitter page in Google results?
Take a quick look at the Google results for "twitter barack": http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&cl...
Barack's Twitter page description on Google is "Brief reports from the presidential candidate on what he's doing and thinking." How did this get there? It's not in the meta description tag on his page on twitter.com, and it's no where on the page (not in his bio).
Any ideas?

Inappropriate?Wacky. I don't know. Google doesn't hand edit the results and we don't allow customization of the meta tags. It's possible it was in his bio when the page was crawled.

Inappropriate?Very odd. All other twitter users seem to show this:
"Twitter is a free service that lets you keep in touch with people using the web, your phone, or IM. Join today to start receiving chris24's updates."
Wouldn't that mean that if it was Barack's bio at one point, that Google hasn't re-indexed it since that was added? If so, that's extremely odd.
