A number of lawmakers added a Valentine's Day theme to their usual tweets on politics and policy.

But in some cases, the Valentine's Day tweets lacked any real love at all.

Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Wis.), wished followers a happy Valentine’s Day, adding, “Let’s spread the love today and always.”

About 40 minutes later, she returned to a political tone, linking to an e-card from “America’s seniors” to House Republicans on Medicare reform making the rounds on Democratic Twitter feeds.

Meanwhile, Rep. Frank Guinta (R-N.H.), utilized rhyming to get his point across: “Rose [sic] are red, violets are blue; President Obama’s new #budget #debt, will be passed on to YOU!”

Oklahoma GOP Rep. John Sullivan, gave readers a link to a story about steadily rising gas prices, and wished them a happy Valentine’s Day, “courtesy of @barackobama's failure to produce a real energy plan,” he said.

Rep. Lois Capps (D-Calif.), noted that February is American Heart Month. Coupled with Valentine’s Day, she said, it should “remind us how important it is to keep our hearts healthy.”

And while Rep. Joe Baca (D-Calif.), tweeted about healthier eating habits as well, Illinois Republican Rep. Robert Dold embraced the sweet stuff, calling for sugar-subsidy reform to “help our local bakers and candy producers.”

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), tweeted about a "frosting party" at her house, displaying cupcakes she and her children made for friends at school.

“We had frosting party, ended up dancing around house!” she said early this morning on Twitter.

Responding to a constituent calling for a “veggie tray on sweets day,” the congresswoman said, “I'm with you on @letsmove, but we should #letkidsbekids once in awhile!”
