I'm not sure this is the best place to ask how to use tweepy*. I know
about django, not tweepy, so I can't tell you if you are using the
tweepy API correctly.

You're returning inside a loop. This means that the first time status
is true, you will exit the loop. I'm not sure that is intentional.

'for status in status' is probably going to work, but why be so
confusing? Also, what is this 'status' variable? You are passing no
variables named status to the template - in fact, you're not passing
anything.

(random bit of software), it doesn't mean you well get good support
for (random bit of software) on the django mailing lists.
