p>Good morning, everyone!
This edition of Obsession is being written at 4:30AM CST with very little planning of structure – a First Draft, if you will.
And even if you won’t.
Why? Because I was a lazy procrastinating jerk, that’s why. Ok – we’re just going to grab random saved threads and throw them against the walls of the iso chamber and see what sticks.
First up –“Tea Party a go-gone!”

National Tea Party FederationDate: Sat, 17 Jul 2010 at 3:43pm
Last
night, the members of the National Tea Party Federation participating
in an “All Hands” conference call unanimously decided the following:The
membership of the National Tea Party Federation has this evening
suspended and will immediately expel Tea Party Express from any further
association with the Federation should they fail to publicly rebuke Mark
Williams and remove him from their ranks by 3 pm eastern time Saturday
July 17.The rebuke must take the following form:
1. Mark
Williams must be officially removed from the ranks of the Tea Party
Express.2. Notice of Mark Williams’ removal must be placed
prominently on the official Tea Party Express website.3. Tea
Party Express must issue a press release articulating points 1 and 2
above.* * *
Last night, a member of the National Tea
Party Federation communicated our decision directly to a member of the
leadership team of Tea Party Express. That leader’s response was clear:
they have no intention of taking the action we required for their group
to continue as a member of the National Tea Party Federation.Therefore,
effective immediately the National Tea Party Federation is expelling
Tea Party Express from the ranks of our membership.Contact:

Actually, you could have stopped after “I have no idea”.
To: Sasquatch the Original
I have no idea about this either. IMHO the Tea Party is a close
knit group of independent voters with like goals. There is no main
organization per say(sic).2

So – you’re saying that you supportthe Tea Party “movement”, but have absolutely no idea what it consists of, or who’s running it and funding it. Got it.
To: Sasquatch the Original
Not as bad as this, of course:
But, of course, stillnot racist.
To: Sasquatch the OriginalI don’t like it from the little I know about the incident. It looks
like a successful tactic to divide Tea Party People,
So this was the tactic of the Tea Party people? I swear to Bog, if one of these crazies shot the other one in a public place for the contents of his wallet, these idiots would claim that the Dems planted the cash to tempt him.
or at least make it
look like the people who attend Tea Parties and the Tea Party express
stops are not united in a common goal.I’ve been to both types of
events and both have mostly the same people there.

To: Sasquatch the Original
Most defnitely someone else will express what i’m going to try
to—
the tea party will now be divided along the lines of “divide and
conquer”
Um – “Divide and conquer” as a strategy is done by an external source.
These nincompoops are doing this to themselves.
and by demanding Williams leaves, they acknowledge as truth that the tea
party has racists—
as i’m not at all familiar—googled Mark Williams racist…and got
the impression that he replied to the n doubleA cp’s charges of racism
the same way others have,including Breitbart,who states he has video as
well proving this naacp is the racist bunch.16

Maybe he’ll post video of himself getting raped in a prison cell? I hear the “Girls Gone Wild” guy was released lately – maybe he could distribute.

Palin and Levi Johnston Reveal Secret Engagement

9:56:22 AM bySteelfishBristol Palin and Levi Johnston Reveal Secret Engagement
Couple
kept on-again relationship secret from Sarah PalinBristol Palin
was worried about how she was going to tell her mother that she’s
engaged to marry Levi Johnston, the father of her 18-month-old son. She
solved the problem by telling a tabloid magazine. “We got engaged two
weeks ago. It felt right, even though we don’t have the approval of our
parents,” Palin told Us Weekly magazine in a bombshell story published
Wednesday.The magazine cover features a photo of a smiling
Bristol and Levi with their son, Tripp. Inside, Bristol admits that she
and Johnston had not told her parents, Sarah and Todd Palin, about the
engagement. “It is intimidating and scary just to think about what her
reaction is going to be. Hopefully she will jump on board,” Bristol told
the magazine. “I want her to know Levi has grown up and that he is
going to be there as a dad.” ‘Redemption and forgiveness’ In a statement
to NBC News, the Palins said, “Bristol at 19 is now a young adult. We
obviously want what’s best for our children. Bristol believes in
redemption and forgiveness to a degree most of us struggle to put in
practice in our daily lives.” No wedding date has been set, but Caroline
Schaefer, Us Weekly’s executive editor, told TODAY’s Matt Lauer
Wednesday morning that the reunited young couple would like to do it
quickly — possibly in the next month. Until marriage, Schaefer said, the
couple are living separately and practicing abstinence. Bristol Palin,
who has moved out of her parents’ house, is a spokeswoman for an
abstinence-only program.

You know, when it comes to Freepers, never attribute to typography what can be achieved by pure stupidity.
To: Steelfish
Hence his apology to Palin…good frakin grief.

I’m all for reconciliation, but this is creepy.
I don’t see a good outcome for Bristol or Sarah in this. This guy is a
grotesque man with no manners or civility.
Sounds like a pretty good fit to me.
He’s likely only doing this to get more information on Sarah for his
liberal press buddies. They are now seeing Sarah as a serious
presidential contender.
It may cause Sarah some pause on her aspirations. Bristol is a
freaking idiot.8

This makes them look like trailer park trash(for those of you who
dwell in trailer parks, I apologize. But you know what I mean).If Governor Palin had any ambition for higher office, this
announcement should soften her chances nicely.It creeps me out.

well, I really don’t see what she’s getting, except publicity.I wonder how long it will be before she turns against her mom and
becomes an instant celebrity (media whore).











RE: Bristol et al.
I seem to remember somewhere that the tabloids would pay folks for their stories (as opposed to hard journalism not paying).
Is that correct? And if so, could that explain why someone who is afraid to tell their mom would keep things quiet by announcing them in a tabloid???
Kibitzer – I think “pause on her aspirations” means the was eating a cheeseburger when the heard the news, and inhaled a piece of it. She then paused on her respirations until someone pounded on her back. She then refudiated the chunk of cheeseburger.

Well, that’s a doozie of an explanation. Anyone who bet against me owes me ten bucks.
I couldn’t find a good link, but here’s a rough recollection from Cheers.

I’d have given a month’s pay to have been in the room when Palin was told about the re-engagement.
