Please help me out here.

I've been off DU for about 8-10 hrs. I have returned for a few minutes and now I'm seeing the most bizarre postings here.

Three issues seem to be a hot topic, but I'm reading threads where arguments between posters are continuing from thread to thread, specifically about these topics, making it very difficult to ascertain the basis for the threads.

Sen Clinton and "tea".

Sen Obama and a "hut".

And, Sen Clinton somehow tied to Bhutto's assination. :wtf:

The posts in GDP tonight are all twisted together and difficult to untangle.

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. TIA. MKJ

1. Obama supporters are wigging out. nt

2. dont bother, just go surf some topic forums

There will be fresh BS in the morning that you might catch from the start.

:hi:

10. You know, this is the first time that I've posted a request like this.

I was hesitant to do so, because I'd figure some would be dismissive of my asking, however, I'd still like to know.

I've been doing the best I can to follow the coverage of the primaries and the discussions here, but apparently something was said by one or two or more candidates which acted as a catalyst for the number of non informative threads here tonight.

3. You're not missing anything...sort of like the Young and the Restless...

a made up story that entertains with sex, lies, and rumors.

5. you're good, you've summed it up pretty well.

6. i haven't seen the hut thing except for people referencing it

i take it those people are on my iggy list? :shrug:

7. I think the major players supporters are doing the dirty work

for their favorite candidates. You don't really need to read any of them. Perhaps a stroll through LBN or the lounge would help. Just ignore the silliness... nothing to see here. :7

9. There are plenty of disruptors as well

Some of the worst of these threads are actually started by supporters of other candidats, even Kucinich and Richardson. One of the worst is a Richardson supporter, or so he says.

8. Hillary has been charged with the murder of Bhutto

her alibi is that she was having tea with Barak's grandmother at the time.

Capiche?

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

11. Yes, most certainly,.

Quite helpful. MKJ

[sandnsea]

12. Just a bunch of distortions, as per usual

Axelrod said we had dropped the ball on Pakistan because of the Iraq war - and somehow Hillary's people construed that into Hillary caused Bhutto's death. :crazy:

Obama said experience is more than having tea in ambassador's houses, and now that's sexist. :crazy:

I missed the hut "controversy". :crazy: I'm sure.

15. Thanks sns.

I greatly appreciate your cogent summary.

Thanks again. Strange days indeed. :toast: MKJ

13. Is this the "weird" group on DU? I have been a member for a couple years but only recently

started reading post here. The tone is definitley differnt than GD.

14. Hell..I've been here the whole time and I'm lost.

16. The result of Friday night after Christmas?

Maybe a little too much imbibing of happy juice perhaps?

[Forkboy]

17. Too much stupid juice.

:)

[rucky]

18. Just sit back and enjoy the show. n/t

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

19. Good advice.

Although, the show here currently seems like open mike night at The Free Form Opera Coffeehouse and Ribs Sports Bar.

:crazy: MKJ

20. You didn't know Absinthe was legal now? All Obama supporters have

been awarded one free bottle. They deserved it.
