I guess it was implied

Gee, while the slogan "Meet Me in the Middle," which implies that the "Coffee Party" is some kind of centrist, moderate reaction to the crazy-eyed rightwing Tea Party is mentioned in this NYT article about the former, there's no mention of the fact that she's been in the tank for Obama since at least 2008 or that the founder has previously been a speaker at Netroots Nation (aka YearlyKos) in the past.

Oh, and this is a hoot:

But Ms. Park said that while the Coffee Party — and certainly the name — was formed in reaction to the Tea Party, the two agree on some things, like a desire for fiscal responsibility and a frustration with Congress.
“We’re not the opposite of the Tea Party,” Ms. Park, 41, said. “We’re a different model of civic participation, but in the end we may want some of the same things.”

You're a fucking liar, Ms. Park, and you fucking know it. You want the government to take over Americans' health care insurance, and the only thing preventing you from admitting it is the fact that the rest of us realize that it's a fucking boondoggle and a disaster.

And the NYT (and Jon Zak of the WaPo, as well) are fucking abettors of your lies, trying to make it seem that you're some kind of centrist who just wants the left and right to come together.

You lie.

(h/t)

Update: By the way, Annabel Park is never mentioned even once in the same sentence as Barack Obama in the NYT article, even though she was an Obama supporter at least as early as 2008. And, while the WaPo didn't bother to mention that, they at least mentioned that she worked for Virginia Dem Sen. Jim Webb. The NYT glossed over that, too.

2 It's even funnier, as we saw at the Puppy Blender's today,
Spoiler: the only private sector work listed is “Strategy Analyst: The New York Times”

Heh, and the Times tool and Zak didn't see fit to mention any of that but Zak's article "Implied" she was an Obamabot because..uhh...... it didn't say she wasn't!

3 This is so transparent. Bunch of fuckin' johnny-come-lately copycats. If you can't beat 'em, co-opt 'em.

It wasn't too long ago that the Tea Party movement was everything that was wrong in this country. Tea baggers, Racists, Terrorists. Now, all of a sudden, "They're just like us. We're not so different." First the Lizard Queen says it, now the stormtroopers are on it, with Minitru obediently pushing the script. Expect to see this everywhere soon.

This would be funny if it wasn't so fucking obvious. It's really kind of sad. These are supposed to be the smartest people in the room, and they can't see how stupid they look. They actually think this is going to work.

4 What's been funny to me is watching the unraveling of the Agit-Prop on the Astro-turfed You Tube sites. They keep marking comments outing their Axelrod - Organizing For America v2.0 origins as "spam", but can't keep up.

Someone also keeps congratulating them on their efficient handling of re-writes from Minitrue, and asking which Starbucks they're to report to for the two minutes of Hate. (marked as Spam).

And there's a Youtube commenter named, "MsEllieLight"(snort) who's concerned and thinks Obama should just start over and televise everything on C-SPAN like he promised -- "Change We Can Believe In". MsEllieLight seems to be having a lot of fun toying with the Coffee Party.

I think they've lost control of the message.

Red: "Clearly I am the most important. I am the warmth of life and of hope. I make the winters warmer. Blue said: I am the basis of life moncler jackets online sale and the symbol of the clouds from the deep sea. Yellow: You are all wrong! I bring laughter, into the world.
