Sources: Jackson Day Postponed
By Kleinheider Posted on April 24, 2009 at 9:03 amPost Politics has learned that Jackson Day, the Tennessee Democratic Party’s annual fundraiser scheduled for May 30 at the Factory in Franklin featuring keynote speaker Harold Ford, Jr. has been canceled. A new date has not been set but should be announced soon.
The as-yet-unscheduled event, however, will be co-chaired by Governor Phil Bredesen and Democratic Leadership Council Chairman Harold Ford, Jr. and will feature “several other prominent Democrats.”
Tickets already purchased for the scheduled May 30 Jackson Day celebration will be honored on the new date or be refunded. More as it becomes available…

I heard the rescheduled event will be not even be in 2009. They’re skipping a year.
Not cancelled, Adam. Rescheduled. The new event is going to include people who weren’t included before. My sources are apparently better informed than yours.
ben, when will we get more information?
I heard that they’re starting a 3rd party.
I heard that Gov. Bredesen got Bristol Palin pregnant.
Thanks, AC. You’re the best. Keep up the good work.
I heard that union members are planning an overthrow of the government. Get lots of guns and ammunition. On sale now at your local Bass Pro Shop.
Not cancelled, Adam. Rescheduled. The new event is going to include people who weren’t included before. My sources are apparently better informed than yours.
Congratulations on that.
The as-yet-unscheduled event
Ben, how do your sources explain that an event has been “rescheduled” when there is no scheduled date for it? In my book, “rescheduled” means you moved the event to a set date.
What do I know? I’m only a figurehead…
I HATE!!!! I HATE!!!! HATE!!!!!!!
I heard that Miss California is planning a rally with the TN GOP.
Good point. Postponed, then…
Cancel, v.
1. to make void; revoke; annul: to cancel a reservation.
2. to decide or announce that a planned event will not take place; call off: to cancel a meeting.
3. to mark or perforate (a postage stamp, admission ticket, etc.) so as to render invalid for reuse.
4. to neutralize; counterbalance; compensate for: His sincere apology canceled his sarcastic remark.
5. Accounting. a. to close (an account) by crediting or paying all outstanding charges: He plans to cancel his account at the department store.
b. to eliminate or offset (a debit, credit, etc.) with an entry for an equal amount on the opposite side of a ledger, as when a payment is received on a debt.
6. Mathematics. to eliminate by striking out a factor common to both the denominator and numerator of a fraction, equivalent terms on opposite sides of an equation, etc.
7. to cross out (words, letters, etc.) by drawing a line over the item.
8. Printing. to omit.
Good point. Postponed, then…
You did see the word postponed in the headline there right, Chief?
Obama is a terrorist socialist baby-killing tax and spend liberal fascist secular Messiah atheist Muslim! But I’m not racist.
I heard that Will Pinkston waterboarded Chip Forrester.
Actually, Chip waterboarded himself.
Apparently, the Chipinista trolls think there is some value in throwing around nonsensical comments. Whatever, children.
I’ll repeat what I’ve said previously, the current arrangement is as good as it gets with Chip Forrester as TNDP chair. I’ll do all I can to make it work.
If you Chipinista want to be involved in Democratic politics, there’s a place for you. Prove your worth.
So far, you haven’t shown much.
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but the press release from TNDP is the first thing I’ve seen from them that doesn’t sound half retarded. Postponing so you can have a better event?That actually makes sense. And assuming that they didn’t just fabricate Bredesen and Ford’s quotes, then it sounds like they actually are on track to having support of the senior Democratic leadership. Apparently, Chip has spent some time shopping at the Common Sense Store. For once.
I waterboard myself every morning in the bathtub. But it isn’t nearly as scary.
I saw where Mike Turner posted on Aunt B’s blog last night. He was feeding those poor people one lie after another over there about whats going on. He reminded me of that spokesman for Saddam in ‘03 who kept saying everything was fine while you could see half the city going up in flames behind him.
What a train wreck. When is this dolt going to resign? It’s spring and the hackeysack tourneys are gearing up. The reformed Dead are about to go on tour. Put some flowers in your hair, Chip, and return to “the people.”
Pinkston SHOULD waterboard the Chipper in the name of professional Democratic operatives everywhere. Tennessee Democrats should be furious with the executive committee for the travesty they wrought.
Let’s see, we had a two-term incumbent governor and a clutch of senior Congressmen - all Democrats - that have never lost an election. Then we had Chip and the bloggers. Who did the executive committee listen to? What a bunch of rocket scientists.
Is Mike Turner’s MiniMe, Addison Pate, crying his little eyes out somewhere?
Fuck this. Now I’ll never give a dime to the Tennessee Democratic Party since I know its going to be spent just as stupidly as it was before by people who don’t know how to win elections.
I hope people go to the rescheduled event and boo all these Blue Dog egomaniacs and their sycophant boosters the hell off the stage.
Then we would be making progress.
Maybe they will make on the 15th day of the month. Lots of people keep trying to repeat the number “15″ to me (not because i wish to attend a ‘quince-aneros’party, and I will) but because they have been prompted by the actual politicians whom actually ’sleep with’ a specific girl and her mom, in L’burg Tn. They just tried to make me the ‘cover story’ and they are ’stickin to it’. I actually just dated the mother 1 time (not even knowing she is married to an ole school chum); never the daughter that the police convention enjoys so much. Sorry about mentioning it but maybe the Buzz is the only way to stop it/ them. I’m not there.
There’s just not much left to say. The Chipinista have lost their minds.
Dan, I went over and read that post on the Cat Pants blog, and I have to say that Sharon Cobb made a good point there, though I didn’t necessarily agree with the original attempted outing; and, gee, I don’t know why I think this — yeah, I do — but maybe the blogger in question back then is still commenting these days….
I liked An Inconvenient Truth so much I saw it three times at the theater. Honest!
