Ugh, I don't know why I feel compelled to post but...
As far as I can tell the only reason Lissa mentioned this was because of the number of times people feel compelled to harp on fear ward in this and other forums. lfd then made a post that I view as tongue-in-cheek making light of the inevitable jabs that horde and alliance take at each other. Then all of a sudden you're on a crusade telling pallies how they should play and spouting all other wisdom.
The reality is such that both shammies and pallies bring extra value to the table. Some of these values are more beneficial in different circumstances. In reality none of these abilities are probably necessary for any encounter that I have seen thus far in the game although they can certainly help. Somehow Horde get by without blessings and Alliance get by without totems. Of course the grass is always greener on the other side...
Unless you've gotten to 60 with every class affected by totems and/or blessings (aka every class) and raided it is hard to know all of the effects so let's not all profess to have tons of knowledge we don't have. I've always thought that the Lounge was better than that. Instead let's go back to what Tufty said and just note the accomplishment and be done with it.
