Have any of them flat-out broken ties with Moveon ?
Have any of them refused any further association with Moveon ?
and
Have you decided to never have any association with Moveon ?
Of course I'm referring to Moveon's NY Times ad . Petraeus or Betrayus . And I'm asking because although Moveon is not officially sanctioned as a Democratic Party organization , I think it's fair to say you won't find any Republicans within that organization . And the Democrats have already imbibed in the benefits they reap from Moveon . So I'm not blaming the Democrats for the ad , I'm just wondering if they've publicly distanced themselves from any further association ..
So -- Did Any Democrats Disavow the Actions of Moveon ?

Sadly, the democrat party has succumbed to pressures from this very dangerous organization. They have pretty much sold themselves out to a philosophy that embraces extreme left stands on most every facet of modern day living. The powers-that-be within Moveon.org lean toward socialism, but their true aim is to create a society that makes no value judgements, offers entitlement programs for non-citizens and generally, becomes a strain on the economic system of the U.S. Models of this belief system have failed in international circles. The likes of Kucinich, Kennedy, Shumer and Pelosi have become beholden to this left-wing philosophy and are a clear and present danger to us all. I would like to believe that traditional democratic supporters may distance themselves from this type of idealogy.

Hmmm Democrats believe in free speech.
MoveOn is an independent organization not associated with any political party but happens to favor the Democrats most of the time.
MoveOn should have free speech
So since the MoveOn.org has not violated but instead excercised their right to free speech and what they say is THEIR opinion the Democrats see no reason to comment one way or the other.

If they are smart they will distance themselves from MoveOn. It was a major foul to call The Top General a Liar well before the report was given. shame on them.

I don't know or care. He is a big boy and can defend himself. If you look you will not find the word "traitor" anywhere in the paid ad..
The RNC chairman Mike Duncan does not either apparently, he is using it as a fundraiser.
"Please help the RNC answer loathsome attacks from groups like MoveOn.org with a secure on line contribution of $1,000, $500, $100, $50 or $25."
This is typical Republican crybaby hypocrisy.
Did any Republicans return Swift boat money?
Do any Republicans sever ties with Rush, Sean FOX NEWS and others when they libel elected officials "TRAITOR", and anti-American..

I did read somewhere that moveon.org was trying to distance themselves from the democrats. They were embarrassed to be associated with them because they didn't accomplish anything that they set out to do. (impeaching Bush, ending the war)
Of course we all know that you can't impeach a President just because you don't like him. Maybe someone should send moveon that message.

If they did, I missed it as well. I also read somewhere the New York Times gave them a hefty discount to place that full page ad.
Now, to be fair, Democratic politicians have spoken out against that ad, but I believe that secretly, they all agree with what moveon.org said.

Many Democrats get their funding from MoveOns big boss, George Soros. He proclaimed recently of the Democratic party "We bought it, we own it". Democrats are his puppets (most of them).

There is no need to denounce an organization I never supported, little guy.
Your little feelings just aren't that important to anybody but you.
Some day when you're older, you may learn that.

I don't have enough influence on the country to waste my time disavowing anything.
No one cares what my opinion is, I'm just a lowly Mother.
