Man do I have some questions on this topic . I feel it's high-time for some honest answers too .
My question should appear facetious to you because we all know that Moveon supports the Democratic Party . Of course they wouldn't run that ad . We all know that . And the fact that NONE of the Democratic Presidential Candidates have publicly condemned that ad.. . from an organization which is tied at the hip with the Democratic Party , is truly beyond anything that I would've expected . This inaction by people who are asking to be voted as our LEADER , is atrocious .
I look at it this way . My vote is one vote . If the majority of the country disagrees with my choice , well then we'll have a Democratic President , and I'll have to live with that . But for goodness sakes people , we can't have a leader who's afraid to publicly condemn a website and it's participants and owners . We just can't . And we're the ones to decide , now aren't we.
Please answer the titled question honestly.

Nope. And its funny how libs like Delphi say 'Get over it.', isn't it?
Typical liberals, always excusing atrocious behavior.

Moveon.org does not support the Democratic Party. In fact Moveon.org has been highly critical of the Democratic Party lately. Moveon.org wants the Democratic Party to stop funding the war, bring the troops home now, and impeach the President. Were you outraged when Moveon.org took out an ad in Pelosi's district?
If there was a Democratic President we would not be in Iraq, there would not be a Surge, a General Paetreus, or a poorly directed war. So your question is purely hypothetical.
The majority of this country does disagree with you and in less than two years, we will have a Democratic President and a bigger Democratic majority in both houses.

I hope you were as revolted when the republican ads were against Kerry
I didn't hear George W Bush say one word against the swift boaters who were proven to be liars.
George Q Bush of all people, a guy who went AWOL
(notice they could dreg up a few liars on Kerry but couldn't come up with ONE SINGLE PERSON that would say they seen W during the time it has been reported that he was AWOL----NOT ONE)
Were you on here defending Wesley Clark a few years back?
For the record, I don't read anything put out by moveon, nor do I approve of what they apparently said about Patraus.
ALSO for the Record Ollie North was a traitor, that helped Reagan sell arms to IRAN
republicans gave him a pass but whine about Clinton pardoning Marc Rich who merely traded oil futures NOT WEAPONS !!! (also note that Marc rich paid a million dollar fine and was exiled for nearly 20 yrs)

anything that adds fuel to the anti-war "movement"... the democratic candidates are not going to condemn such behavior. i cannot believe anyone would say that move-on isn't a liberal organization. so there's no snow-ball's chance in hell it would be run against a dem candidate.... that would be like Rush running an ad bashing someone in the GOP. doesn't make sense... but, bottom line is... the left is scared. they know they were wrong. they know the war is going better than expected. they know they will not have power in '08 or ever again for that matter... they are resorting to running ads calling people names and making unjust accusations and believing everything a terrorist website says but not the commander of our armed forces in Iraq... ahhhh, the life of a liberal..
as far as the Kerry ads.. those were mud-slinging ads paid by the candidates...happens every election on every level of government... move-on isn't being paid by a lib candidate to run those ads... or are they???

Earnest-
Despite the MoveOn ads, Bush was re-elected. So they don't have very much power. The Democrats believe anyway and the Republicans don't listen. Nothing MoveOn does is as bad as the "Swift Boat" ads run by Rove's friends.
Stop worrying about the ads and look into the truth.

Moveon would not exist if there was a democrat president. The overthrow of Bush is their only reason for being.

If the general had come out and admitted his hands are tied and our approach to this war is ineffective and that the Bush Administration is dragging it out ,then I could support the man .
If he would only tell the truth .
As they say the truth is a beautiful thing .

What is despicable about the ad? The term "General Betray US" or Moveon trying to get the facts straight?

Of course not. Moveon is a mouth piece of the lunatic left.

Actually, Moveon.org was founded during the Clinton administration, take a look at their website. moveon.org I was on it this morning. It is a PAC designed to try to cut through the partisan BS and try to get something accomplished by the government. So leave the partisan stuff out of it.
They certainly have gotten everyone's attention this time, haven't they??
Jasonsluck-have you looked at the website and seen when and why they were founded? Until you do, make no pronouncements about them...

Probably not... but if there was a Democratic president we can be sure that the Swift Boat people would run one.
So something like this would happen no matter who is in charge.
