It is much more liberal than most Americans understand. Its leader, George Soros, envisons a one world government. Soros in not an American and has been banned from the UK. With this in mind, do you think it is dangerous that MoveOn has so much influence over the Democratic party; that a foreigner can influence Hillary and Biden, as well as our 2008 election. I heard on a cable news channel that Soros said of the Democratic party "We bought it, we own it. We will do what we wish with it".

Never said 'Founder'. Said 'Leader'. He has the cash.

MoveOn was created during Clinton impeachment. It is a Democratic website. Soros now favors the site. He has a lot of money and influence. He contributes to Democratic candidates and has others contribute. He does not work in our best interest, lib or con.

Move on . Org is more than that. It's a leftist socialist group dedicated to the slow overthrow of the US through erosion of our values.
As bad as Karl Marx.

It is very liberal, to the point of also soaking up all the latest conspiricies. Or starting them. It's a situation where a minority number of people are trying to dictate what the majority will think and say. They do have power, due to their finances. I don't know for sure, but one would get the impression that Hillary checks the Move On web site regularly. She reflects the same opinions and attitudes. Anyway, I think they will discredit themselves in time with their outragous claims and attitudes. People will see the organization for what it really is. Like when Al Gore did when he invented the internet.

Moveon has no influence over the Democratic party, that's just the GOP trying to spin a new angle to make up for it's falling popularity. To claim that they control the Dems because the candidates won't apologize for them is absurd, I don't see the GOP apologizing for the swift boaters, or Ann Coulter, or Rush Limbaugh, or Sean Hannity, or any of the other right wing corporate shills.
And Rupert Murdoch (also not American) has far more influence over neocons than Soros does over Democrats.

Why do you people not tell the truth! You should read about George Soros before mocking him!
I think you give Move On too much credit. One who claimed to be credible, and later found to be liars, were the Swift Boat Veterans for the truth" who went after Kerry. They were nothing more than a Republican hit group.
Move-on has no ties to the Democratic party!
And by the way, George Soro's was NOT THE FOUNDER of Move On!
Wes Boyd is co-founder and President of MoveOn.org, and also a Board member and full-time volunteer for the organization, to which he brings his considerable expertise in both technical design and implementation and consumer marketing. Prior to founding MoveOn.org, Wes and his wife Joan Blades co-founded Berkeley Systems, a leading entertainment software company, best known for Flying Toaster screen savers, and You Don't Know Jack, an online game show. Mr. Boyd served as Berkeley Systems' Chief Executive Officer, growing the company to 150 employees and $30 million in sales. Prior to his work in consumer software, Mr. Boyd authored software for blind and visually impaired users allowing full access to computers with a graphical user interface. In the 1970s and early 1980s, Mr. Boyd served at the University of California as a senior staff programmer on research projects.
Joan Blades is co-founder of MoveOn.org, a Board member and volunteer for the organization, to which she brings her expertise in consumer marketing and mediation. Joan is a software industry veteran, having co-founded Berkeley Systems. Ms. Blades served on the Berkeley Systems board and as the Vice President of Marketing. Prior to her work in consumer software, Ms. Blades taught mediation at Golden Gate Law School, and practiced mediation. She wrote Mediate Your Divorce, published by Prentice Hall, and co-authored The Divorce Book, published by New Harbinger Publications. She is a past member of the California and Alaska bar associations. Ms. Blades is also an artist, with works published on both greeting cards and software packaging..
At least they don't go around jamming Republican phone lines so they can't get people to the polls. We have Republicans still in Federal Prison for that here!

George Soros is not the founder or the leader of Move On. He supports them as do many others. Try supporting your allegations with some creditable facts.

What about Rupert Murdock, he's not an American? He owns a HUGE media company the has most of the right wing brainwashed into thinking FOX news is mainstream. I think that is WAY more dangerous.

Some people do not deserve to be born a billionaire... George Soros, and nor does Osma bin...

...I hear royalty had incestral
relationships and that is why they were born mental.....inbreeding! causes the mental illness called Liberlism!

Move on is a hate filled organization. The democrats should distance themselves from it but none of them will do it because the get too much money from them.
