“The Americans Against Escalation in Iraq, a coalition that includes MoveOn, is mounting a multimillion-dollar campaign aimed at 23 senators and 70 representatives to chip away at support for Bush’s war strategy. The 10-week-long campaign includes nearly 100 organizers in 15 states. But its only targets are Republicans who have not supported a firm timetable for troop withdrawals.’

Thank you Senator John McCain.

“Ultimately, the war ends because there is this cataclysmic showdown between the Republicans who are getting pinched by the public and the White House,” predicted Tom Matzzie, Washington director for MoveOn.

What. An. Idiot. How about "ultimately the war ends because WE WIN"!?!?!

“When children do something bad, you can’t always be angry,” Matzzie said. “You want them to build confidence and feel bold, and feel like they have people behind them. And we want Democratic leaders to feel like they have people behind them that if they push, they’re going to be rewarded.”


ROFLMAOPMP!!!

Who get’s to burp Pelosi, Reid and Murtha?

“MoveOn is very conservative,” Angeline said.

Dang it! She’s on to us.

Sue Udry, legislative action coordinator for United for Peace and Justice, a coalition of 1,300 advocacy groups. “We’re essentially two different animals.”

1) Any...ahem..."woman" with a last name of Udry has questionable appearance factors.
2) 1,300? As in one thousand, three hundred? Probably every one of these so-called advocacy groups consists of one member per.
3) "We're...animals." Well, we agree on at least that much, hee hee.

“The split has also underlined accusations among some activists that MoveOn has abandoned its credentials as an issue-based advocacy group and now instead provides cover for Democratic Party leaders.”

HELLO!
Exactly WHAT did you think an organization infested with Clintonites was going to do when she started running???

Where to start.....?

[Anti-war activists throughout the country are united in spending August pressing lawmakers to bring U.S. troops home. But tensions within the movement have been bubbling for months over tactics and whether their fire should be aimed exclusively at Republicans.]

The people who voted for Democrats thinking that they were voting for bringing troops home begin to wonder “What the heck...?”

[Some activist groups say MoveOn is giving a pass to Democratic leaders, whom they say are not taking a hard enough line to stop funding U.S. involvement in the war.]

“...Why did I bother to pry my butt off the couch (and miss reruns of ‘Friends’) to go down to the polling place and vote for a Democrat?”

[“We need to continue to hold the feet to the fire of the Democratic leadership,” said Jeff Leys, co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Non-Violence, whose group is holding protests at the local offices of Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), who also sits on the Appropriations Committee. “If we’re focusing on just the Democrats or just the Republicans, we’re missing the point.”]

They’re starting to realize they’ve missed the point, but they don’t quite yet comprehend which point they’ve actually missed.

[The dispute over strategy has escalated since March, when MoveOn supported Pelosi’s effort to move a $124 billion war funding bill that included a call for troop withdrawal by next summer. Its language did not call for a complete withdrawal of troops. Groups on the left strongly criticized Pelosi and MoveOn for their support of the measure, but MoveOn said it was a pragmatic approach to build support for ending the war.

The anti-war groups get an inkling about which other groups are their allies, and which are merely fronts for the Democrats.

[Moira Mack, a spokeswoman for the Americans Against Escalation in Iraq, said Republicans are feeling the heat because they have overwhelmingly supported Bush’s war strategy, unlike Democrats. “This is not about Democrats or Republicans, this is about a war policy that is failing,” Mack said.]

Oh, my God! We’ve been duped into supporting a position that is about Democrats versus Republicans, when we thought we were supporting a principled ideology.

[One anti-war activist, who asked not to be named, said animosity between MoveOn and other groups on the left simply boils down to a difference in style. “MoveOn is as ardent as Code Pink,” he said.]

Well, some of us are still holding out hope. The Democrats will do exactly what they promised to do: put an immediate end to the Iraq war, capture all the terrorists, make countries around the world love us unconditionally, repeal the Bush tax cuts ending poverty in America, pass a law that purifies the environment while supporting small business owners and hardworking Americans at the same time and ending racism, bigotry, homophobia, sexism and any and all forms of hatred. And where the heck is my tin-foil hat???

We may still have some popcorn leftovers ourselves, after that immigration fiasco...

We could just send it to them. :)

First of all, why does the news media get to claim that MoveOn is anti-war?

MoveOn was founded in 1998 in response to Free Republic’s March on Washington impeachment drive...and said NOT A PEEP against President Clinton’s 1999 air war on Serbia over Kosovo.

I wonder how Angeline would characterize me? I must be a fascist in her eyes...

At the risk of an O’Reilly attack I have to say I hate lefties. What a wonderful world it would be without them. They serve no useful purpose and put us all in danger.

IMHO, this squabble is LESS about ideologies or practices, and MORE about posturing. Each one of them wants to be the HSOC (Head Socialist On Campus), so they b!tch about each other. The Democrats are a COALITION party, and for that matter, and its revenue-generating whacko-organizing "grass"-roots groups have their own agendas.

“MoveOn is very conservative,” Angeline said. “When they said, ‘We should support the supplemental,’ they betrayed us.”

They probably seem that way to stone cold Communists.
