MoveOn.Org is about as far LEFT as you can get !
I found this article from a post here on FR this morning .

Here is that note posted which I was told was taken from a newsletter from MoveOn.Org (though I haven't been able to find it on their site yet):

Dear MoveOn member,
Impeachment. The 2000 Election. The California Recall. The pattern is becoming clear: there's a group of men in power who will do anything to consolidate that power, including undermining our democratic institutions. We've got to fight back. In Texas, they are fighting back. And while the world is focusing on the California mess, they are fighting alone. They need our help.

A partisan plan pushed by Karl Rove and Tom Delay will redistrict up to 7 Democrats out of Congress. Right now, 11 Democratic State Senators are hiding across state lines -- with the Texas Governor calling for their arrest -- to prevent this illegitimate plan from being strong-armed into law. They have put their reputations and careers on the line for all of us. A letter below from State Senator Rodney Ellis explains the situation in detail. Please read it, and then please help us launch a hard-hitting ad campaign to fight back in Texas. Whether you donate $5 or $5000, you will be helping to hold accountable reckless leaders who think they can get away with anything. Please contribute to this effort now:

[FORGET IT !! I REFUSE to link their donate site!!]

The Texas special session that was called to gerrymander the Texas congressional districts ends early next week, and the pressure is building. These courageous leaders need to see real support now, or they won't be able to hold out.

Our numbers our great enough now to fight back effectively against these attacks on democracy. Please get even more people involved by forwarding this email to everyone you think would like to help.

Thanks,

--Zack and Wes

Heads up ! ...

[MEG33]

Thanks for spreading the word.

[Dead Corpse]

Tell Rodney to Shut the Hell Up and GET BACK TO WORK!!!

[MEG33]

Move On has ties to the communists.

[Dead Corpse]

Then they should be tried in court as traitors and hung. I'm getting really tired of watching them destroy our freedoms a little at a time.

[forktail]

Well really you can't be surprised by this. What are they going to say?

Democrats lose wars and don't show up to work

[MeekOneGOP]

"I know, it sounds more like a banana republic than the dignified democracy on which we have long prided ourselves. "

And just who is it that is making it sound like a banana republic??

[Jeff Gannon]

Indeed it does! And in typical style, they hope to oppress a majority (Republicans) by the tyranny of the minority ruling elite (Democrats).

[Dog Gone]

I think I'm gonna barf.

Dear soon to be known as former Senator Ellis:

"The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union, a republican form of government"
The Constitution for the United States of America

Sincerely,
A Texan

Why is it that there are FOX NEWS ALERTS on every possible thought Arnold Schwarzenegger is contemplating, and yet no mention on a daily basis about the obstruction by the Texas Senate democrats?

I can understand no word from the other channels, but there's been nothing recently on FOX.

I'm not normally into name-calling, but Rodney Ellis is an absolute mega-jackass!

Local radio stations in South Texas are running ads featuring individuals with strong accents telling Juan Hinojosa to get his ass back to work...It's actually pretty hilarious watching the local demonrats reacting to them...:-)

Are they a non-profit?

If so, why?

[trebb]

If we return to our homes, families, friends, and constituents, the Governor of Texas will have us arrested.

One of the problems with trying to circumvent the law is that you can be arrested. Plus, you were not forced to run, you made the decision yourself. All because the Democrats think it is OK to do anything in order to steal votes and that when the Republicans are in power, it is a real problem when they expect representation to match the will of the voter.

The following is a letter by Texas State Senator Rodney Ellis written from "exile" in New Mexico.

Exile? What are they talking about? Ellis abandoned Texas -- Texas didn't "exile" him.

The Democratic Senators currently in Albuquerque have two critical needs.

Nah. Too easy....
