Democratic Congressman Brian Baird, an ardent opponent of the Iraq war, who recently traveled to Iraq and, surprisingly, came back saying that the "surge" is improving things there. This man has angered the Moveon crowd, as they have now taken out attack ads aiming at getting him out of office for the crime of thinking for himself! MoveOn doesn't aim to engage in debate, but to punish and silence Democrats who dare think for themselves. This has become typical of the farleft loons TO EAT THEIR OWN PEOPLE that do not follow lockstep the mantra, Bush bad, Iraq failure. Any Democrat that dares to think for themselves will be harassed and defamed by the Moveon people, these folk have no morals, no scruples and no ethics, their only desire in life is to turn America into some kind of European Model of Secular progressive Blather {GAG} Religion Bad! I do notice they believe in spreading the wealth of the nation helping those that cannot help themselves, as long as it's not their money!
The funding behind MoveOn comes from radical left-wing billionaires George Soros and Peter Lewis, from the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Fund which has assets of nearly $400 million, and from the ultra-liberal "Tides Foundation." MoveOn members also donate. In other words they have deep pockets and do not mind spending millions on the destruction of any member of the democratic party they see as betraying the CAUSE!
There is nothing on the right that compares with the tactics used by MoveOn and the reach it has purchased. These people have co-opted fanatical left mainstream media people at the New York Times and NBC News, among others, and can get their propaganda spread quickly. The far-right has little, if any, access to the mainstream media.
When good men like Senator Lieberman and Congressman Baird become targets of hate and defamation—and their own party doesn't stick up for them—you know something is very wrong. We all saw how quickly the left turned on Joe Lieberman in the Connecticut Primaries, the smear job done on him, the racist and bigoted anti-Semitic remarks spread by the moveon crowd trying to defeat Senator Lieberman and defeat him they did, in the primaries.. but in the general election Joe turned the tables on the moveon crowd and had a sweeping victory despite the millions of dollars poured into defeating him.
