Five days after setting off a political firestorm with an ad in The New York Times attacking the top U.S. commander in Iraq, MoveOn.org has set its sights on President Bush.

The liberal advocacy group announced Friday it is rolling out a new national television ad campaign next week accusing Bush of "a betrayal of trust."

Moveon.org has the courage to say what the useless Democratic cowards - like Susan Davis (D-CA) who funded Bush's War - will not say.

John Kerry is useless coward. How dare he not support moveon.org's add about the disgusting human being David Petraeus. No wonder Kerry lost. Once a loser... always a loser.

Keep at it moveon.org !!!

Too bad all those idiots that still support Bush and his war won't volunteer to go to Iraq and fight, so our beloved troops can come home!

Bush is a traitor to US and to our US Constitution! What more proof does Congress need to start Impeachment proceedings against him and Cheney???

Again the Idiots on the right get it wrong caught yet in another lie and twisted facts they attack a AD and its message and give credibilty to a MORON in the WH. and his Traitoreous VP. Both Anti American Both TRAITORS and the Idiots in the 29% base still support the MORONS.

I think its significant that almost universally the press has been referring to these ads being placed by "left-wing" moveon.org, one can only assume in an efforit to 'marginalize' the message. Sure, they're stating the obvious truth but they're just one of those "left-wing" groups. What isn't mentioned is any organization that isn't hard-right is ipso-facto "Left-wing".

My question is why are Republicans, one after another, even some who are relatively decent persons, so comfortable with liars. They attack mercilessly homosexuals as sinners. Why are they so unaware, those who call themselves followers of Jesus, that no where in Scripture does Jesus condemn homosexuals in his time, but has very strong words for liars. Why can't Republicans see their own hypocrisy here? It would appear that they are too accepting of serial liars, beginning with the one in the WH.

Go MoveOn.org!!!

They don't know it yet, but the children of today's entrenched, misled Republicans will be thankful to each and every Liberal who stood his or her ground against the tyranny and oppression of George W. Bush.

I bet there's 47 Republican senators that are a bit uneasy these days.

MoveOn.org: American heroes fighting against unAmerican thieves, murderers, and liars. It truly is that simple. Thanks again, MoveOn.org.

John Kerry is a FRAT BROTHER OF GEORGE W. BUSH. His opinion concerning Moveon.org are self serving and vacuous as they are designed to protect THE EXISTING RULING CLASS to which they both belong!
TELLING THE HARD TRUTH, as Moveon is doing, CAN NOT BE "OVER THE TOP"!
The lies and manipulations which the BUSH/CHENY/LIEBERMAN CABAL along with their fellow travelers have been perpetrating upon this nation and the world at large ARE SO FAR "OVER THE TOP" as to defy REASON ITSELF, so babble me no more babble about "OVER THE TOP"!
As an old soldier who served this country for eight years and three days in two combat zones, my considered opinion is that "BETRAYUS PETRAEUS" should be court marshalled for "CONDUCT UNBECOMMING TO AN OFFICER", stripped of his rank, and discharged!
Now how is that for "OVER THE TOP"?

Any senior officer who, like Petraeous, insinuates himself into a national election on the side of a party in power--like he did in the 2004 election by publishing an OpEd piece in praise of the handling and progress of the war in Iraq--is a viable, legitimate target of public scrutiny and criticism. (Unheard of in our recent political history, BTW.)

The party and politician who live by the sword, dies by the sword.

Quit whining.

the Regressive Republican Party is nothing but a bunch of whiny,sissified,butt-kissing,a*s-wipes, walking around with their pampers filled to the brim!
It's ok for these dick-heads to slam the war disabled,men who've "Seen the elephant", men who've actually been decorated for heroism in a war, "but noooooooooooooooo," they would rather wander, back and forth across the country praising, worshipping, and carrying-water, like church acolytes, for a idiot-savant, who wouldn't recognize the truth,even if it ran him over!
These whiners, whining like 4 year-old snotty-nosed kids, because someone actually wrote the truth about General Betraeus, have no room on the public stage, for their party is the party that brought us,"Swiftboat Vets for the Truth!"
You see in the Regressive Republican Party it's ok to bash gays,even when you are one, beat your wife, all awhile passing laws to convict them, molest young boy's and girls,all awhile doing the same to your own children,and on and on!
It's ok to do these things, if your a Regressive Republican, cause it only counts if someone from another party does it!

Move on.org should run an add asking Nancy Pelosi to take her fat ass off the table and put impeachment back on it. Move on sucks as much as the party shill for.

It's good Moveon did this. Keep on.

The strategy for GW is to blame the lefties just like what happened with Vietnam.

Soooo...in a way--it's a good thing the Dems have been able to hang the war on GW.
Back in the Vietnam days-the GOP was winning the propaganda war in the country-making the "hippy" left the reason for losing Vietnam.
This time around----over 70% of Americans know Iraq was a bad idea. Can't blame the lefties for this. The progress on the war-and management- are losing ventures. Now Dems have the upper hand on the PR. No One is buying the WH spin.
Keep the pR offense up Moveon. Dems it's now time to act on the war if possible. It's hung on GWs' neck like a concrete block. That part is done. NOW ACT.
