MOVEON.ORG FEATURES AD COMPARING BUSH TO HITLER...

I'll try to answer the posts later. Right now I have to leave

Unbelievable... The majority of the American public will never buy that President Bush (soft-spoken) is like Hitler... One thing the socialist RATS "forgot" to mention - Hitler headed up the National Socialist Party.

That's because that's all there is left to the Democratic Party - hate and spite. They're too insane to realize how evil they truly are while trying to paint conservatives as the second coming of the Nazi Party; I think they must do it to keep convincing themselves that they're superior in some way.

The true mission of the TSA is to turn America into a police state.

Do you actually believe this crap?

They are cutting their own ignorant throats.

If only...

You know, I was resistant to saying anything on this thread, but your post brought this question to mind.

How exactly is what the geeks at moveon are doing ANY different from all those posts here at FR that did the same thing? I remember countless times the images of clinton painted up to look like hitler, and that's not to mention all the people who still refer to hillary as hitlery.

Sorry, but if it's ok for our guys to do it, how is it consistent for us to act all shocked and dismayed when it's done by the other side?

Quite frankly, I find the whole idea of either side compairing clinton or Bush to hitler disgusting, and beneath contempt.

Good one! I have that pic. It looks like my cat, and has the same attitude!

Is WAYSDAH still around? Bet his/hers/its "comments" folder is overflowing right now!

The hatred of the left for our President is beyond comparison

Which is why Bush will win by the biggest landside in US history come November, guaranteed, so I say let it continue, because Bush couldn`t get any bigger help than what those mutts are doing. What convinced me of this? My Grandmother is/was an ardent life long liberal Democrat who is so disgusted by what these idiots are doing, she`s voting for Bush, voting Republican for the first time in her life. No I didn`t say anything to convince her. She just blurted it out of left field (pardon the pun) one night which blew me and the rest of my familys mind. To give you an idea how liberal she is, it was like hearing Al Franken or Michael Moore say they were going to vote for Bush. That`s how much damage these idiots are doing to the Rat party, and I have no doubt she isn`t the only one who has changed her mind.

such lovely people those moveon.org people

I understand what you're saying, but to my knowledge, no Republican candidate has ever done or sponsored a TV spot comparing any demokrat to Hitler, or associating somebody with being a racist, as have the dems.

Didn't they take a bunch of Soro's money. Wonder how many other foreign nationals and foreign organizations they are taking $$$ from. Got to wonder how many of them have connections to a very unsavory crowd who doesn’t like what Bush is accomplishing in their neighborhoods.

Which one of the dem candidates sponsored this?

The media refuses to do that, but you are correct. I get your drift....

MoveOn would be more aptly titled Can'tMoveOn

"Isn't Move-On just an obnoxious front for that last stronghold of Stalinism, the American Communist Party?"

Here are just two of the articles I've archived from www.cpusa.org relating to moveon.org; until a couple of months ago, there was a 'hard link' to Moveon.org on the communist webpage...not a hyperlink added by some novice. There was a place that requested the communist supporters logon and support MoveOn.org. The link has been removed...probably because moveon wised up a little.

The following two articles on the communist website may or may not still be available; I haven't checked lately. (cpusa does NOT stand for 'cute people of the usa' BTW. It DOES stand for an organization that will destroy everything our forefathers fought and died for...if we don't start standing up to garbage like that!)

Push Bush Out the Door in 2004

Some members of the Congressional Progressive, Black and Hispanic caucuses are working on the “inside” to challenge the Bush agenda in a way that gives a handle to organizing at the grass roots. For example, legislation to investigate the claim of weapons of mass destruction…
The “Take Back America” conference in June showed a changing stance by progressive Democrats in attendance. Peace, taxing the rich, affirmative action, immigrant rights and civil liberties were welcomed into the agenda, as was a big-tent approach toward uniting with those independent voters and Greens who agree that the number-one issue at this moment is to defeat George Bush.

As a result, MoveOn.org conducted the first-ever internet early presidential primary this week. It is noteworthy that every Democratic presidential candidate felt compelled to send a letter to the 1.4 million MoveOn members, who joined in opposition to the war.

ACORN and others are focusing on progressive ballot initiatives as a mechanism for getting out the vote. In Florida, they are sponsoring a Living Wage Initiative on the ballot. Ballot initiatives also have the potential for building unity among the broader left with labor and people’s alliances on the basis of issues.

Eleven states, including California, New York and Illinois as well as Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, District of Columbia, are considered Democratic base states. They hold 161 electoral votes out of a total of 270 electoral votes needed to win election.

With this in mind, the AFL-CIO is placing resources into 16 presidential battleground states where the outcome could be changed if more union members and their families turn out to vote. They are: Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Florida, New Hampshire, Maine. In addition, four leaning states have been selected: Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Colorado.

The national drives to organize Cintas and Wal-Mart make a significant contribution toward the 2004 elections by placing the right to organize as a top issue. A standard measure for members of Congress and local elected officials is whether they took an active stand with the workers.

In this regard, the Steelworkers union has joined with environmental groups to propose a massive job creation program (called Apollo) in the energy and transportation sectors,. Their members chose the main issues of concern. The question could be asked: would you rather have jobs under the Apollo program, or would you rather have Bush and lose even more jobs from your community?

The election to Los Angeles City Council of Antonio Villaraigosa and Martin Ludlow, Mexican American and African American labor leaders respectively, deserves study on how they built the unity to win. In Evelina Alarcon’s report to the CPUSA’s Mexican American Equality Commission, she characterizes the election of the team as “transforming the politics of the city” and laying the basis for 2004.

IN THIS ISSUE:

CREATE AN INDEPENDENT COMMISSION TO INVESTIGATE THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION'S DISTORTION OF EVIDENCE FOR WAR ON IRAQ.

The Communist Party USA urges your full support for the campaign being launched by MoveOn.org to support a call for an independent investigation into lies that George W. Bush administration told to justify going to war against Iraq.

The lie about knowing that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction is the biggest lie of many that this administration used to convince the American people that the war was necessary and legal. It is a basic violation of our democratic institutions and democracy, to say the least.

Please pass this message on to other friends, contacts and lists and circulate as widely as possible. The appeal from MoveOn.org follows.

Dear friend,

The president took the nation to war based on his assertion that Iraq posed an imminent threat to our country. Now the evidence that backed that assertion is falling apart. If the Bush administration distorted intelligence or knowingly used false data to support the call to war, it would be an unprecedented deception.

Even if weapons are now found, it'll be difficult to justify pre-war language that indicated that the exact location of the weapons was known and that they were ready to deploy at a moment's notice. With a crisis of credibility brewing abroad and the integrity of our President and our foreign policy on the line, we need answers now. Rep. Henry Waxman has introduced legislation to create an independent commission to investigate the Bush administration's distortion of evidence.

Please ask your representative to pledge his or her support at: http://www.moveon.org/wmdpledge/

A president may make no more important decision than whether or not to take a country to war. If Bush and his officials deceived the American public to create support for the Iraq war, they need to be held accountable. Thanks.
