Have you seen this?

Moveon raised 13 Million Dollars in one year .. that sure is a lot of cash for an online website that was JUST starting out

MoveOn.org Virtually Created The "Flash Campaign"
By: Thomas Kennedy
Date: August 17, 1999

Almost one year later, MoveOn.org is leading an online fundraising charge to unseat politically vulnerable House members who voted in favor of Impeachment and lobbying for tougher gun control legislation. So far, the online fundraising and volunteer drive has gathered $13 million in pledges and 750,000 pledged hours for the 2000 Elections from volunteers and supporters across the Internet.

I can't wait to show that communist banner to my LIBERAL wife,in-laws and my Democrat dogs. Why haven't the WSH Time and NY Post slapped the GORE-Communist thing on their front pages. This kind of info would totally help Republicans with the swing voters.

MoveOn.org is a Commie organization ..

Do you know of ANY media organization (including Fox) that made this little fact known when algor spoke to them last week?

It seems like it's fairly relevant to understanding exactly what the Democrat party is all about these days..........

I think FNC might have call them a left leaning group .. but other then that I don't think they really discussed what MoveOn is and who is sponsoring them

Hey William .. I came across this info

Do you know who benefited from this $2.25 billion in financing for the program?

Visitors to the site generated about 11,000 messages between the end of April and last week, when the Federal Communications Commission approved $2.25 billion in financing for the program. Traffic to the site peaked when news outlets covered the e-rate issue

Zack Exley

Why is this name so familiar? Did we have some run-ins with this jerk on FR or anything?

except that in recent months Zack Exley has emerged as a serious player in Democratic politics.

Between him and that nut Bob Mulholland in California, this pretty much proves that in the Democratic Party, all you need to rise to the top of the organization is hate, shamelessness and a total lack of ethics or modesty.

*snicker* We're going to destroy them in November 2004. Absolutely annihilate them.

The group [MoveOn] was founded by multimillionaire California software designers Wes Boyd and Joan Blades, whose company Berkeley Systems created the popular "flying toaster" screensaver.

Multimillionaires and the sources of their wealth:

John D. Rockefeller - Oil Production and Distribution
Andrew Carnegie - Steel Production
Henry Ford - Automobile Manufacturing
William B. Astor - New York City Real Estate
J.P. Morgan - Investment Banking
Wes Boyd and Joan Blades - a "flying toaster" screensaver

What was that song they used to sing on Sesame Street? "Which one of these things doesn't belong?"

OK......sorry if I'm a bit dense here, but I'm trying to figure out how a post by JimRob that's 4 years old fits in to this conversation.......

The Dems have purged their moderates. They are becomming a more and more committed doctrinaire Leftist party. By 2004 or 2008, the Clintons and Joe Lieberman will be the far right wing of the 'Democratic' Party.

Strong feelings, yes.....but about whom, and to whom was that posted, and what are you implying by posting it here on a thread about a Communist organization that hates President Bush?

It has nothing to do with what I posted, as I see it........and if you need clarification as to what I meant (which you apparently do).........there are many leftist wolves posing in conservative sheep's clothing that hang around FR and spread their hatred of the President in an attempt to divide and conquer.

communist party, socialist party, democratic party........

Three means to the same end: The destruction of free enterprise and self sufficiency. What I can't figure out is what role these little pinheads think they will play in such a society.

It doesn't. That ancient post is the first logical fallacy new anti-freepers are taught by their AF brethren: Because JimRob was once against Bush's candidacy way back when, it is "proof" that he is a hypocrite for supporting Bush today, being paid off by the RNC, or any number of laughable claims. The simple reality - that people change their minds about who to support, or even what party to support, all the time - never enters the minds of the angry, bitter conspiracy theorists.

More info on Exley


http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/06/27/politics/main560728.shtml

Others have called Zach Exley, MoveOn's organizing director, a "double agent" since he took a two-week leave of absence to help the Dean campaign set up some campaign software. MoveOn co-founder Wes Boyd argued that he offered Exley's expertise to other candidates, but Dean was the only one to show interest in a significant online progressive organization.
