My Vow: I will never visit Moveon – those who publish and push it are the equivalent of a mischievous, malicious “fake” friend that turns on a dime to leave a “friend” in the dust.
My thoughts: If General Petraeus had testified to the benefit of the Left and the Democrats, they would have praised him and held him up on a pedestal. I think it’s foolish of the democrats to sit by and not come to his aide and it will, in the long run, only prove to show how hypocritical and one-sided they are no matter who goes against them.
It’s much like Bob being Jim’s best friend and doing anything for him… UNLESS… Jim does not have the exact same beliefs and ideals; and when it’s proved that he does not… the “fake” friend, Bob, turns his back on his friend and whips around lunging a knife into Jim’s back. This is what the Democrats and the Left seem to do more and more… “if you’re not one of us… then you are our enemy”.

News today:
CNN – President Bush today condemned the recent MoveOn.org advertisement that described Army Gen. David H. Petraeus as General “Betray-Us,” voicing disappointment that leading Democrats had not denounced it as well.
USA Today — The Senate voted Thursday to condemn an advertisement by the liberal anti-war group MoveOn.org that accused the top military commander in Iraq of betrayal. The 72-25 vote condemned the full-page ad that appeared in The New York Times last week as Gen. David Petraeus, the top military commander in Iraq, testified on Capitol Hill. The ad was headlined: “General Petraeus or General Betray Us? Cooking the books for the White House.”
