You never now what is over the line for people. Rolling Stone is slamming Moveon.org for the outrageous ad they placed in the New York Times today.
For God’s sake, it’s not even clever. A bad pun driving a despicable message.
Listen: General Petraeus may well be carrying water for the Bush administration — I’ll reserve judgment until his microphone starts working. And let me be clear: He is every bit a target of legitimate criticism.
But to impugn the patriotism of a man who is doing what the commander in chief has asked him to do — try to win the war in Iraq — is as despicable as Dick Cheney questioning the patriotism of those Americans who want us to redeploy from Iraq.
MoveOn is practicing a mirror image of Sean Hannity politics. And it deserves all the criticism it is reaping this morning.
Now, I don’t agree with everything they wrote - but I love the fact they are slapping moveon into next week!
