MoveOn's double standard, part deux
Here we find yet another fascinating bit of information about MoveOn's lack of credibility . The site factcheck.org has pointed out an interesting detail about their political ads:
MoveOn.org Political Action attacks three Republican House members in TV ads saying they were "caught red-handed" supporting money spent on Halliburton contracts and wasteful Iraq projects. But a majority of Democrats voted the same way on most of the same measures, usually overwhelmingly. MoveOn endorses one Democratic House member who voted the same way 10 out of 14 times, and two senators who voted for the same measures every time they reached a recorded vote in the Senate. (emphasis added)Apparently you it's bad if you vote a certain way only when you are a Republican, but it is good when you vote that way and you are a Democrat. This is illustrative of the thinking that lies behind liberal loyalty to the Democratic Party.
