31. I don't see many here defending the Senate's actions.
On the contrary, everybody I see here is donating to MoveOn, including me.

I'm just saying that I think the superficial grounds used for the Senate resolution and accompanying bluster were that one word in the title of that one large ad, which makes it even more ridiculous that the U.S. Senate would waste its time on such a thing. One word in one ad, Senator? What about the EXTENDED SMEAR CAMPAIGNS waged against war heroes John Kerry and Max Cleland?

Somebody would very much like to destroy MoveOn.org and will take every opportunity they can get to achieve that goal. It's too bad that some Dems are complicit. But a lot of Americans including some Democrats would never consider it acceptable, no matter what, to openly criticize or question the allegiance of a military officer who is "giving up his/her life to defend the country." Even knowing from history that sometimes military officers are on the side of the despots, not the people.
