Following Wednesday night's CNN/YouTube Republican debate, recent CNN arrival Campbell Brown hosted a special entitled Campaign Killers, which dealt with the negative nature of campaign advertising in American politics. Unfortunately, Brown decided to do some dirty and rather offensive campaigning herself, referring to MoveOn.org as "American Insurgents."
More from Media Matters:
BROWN: General David Petraeus made his reputation taking on insurgents in Iraq. But when he came to Capitol Hill in September, he was confronted by American insurgents, a liberal anti-war group called MoveOn.org. MoveOn bought this full-page ad in The New York Times. It accused Petraeus of betraying us by cooking the books on progress in Iraq. Read on...

Isn't Campbell "Soup" Brown married to someone in Bushco?
MOVEON? That is the most mainstream, lukewarm excuse of a 'left wing' site I've ever seen, so is Kos.
I only read C&L for the scandal coverage, and snippets of media since I don't watch TV.
I'm proud to be an "insurgent" in that case.
Higher ranking officer positions have ruthless applicants who use even worse language in regards to their competitors for these limited number of positions, so I'm sure Petraeus has heard worse.
Afterall, at some point he had to be a second louie.
I thought Campbell Brown was unbiased.....guess I was wrong. So I guess she's like all the rest. Expecting all of you to follow your leaders blindly, no matter what they say, no matter what they do(or don't do)
Does it surprise you that any woman who would be married to Dan Senor would tilt right?
"American insurgents" is that the same thing as not supporting the troops and all that other stuff anti war folks have been called since this damned war was started?
in·sur·gent (ĭn-sûr'jənt) pronunciation
adj.
1. Rising in revolt against established authority, especially a government.
2. Rebelling against the leadership of a political party.
Personally if I were a member of moveon.org I'd wear the term "american insurgent" with pride when it comes to opposing the Bush administration. To me it has a connotation of the people rising up against an occupying or oppressive authority...
blahsay @ 7:
Bingo!
"bring it on"
Even their smug comments are rehashes of GW's bravado! Isn't there an independent mind in the whole GOP party?
What a fascist c**t
Jesus f**king christ there really is nowhere to get plain ol' information anymore.
What makes that f**king bitch think we give a sh*t about her opinions?
This is a hit piece on Moveon served up by CNN.
Everyone know Pateaus is and was lying.
MoveOn tell sthe truth and the blood thirsty cowards come out.
"Campbell Brown is a blue chipper"-Coach Pinochet
What??? A partisan news anchor in this day and age??? No, I don't believe that for a second (snicker snicker)!!!
What an asshole!

[deleted - knock it off]
I’m proud to be an “insurgent” in that case.
Ruhh Rohhh, talk like that will get you smeared by Michelle Malkin and you won't ever get to show your face in a Wal-Mart ever again!
Yuk Yuk Yuk
MoveOn.org can alienate swing voters the Dem consultant says?? Screw 'em. If they're sitting on the fence about the war this far down the road, then they're idiots who don't deserve anyone's attention.
I agree we should get the hell of Iraq, but I would like to know what does Moveon.org do with all the cash it gets??!! Seriously according to that piece of "journalism" it made about 1.5 million in cash.... I wonder what its doing with the money... forget the betray us crap, give the money to the iraqi children ....
normally I don't complain about certain posters..but this "ron paul" stuff is C R A P
Just because someone "tells it like it is" doesn't mean you should ignore their other "ideas"....freakin idiots

Anointed by SCOTUS in 2000 stolen election in 2004; I'd say our country is being occupies by an elected administration who basically scored two coups to get in and stay in the WH.
Yah, American Insurgents, sounds right. Hoorah!!
Mike the Canuck @ 5:
What what what??? Campbell Brown is one of the worst BushCo sluts in the entire corporate media! Where did you EVER get the notion that she had a speck of journalistic integrity? Honestly, if you can find one example, we'd all love to see it!
How long before the brownshirts get here?
Speaking of shirts, I think I would buy a t-shirt that said "American Insurgent" and had that dictionary definition at comment 7 on the back.
I am sure she made her husband proud... Dan Senor served as a Senior Advisor to then-Presidential Envoy L. Paul Bremer III.
You're damned right we're 'American Insurgents', fighting against the invaders who would steal our nation, our liberties, our history from us.
Do not give an inch to the invaders, the republican zionist bushies, who lie, steal, assault our nation. Fight them in the open, ambush them, destroy them and their despicable, amoral, indefensible administration.
And when they are gone, make sure that 'NEVER AGAIN' IS EMBLAZONED IN THE HEART OF EVERY TRUE, 'INSURGENT' AMERICAN.
Sent my thoughts to CNN
Please let them know how you feel!!!!!
Campbell Brown?
Move On. org "American terrorists"?
Please.
She should disclose at the beginning of every show who she is married to.
I am not an American Terrorist and I supported Move On ad.
This is a free country and freedom of speech is allowed.
I used to think that CNN was a good news channel.
Now with Campbell Brown and Glenn Beck, How low can you go?
Please, just the facts, I'd like to make my mind up for myself.
I don't need Campbell Brown's suspect version of events. I wonder who she is speaking for. The White House or CNN???
Campbell Brown is an almost-identical clone of Katie Couric.
I'll leave it to you to judge which is the bigger (deleted).
Piss on Campbell Brown! (her husband does, and she gets off on it)
Just another wing-nut wanna-be...Does she look a little like Coulter??
Omfg, here we go again with this BS. It was an add that was meant to make people think, and since when is anyone in a free country above criticism? Why can't anyone legitamately question the kiss ass, can do, don't ask questions such impress your superiors mentality of the military institution? Time and time again we see how people worrying about reputation have let oppertunities slip through the fingers from fear of pissing off brass above them (how many times have we almost caught the 911 masterminds), and those that do speak out are shunned, and by die-hard support the troop Republicans ussually. We support the troops, but only if they support our agenda. Now here's this stupid non-issue again being brought back out to distract from the real issues....
The Revolutionary War was won by insurgents.
P.S. Sorry for all the typos, I'm at work doing 5 things at once.
The government will come after American insurgents.
The laws are being put into place, they are already redefining who a "terrorist" or "insurgent" is. They are training firemen (Fahrenheit 451 types) to look for books and materials for those who are "discontent" with the government, etc... the Patriot Act, Military Commission Act, dissolution of posse comitus, executive orders outlining martial law...etc, etc.
the tools are already in place - tasers, haliburton camps, spy blimps, spy drones by domestic police forces, soundwave protest guns, microwave heat beams - and all sorts of non-lethal devices.
Don't think it won't happen?
Think again.
Like in a chess game, you preposition your pieces step by step, then you move in for the strike.
Do American Insurgents have to sign a bushco repub loyalty oath?
blahsay @ 7:
Wear it with pride if you want but that ignores the entire purpose of the intent of the term. Not only was this not meant as a compliment, it was also intended to turn the discourse and public sentiment away from the original focus and on to a negative image of a group that is trying to make America see itself and its leaders in the light of truth. The headline of the ad is the biggest mistake as it can and is taken completely out of context and is easily used against its writers. The 'Betray us' is the use of misinformation and semantics by the ideologues in the administration who twist and deform the truth to justify, and thereby get the voting public to accept, its own immoral and unethical ( and inept) ends and the means to those ends. There was and is no contextual implication in the ad that Petraeus was a traitor to his country by involvement with the enemy. These people are smart and devious and manipulative and they use any means of rhetoric against dissenters of its policies. Take nothing that comes out of their mouths as regards their political enemies as a compliment.
Yes Bud she's married to Daniel Samuel Senor
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Senor
Seems to me like the bitch is getting her questions fed to her by JimmyJeff Gannon-Guckert.
campbell brown married the mouthpiece for war criminals. it's too bad dan senor will never be tried as an accomplice to war crimes.
Insurgents, unpatriotic, un-American, bla bla bla. How about telling the truth rather than attempting to discredit your opposer's. The truth will set you free but it does have a tad bit of a sting to it....... is that a swarm I hear......
Nice little fascist trial balloon you're floating there, Campbell. The next time you open your marionette mouth, please add disclosures indicating who gives you your talking points.
Why doesn't she have to throw in a disclaimer when she does any reports about BushCo? You know. Like the news companies have to do when they do a story that has something to do with one of their parent companies or subsidiaries? Afterall, BushCo is her parent company, right?
Truth Be Told @ 31:
Guess you'll be moving into a cave somewhere then. Started stockpiling yet?
By wingnut standards, most Americans are traitorous insurgents -- and their ranks are growing.
Won't be long before we see Campbell interviewing the last non-insurgents huddled together in one of Cheney's undisclosed locations.
Viva la revolución!
Does this mean that we are losing to a bunch of bloggers in Iraq?
“By the early 1950s…(the State Dept.) owned respected members of the New York Times, Newsweek, CBS and other communications vehicles, plus stringers, four to six hundred in all, according to a former CIA analyst….Early MOCKINGBIRD influenced 25 newspapers and wire agencies consenting to act as organs of CIA propaganda.”
- former Village Voice Reporter Deborah Davis commenting on the CIA Program Operation Mockingbird to infiltrate the media

*** I submit the possibility that Campbell Brown is a media figure who in reality is part of Operation Mockingbird v.2007
mo_dems @ 40:
Are you being snide?
You think that they do all this just to pat themselves on the back and say hey look what we have done? No, they do these things to eventually use them.
I guess you will be like Solzhenitsyn when he lamented that he wished he did something when the state police came through the homes and took people to the Gulags.
From what I've read and seen, a lot of members of the military and/or their families are MoveOn members. Are they "insurgents" too? This is just stupid. It basically likens a newspaper ad to roadside IEDs.
I'm with the Resistance. I'm not saying which one.
Brown is just another scared asshole Bushie. This is the type of females the Bushies love to scare - specially if they are so called journalists. Brown has never been any good, just watch old reports when she was reporting from the White House. Anyone can see that she was a scared Bushie. All we have to do is write CNN and avoid watching them.
Incredible. That shouldn't surprise anyone, CNN is allowed to broadcast. CNN has a following of supplicants to the very people who are succeeding in implementing a global agenda, it's called . You can ignore the title as a description of the content of the plan, the title is designed to make you ignore it. You will need to read the document to understand. Under-stand, to stand under and look up at the foundations, and to see with your own eyes. I encourage you to do this quickly. When you have, vot(if)ing for one or other of your choices makes no difference, they are sides of the same coin, the candle burned out long before. Good luck, we all need it.
Hey, sticks and stones....if she wants to reduce her credibility even further and become a talking point tool...go ahead...I defend her right to free speech to make an idiot out of herself.
Doug @ 43:
No, we're fighting the bloggers here so we don't have to fight them there.
Insurgents?
Ah yes, that makes it ok to arrest them, torture them and shoot them.
jgr4 @ 21:
How can we get it put onto CafePress? Maybe Moveon could sell it as a money-raiser! Only draw back would be that then anyone who bought it could be arrested as supporting an insurgency agency and "detained" indefinitely, or least til after the election.
It's official. CNN has jumped the shark and I am over it. Only thing now to ever watch on cable news is Keith Olbermann.
Hey, I'm an Insurgent. Nothing wrong with that.
By the by, ask Bernard Shaw what he thinks CNN is like now...
jarnex @ 48:
OK followed the link, now what? Is there a smoking gun section to read? Like PNAC's "pearl harbor" or do you want me to read the whole damn thing?!
Well, it is really easy to kill her campaign :Turn off the TV!
Diane @ 24:
I supported the MoveOn.org ad, too. I'd wear the "American insurgent" title with pride, given the definition at comment 7. However, I'm not sure I agree with your next statement -- with the current status of civil liberties in this country, I'm not sure we can still consider ourselves a free country with true freedom of speech, no matter what the constitution says.
Which is just one more reason why Bush and Cheney really ought to be impeached...
Campbell Brown is loyalty to the republican leadership that it almost seems to be congenital - any relationship to Eva Braun?????
AND I'M PROUD TO BE AN INSURGENT... WHEN AT LEAST I KNOW I'M FREE!
Brawlin_Dem @ 39:
Good question. She should have to reveal her background. If American citizens who may have volunteered to work gratis for or been on a mailing list of a Democratic candidate somewhere among their past have to "disclose" that citizenship-cancelling "fact" to CNN, then why doesn't she have to preface all of her political (hit) pieces with the fact that she's married to Dan Senor & here's his history so we know why she has to disclose it? Or keep her way the hell away from anything that might even remotely mention BushCo now or anytime in the future. That's even better. Restrict her to the Paris-Britney beat.
blahsay @ 7:
We need a T-shirt. And bumper magnets. I'll get to work designing something.
Signed,
Another Proud American Insurgent
mo_dems @ 40:
What cave are you living in Mo_dems? You can't see what the Bush gang is up to? Martial law is coming. Look at all the signs enumerated above and tell me that it's all just pretend. There will be no election. I repeat there will be no election. Bush and Cheney will not relinquish their power unless forced to. Many will say "but it's in the constitution, they can only serve 2 terms". Have you seen the shape of the constitution lately. It's kind of tattered isn't it? The only thing that will save the country and the world is a new revolution. The entire political spectrum needs to be swept from office into jail at the very least. Take out all the hacks who couldn't care less about the people and who only lust for power and money. Republicans and Democrats are both guilty of it. There will not be impeachment because it would show that the Democrats are just as guilty as the Republicans when it comes to graft and abuse of power.
chervilant @ 62:
Absolutely stellar idea!!!
Campbell Browneye is the type of right wing mutt that you purposely treat like pure shit and feel good about it.
insurgent?
i'll take that as a compliment
Then Brown doesn't understand the meaning of insurgence.
She's married to Paul Bremer lackey, Dan Senor, of Fox News.
Sweet Al @ 68:
Dan Senor worked for the Carlyle Group from 2001-2003. He also held a number of posts in the office of former Senator Spencer Abraham, R-MI.
Senor served as a Senior Advisor to then-Presidential Envoy L. Paul Bremer III, Administrator of the Coalition Provisional Authority. Senor traveled to Baghdad in mid-April in one of the first civilian convoys to enter Iraq following the fall of the former regime. He advised Amb. Bremer on a variety of policy and communications issues. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, Senor was based at Centcom Headquarters in Qatar, where he was Director of the Coalition Information Center.
Fair and balanced right?
That snippet is a snapshot of modern MSM journalism. Strong on eliciting emotional response, empty of information. Most TV reporting is a hatchet job.
Watching this, it dawned on me the chimp could declare moveon a danger and seize their assets and nothing could stop him.
Remember, remember the fifth of November....
In 2006, she married Daniel Samuel Senior a Republican consultant who regularly appears on Fox News. CNN should broadcast that disclaimer w/ every piece she works on.
Nothing wrong with calling Move=On insurgents when you look at the meaning of the word.
Iraq insurgents are simply people fighting for their country, not the bogeyman as MSM depicts them
Move-On is doing the same without bullets.
They should be proud!
Isn't she screwing Blimpaugh.
Just look at her body language.
Legs crossed and tightly clamped. Arms protecting her abdomen.
Fear
CNN, in my eyes, is worse than Faux News
At least FN has always been a joke, and almost comes across as parody when you watch it
John Haag @ 72:
Thats the point. She needed to inform her audience the foundation of moveon. Why they came into existence, what they are about. She leaves a huge void to be filled in with fearful images, like a child in the dark. It's a shitty propaganda trick.
Chicago Joe @ 12:
and full of shit. :(
CNN’s Campbell Brown Calls MoveOn.org “American Insurgents”
So? That's an insult? Like it or not people, we're being pushed into war. America vs. Amerika.
Well, color me insurgent, too.
It's better than wanting to deny freedom of speech to the citizenry and promote the occupation of another country.
Is Campbell Brown a traitor to the United States?
Campbell's obviously interviewing for a job at Fox, but unfortunately there are many others who think that any response other than "yes sir, that's okay sir" to our country's policy decisions is unpatriotic.
I created a website that sells tee-shirts with politically-minded messages of a blue perspective. Unknowingly, in addition to a great many 'attaboys' from like-minded souls, this has let loose a surprising amount of ill will from others, some of which has come from some of my friends who disagree with me actively taking issue with the Bush administration and the right wing in general. I guess I'm just another American Insurgent in Campbell's eyes. Check out bluestatements.com
" All things Republican " perspective from the good Mrs. Senor
Ahh yes. And so it begins, just as I have long foreseen...
Personally, if I were an American, I would have donated to MoveOn many many times to date.
And I too, would be proud to call myself an insurgent. I would dare my so called government to do something about it. Just try.
Move-On should have quoted Adm. Fallon, Petraeus's boss, when describing Petraeus. He called him an "Ass-kissing little Chickenshit"

Bob @ 52:
Hey, Bob! Great minds think alike. We can and should design, produce and WEAR a t-shirt that says "American Insurgent" with the dictionary def on the back!!! I am in the process of designing such a shirt. Site Monitor--are you reading this?! Let's get to work! This could be a great fundraiser for my fave insurgent blog!

who should STFU! just one more fucktard spewing his bull$hit known as the party line
CNN now has two conservative hit women -- Campbell Brown and Suzanne Malveaux(sp?). Their bias is so evident in their "reporting" I can't stand to watch them.
L.A. Confidential @ 74:
Well done! You saw right through her... she's totally afraid and scared. How pitiful...
chervilant @ 84:
Hell Yes, I will buy and wear one! Another proud insurgent here, fighting the illegal government that has overcome this country and proving that the pen is mightier than the sword. I am disabled so could not wield a sword but can still use a pen. Every time they mention that ad more people log onto MoveOn and their membership as well as donations increase so we can continue our fight!
the bad thing is that dopes like this broad keep getting positions on the air. the good thing is that she seems so dumb that she'll discredit herself pretty quickly.
Hey, I just came up with an idea for us single left wingers . If you meet a person who on a date starts spouting out that pro-war Bush was right shit, do the country a favor and treat them like the dumbass that they are by making them pay the bill and order something you know you don't want. Help the economy. Anyone who supports what going on today will go along ,trust me.
Houston, we have a problem.
Top House Dem aide on Murtha: “Pelosi is going to be furious” that the surge is working
Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.), one of the leading anti-war voices in the House Democratic Caucus, is back from a trip to Iraq and he now says the "surge is working." This could be a huge problem for Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other Democratic leaders, who are blocking approval of the full $200 billion being sought by President Bush for combat operations in Iraq in 2008......
Murtha told CNN on July 12, following a Bush speech, that the president's views on the success of surge in Iraq were "delusional."....
"This could be a real headache for us," said one top House Democratic aide, speaking on the condition of anonymity. "Pelosi is going to be furious."
It's not so much anti-war as anti-crime. In this Orwellian world where black is white and up is down being anti US aggression/ crime is called "insurgency" by corporate media shills.
Campbell Brown is a fricking idiot. She's as dumb as a box of rocks and proves it whenever she opens her mouth.
American Insurgents = Enemy Combatant. You know how this game is played, they're frightened of the power of the internet, and will do everything they can to vilify progressives. Until they can just lock us up.
again, must I remind everyone that Campbell has been a neocon pitchwoman for years now. Married to Dan Senor, one of the root reasons Iraq is such a failed state, she wears her hatred of descent like a holiday scarf! Shame on CNN for hiring the female version of Glenn Beck.
Pay no attention to the nitwit with the lava-lamp! When he says, 'MoveOn can do as much harm as good," he's basically saying, 'They're not obligated to kiss the ass of anyone with a 'D' after their names...hear that, Diane Feinstein?
Are they still on that kick? Yes, let's all bow and scrape to General David Petraeus and refuse to question his veracity, despite the fact that his proclamations about the Iraq War several years ago were utterly incompetent and incorrect. After all, this is only the kind of treatment that we pathetic Americans are expected to lavish on a loyal Bushie. However, the Neocons, Republicans, and the weak-willed Democrats failed to have similar outrage when John Kerry was swift-boated, or Murtha was trashed, or when Faux News ran their headline about generals on the ground in Iraq being "a disgrace" or Rush Limbaugh's "phony soldiers" commentary. As usual, they have a "get-out-of-jail-free" card dealt them so they can conduct themselves and say anything that they wish without repercussions, but anyone having the audacity to hold them accountable gets thrown under the bus, not just by the Republican hacks but the Democrats as well.
Okay, fellow insurgents,
I have the perfect font, very distressed looking and an easy transfer to t-shirts. Who's in? If you are interested in wearing such a t-shirt, with the understanding that the proceeds are to benefit one of my fave blogs (C & L--hope you agree there!), I have a friend in the t-shirt biz I could contact today.
I will need to see sufficient interest to warrant an initial order.
It accused Petraeus of betraying us by cooking the books on progress in Iraq.
Which lo and behold WAS indeed the truth!! Why are these weak fearful lame wingnuts so reality challanged anyway?
The GOP congressional occupiers will loose more of their seats in the next election cycle at the hands of the insurgency.
BTW, those of you who are posting that Murtha has stated the surge is working: does he have any reason to say this? How about the fact that the corporatists are bent on establishing a permanent presence in Iraq to facilitate control of the oil fields? Notice that I didn't say 'their' oil fields, as we all know who owns them now.
I watched her program but what struck me was that the 2008 election will be even nastier than the previous two cycles. Having said that I want a street fighter in the game. I don't want someone who talks working with the other side. The Repubs as currently constructed are not going to place nice. While I am for Edwards, my feeling is that Clinton is the one who knows how to play Hardball. The knives are out whomever is the Dem candidate....and the Dem better be willing to play the Repub game with even mor ferocity
What did this hack say about the rethuglicans smearing Kerry and Max Clelland? Aren't they both war heros? But wait--they're dems--so that's okay.
Didn't the rethuglicans compare Max to Osama in a commercial? Yes they did.
Where was her outrage?
Dennis @ 92:
The surge isn't working, what a lie. The only reasons violence is down are 1.) the Iraqi insurgents who were fighting us now have turned against al-Qaida, 2.) Baghdad's neighborhoods have been segregated along ethnic lines, 3.) Iraq still has 4+ million refugees who have not yet returned to the country.

I have emailed my demand for an apology from Brown. I just won't hold my breath. She will probably get a medal of freedom.

I'm losing track on the number of times "we won" and that the "war is a success". If herr dubyah made a carrier landing every time the reich-wing claimed "we won" and that the "war is a success" he would have a enough frequent flier miles to make a trip to the moon.
Dennis @ 108:
I'm saying he's oversimplifying things. If it wasn't for the Sunni insurgents turning against al-Qaida there's no way 30,000 extra troops could have made a big difference, IMO.
ChicagoKid aka Lucinda Hole @ 103:
Hell, what did this asshole say about a bunch of dickheads booing a retired gay general with over 40 years of service at the Republican Youtube debates the other night? Squat! Fuck Petraeus...in a few months, it will be revealed he was a lying asshole and then what will they say? Nothing. And what will Democrats say? Nothing, because they're too chickenshit to stand up and actually call these liars and assholes out!
Her use of words like "insurgent' smacks of right wing neo cons reference too anyone who is not on their team as a terrorist or terrorist sympathizer, its as old as the revolutionary war, when our ancestors were labeled "rebels too the crown", one mans terrorist is anothers freedom fighter is another old adage, saying, but there is another old saying "partiotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel", so in my view blind patriotism without using ones own mind is truly foolish, and much like how the Nazi's gained power in pre-world war II germany....., if you were not with us, you were against us, was their mantra...., sound familiar with the neo con right wing, false christians prophets of the right wing, they pay good lip service too Jesus teachings only when certain passages justify their views, when taken with others they are quick too hollar "its up too individual interpitation....
Dennis @ 108:
REich-wingers have been calling Murtha a liar, a communist, a terrorist, and Anti-American for years. Reich-wing turncoats are indeed spineless and lack any capability of independent and original thoughts.
Campbell hasn't changed one bit. Thank goodness she is not on NBC nightly news with Brian Williams anymore.
sk8trboi @ 112:
John Murtha is a Democrat. It's the Democrats who are one by one either waking up to reality here lately, or figuring they better get on the right side of the fence in time for next year's election.
consider that t-shirt on the way. in the meantime check out bluestatements.com
Move on was out of line with that. Regardless of whether Gen P was going to say. THis is the kind of over the line crap that will hand the next election to a Bush clone. THere are a lot of good people out there that are leaning dem. The move on crap makes them think twice.

Awww.. are you jelly you don't have a name for your increasingly lame political stance? I have a suggestion: draw a big pile of dog poop and label it "RE poopie pants LICAN"!

blahsay @ 7:
I am a member of moveon.org and I'm proud to be called an American insurgent for opposing the Bush administration. He's the worst thing that has happened to this country. He's distroyed the reputation of this country and has put our troops in harms way for his own personal agenda. He's blocked every effort to end this war and bring our troops home and has stocked the courts with people who agree with him. Most of his appointments are political and not in the best interests of this country. I really think Bush has mental problems.
Dr. Matt @ 112:
Yep. But no no, its different this time, really! The recent acknowledgment of "permanent occupation" in Iraq really means mission accomplished! We're so fucked that we have to move in.

Oh man! I'm soooo gonna buy shitloads of these fer xmas preznants!!! Mostly to myself! ;)
Isn't she draft age? Go get some hands on, Campbell. What a tool, more liberal bias.
MoveOn must be scaring the shit out of the morons who support this occupation and administration.
If one were into B&D and S&M and water sports, Brown looks like she might be fun to have sex with.
I'm a proud MoveOn supporter, and this continued right-wing rhetoric only serves to remind me that it's time to donate again.

Troll alert!
Dennis @ 118:
Wanna put some money on that Dennis? I like a sure bet. Besides actually the violence against the illegal occupation is already back on the rise.
bluestatements @ 80:
Hey, here's a design idea: Do a "homage" to the solidarity logo. Same font. "Insurgents" with an American flag above.
Truthbtold @ 120:
Could I get a judges ruling on this one? I never know what exactly a "concern troll" is.
"Good people" aren't "leaning dem." Brain-dead morons are "leaning dem." The undecided voter has to be the least intelligent organism on the planet.
The Petraeus hearing was one of the lamest pieces of political theater I have ever seen. His testimony was written by the white house and leaked days before he talked for the benefit of the administration. I don't necessarily agree with the conclusion that he was purposefully betraying the American people. Alternatively, he could be an idiot. I think Moveon was charitable in suggesting he was doing anything intentionally. He was a tool.
I must be an insurrgent
I keep feeling these funny, delightful, surges.

Maybe your mouse is plugged in wrong.
Old Billy @ 140:
Or right. You know, whatever gets you through...
The main reason the surge is not working is because it was supposed to create breathing room for the Iraqi parliament to iron out their remaining political problems, and instead they go on a month long vacation.
Meanwhile the violence has been transformed from fast strikes from the insurrgents to sustained battles by our enlarged troops causing 2007 to be the second deadliest year for us since the war began, and now longer than WWII, but Democrats were running that one.
I actually don't see it as an insult. Anti-American insurgents would be. American insurgents is most certainly not.
Terrible @ 136:
That's precisely the whole point of my post, Terrible. I don't know exactly what it is you want to bet on, but the fact is you want to bet that things get worse there, or that the surge doesn't work.
And that's the problem for the Dems as more and more encouraging reports keep coming back from Iraq and more and more Dems like Murtha declare that the surge is working.
Old Billy @ 138:
I don't get that. Does everyone have be be a true believer? Who gives a f*ck.
Votes, Brotha, Votes.
And by the way, there are alot of 'brain dead morons" out there that are indeed (gasp) "good people".
Stop drinkin yer own Koolaid.
Didn't the Reich-wingers learn, "Bring em' on" is not , generally a real succesful tactic?
