MoveOn to Fund Primary Challengers to Any Senator Who Blocks Up or Down Vote
EmailIn the wake of Tuesday’s vote democrats have made hay of a GOP civil war but all is not well on their side either. Move-On and Democracy of America are putting up $3.5 million to fund primary challenges against any Democratic Senator who blocks an up or down vote on the public option.
Liberal democrats have been at war with centrist democrats throughout the health care debate. Remember this ad against Nebraska’s Ben Nelson:
That drew rebukes from several senators including Chuck Schumer. Will those same senators tell Move-on to stand down too? Or, at the end of the day will any democrat block a vote on the public option?

Funny part is that $3.5 million doesn’t buy you much anymore. How much did Bloomberg just spend in NY?

Nelson took money from special interest?
How much $$$ did Obama take from the SEIU, other labor unions and ACORN. Isn’t MOVEON, special interest?

Nothing like an extremist movement, to try to dictate to the rest of the country, how it should act.

This only confirms how bad this bill is and how corrupt the democratic party really is. Bring it on Soros spend all your greedy oil money because we are not backing down!

MoveOn.org is a bunch of loons. I get their emails all the time and wonder to myself who is stupid enough to believe what they say. If Senators are going to give into a special interest group like MoveOn instead of doing what’s right for their tax paying constituents then they should be voted out of office.
Plus when the 20 & 30 somethings find out how bad this health bill is for them MoveOn.org and Democrats will pay the price.

AARP sold out their members. Pelosi has broke her promise to keep the final bill up on the website for 72 hours. Her word isn’t worth much. And the Medicare actuary will not have the medicare costs figured before the vote. So typical of the Dems totry to push this through without all the info, trying to sneak it past the voter. This bill is a disaster for our medical system.

Their gig is up…Americans now know what they are about and we will be prepared for them..They are liberal Democrats who want to bully everyone and control all, but it will not work this time…..THEY DO NOT REPRESENT MOST OF AMERICANS.

Thomas Jefferson was right “what we have most to fear is an uneducated electorate”. Remember due unto others as you would have done unto yourself!

They’ll put their money where their mouth is and a whole lot more. They’ve done it before and do it again. Too bad they don’t believe in “fact” check documentaries.

People that judge what will happen in an economic environment with little or no economic knowledge are frauds. THAT’S WHY COMMENTS ON THESE TYPES OF SITE ARE POLITICALLY MOTIVATED AND FILLED WITH DECEPTION OR JUST SIMPLY UNINFORMED AND IGNORANT CONSERVATIVES.

Progress is a forward motion. If you are not moving us forward then moving us no where or backward is not anything but hurtful. I looking at many commentors. I see agenda based language that reeks with the stench of conservative propaganda. The NEW NAZI PARTY.

Hurry! Plenty of employment opportunities coming up with the NEA. They will have plenty of government money to put together the campaign media for 2010. Care to guess for which political camp?

“Liberal democrats have been at war with centrist democrats throughout the health care debate.”
Just compassionate, tolerant, Dems celebrating their big tent.

George, I know you would never say it this way about Democrats, but it would appear they are shrinking the size of their tent. Even the nuances of media bias apparently cannot be avoided.

Who does MoveOn think they are to try nd threaten. A democratic senator can make his own decision on public option and if they don’t like it that’s too bad. This is not Russia, this is America and who are they to try and control the democratic senators. They need a good wake up call with more republicans winning elections.
Posted by: Mariann Pepitone | November 6, 2009, 7:13 pm 7:13 pm
bailedout: You are absolutely right. They want to control the Democratic Party and tell them what they can do and not do. I think right now they are walking on think ice because the Democrats are not paying attention to them so they are making demands to get themselves in the limelight again.

Only real stupid democrats like moveon.org. Most dems are decent people.

If we want representation in our legislatures then we NEED one term one time. Along with strict champagne finance laws which do not allow special interest groups to cloud the facts of any candidate with their money and power gained from the career politicians they have in their pockets. It is our voices, not able to be heard that is broken in the current system. There needs to be BIG change in our legislatures because of the way the electorate is ignored by our representatives once they get into office. On the day our candidates take their oaths to serve us they are already selling us out to keep their seats.

“Atlas Shrudded” by Ann Ryann should be required reading by every high school senior as well as our congress so seniors will learn and congress might remmember or learn for the first time what made “America” the great country ithas become.

And I thought extortion was illegal.
Posted by: TX_MBell | November 7, 2009, 10:50 pm 10:50 pm
This needs to be investigated for racketeering and extortion. We need at least one of these legislators to come forth and confess their vote was based upon this extortion. This will let us know just how compromised our legal system has become. This whole issue is a ominous validation of how special interest has corrupted our national politics. We need an Eliot Ness to take this on but the FBI is compromised and anyone in the FBI would be kept from pursuing these criminal organizations.
