Antiwar Kooks Threaten Democrats

This is what happens when you get into bed with the lunatic fringe from the likes of MoveOn and their ilk.
On Thursday, leaders of the liberal group MoveOn.org, including Tom Matzzie, the group’s Washington director who also serves as the campaign manager for the coalition, sent a harshly worded warning to the Democratic leadership.

“In the past few days, we have seen what appear to be trial balloons signaling a significant weakening of the Democratic position,” the letter read. “On this, we want to be perfectly clear: if Democrats appear to capitulate to Bush — passing a bill without measures to end the war — the unity Democrats have enjoyed and Democratic leadership has so expertly built, will immediately disappear.”

The letter went on to say that if Democrats passed a bill “without a timeline and with all five months of funding,” they would essentially be endorsing a “war without end.” MoveOn, it said, “will move to a position of opposition.”
Exactly where these morons would go is unclear. But since they now represent the base of the Democrat Party, it will be interesting to see the verbal gymnastics coming forth from Harry Reid and his cronies in the upcoming weeks.

More from Jules Crittenden, Wizbang!
