Rove Shines Light On MoveOn Cockroaches

So who was Karl Rove talking about in his speech in NY when he said, "In the wake of 9/11, conservatives believed it was time to unleash the might and power of the United States military against the Taliban; in the wake of 9/11 liberals believed it was time to submit a petition." Rove continued: "I am not joking. Submitting a petition is precisely what MoveOn.org did. It was a petition imploring the powers that be to 'use moderation and restraint in responding to the terrorist attacks against the United States.' "

Well Byron York has a good post that provides a little history about MoveOn

My question is why don't organizations like MoveOn not stand-up and defend their position if that is the one they have be promoting all along? I guess the spot light gets brighter when the audience widens and its no longer just the ultra left.
