Thanks for posting, Jon. Man what I would’ve loved to be a fly on the wall over at Move-on yesterday.

Let me be the first to thank you for reporting on this. Good on ya.

Kind of funny how the media now claims “brilliance” on the part of Obama by Chosing Petraeus for the job, which they (Olbermann, Chrissy, ABCCBSNBC, et al) trashed Petraeus when he was Bush’s man. Now that he is Obama’s, it begins with moveon scrubbing content from their site.

Uh, Vick joined the Eagles last year, not 1999

Hahahaha! I have no idea how I did that, Lazzzlo. Fixed.

I am simply shocked to learn that an organization as principled as MoveOn would do something like this.

you are great to have reported this, have not read this anywhere else, and this just shows the bias of move-on but then we all knew it didn’t we? they went nuts when it was Bush’s general, not that obama has done this, its suddenly ok for Petraeus, totally agree with you TfT, you should have heard Rush playing the liberal media montage of how brilliant it was of obama to pick Petraeus, it was sickening, unbelieveable, I felt sorry for mccrystal at first, but then find out he voted for obama, is far left leaning, and banned Fox News, and would not let people watch Fox on the tv’s , now I could care less about him, I have always liked Petraeus especially for what he had to take from the congress obama being one of them.

Where has all the character gone to in this country?

Glad someone decided to post this since we mentioned it a number of times here on Mediaite yesterday. Last night the AC360 Live Blog refused to post any mention of MoveOn.org or the removal of this ad which is strange because CNN couldn’t stop talking about it or showing it when it was originally posted by MoveOn.org. This change was done yesterday because I brought up the webpage right after Petraeus was chosen and it was still there, minutes later it was gone.

I guess no matter how much of a liar and evil warmonger MoveOn.org said Petraeus was in the past, as long as he gets the stamp of approval from the incompetent “puppet president” he is suddenly vindicated!

This just goes to show you what type of phony, unscrupulous BS organization MoveOn.org is.

I know it doesn’t surprise you that comments are censored on AC’s blog — that happens all the time. I do laugh out loud when I heard the praise for The One over his choice of Petreaus, when even himself voted present and refused to condemn moveon for it’s outrageous “Betrayus” ad.

Truth be known, the bad judgement in all of this rests on Obama – McChrystal was HIS hand picked guy. And now, he had to reach back to Bush, so for once, when the libs say “It’s Bush’s fault” they will have a point (thus, they won’t say it now).

I too am glad mediaite covered this. There is hope yet for this board….and this is a great example of how they can build audience and gain additional posters. By reporting things the rest of the media ignore and pointing out how the scrubbing of the drubbing Petraeus took when he was Bush’s man is being erased.

Definition of hypocrite as written in Websters – “moveon.org”

Funny how he was a traitor to his country until the Messiah appointed him to something. What a disgrace.

@TfT, As you know I am quite familiar with the censorship on all of CNN’s blogs, but I enjoy pointing it out. I have a feeling they will be forced to mention the MoveOn ad sooner or later anyway.

BTW, altho this is off topic, Nungesser smacked down BO last night on 360, here’s some of what he said:

” Well, the people in the military have those inner thoughts about his administration, the same thoughts all of Louisiana has. He has got a bigger problem than a loose-lipped general. He better take a soul-search and look at the people surrounding him, because the job ain’t getting done here and it obviously ain’t getting done over there.

And we got a serious problem in this country, and the president of the United States better address it, because it’s not just somebody like me or him or anybody sounding off at the mouth. It’s what we truly feel, that we are getting the runaround.”

Ain’t that the truth!

Anderson looked uncomfortable and did not comment on Billy’s remarks.

Move on didn’t come up with phrase, they stole it from NBC news. More precisely, a primetime host on NBC News.

Props when due! Good job Jon!!

“And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. ‘Who controls the past’ ran the Party slogan, ‘controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.’”
…
“Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date. In this way every prediction made by the Party could be shown by documentary evidence to have been correct; nor was any item of news, or any expression of opinion, which conflicted with the needs of the moment, ever allowed to remain on record. All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary.”
…
“If the Party could thrust its hand into the past and say this or that even, it never happened—that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death.”

From “1984″ by George Orwell

Petraeus under Bush = Traitor
Petraeus under The One = Hero

So easy a caveman could do it!

Who are you, and what have you done with the REAL Mediaite?

So typical of lib hypocrites. Nothing new here. Move along!

My Goodness what the hail was he thinking, Gen. McCrystal. I respect, this Gentleman for what he represents, His career but not RESPECTING the president, and I mean any president , no matter what color , This General clearly didn’t like the fact that he had to take orders from a black man, This man career is gone down the drain, No one respects The president, and that’s sad the people didn’t even give him a chance anything that the president try to change all hail breaks loose, OBAMA said that change is coming, why don’t we accept it, We as people only know what’s happening from the news, The media sucks especially Fox Five, and we only do they criticize and ridicule everything he does, so what in the hail do the people want, everybody knows Cheney blew up the rigs in Louisianan, its his company that’s cleaning the shit up, (CONTRACTS) hahahahahahahah Cheney is laughing his ass off all the way to the bank..
