Not foul at all! Though I imagine we're the only ones interested in this topic about now. Yes, MoveOn allowed that entry to get through, apologized up the wazoo and vowed to screen more effectively from now on. It did afford a great opportunity for the right to play, to borrow LindyBill's word for it, Gotcha.

My reference, I think it should be clear, is to the double standard among the RWers where Hitler (or Osama) comparisons are concerned. I've cited specific examples that preceded the bad decision by someone (I'd put my money on a young volunteer, or a couple of them, who had the assignment of screening the 1000+ entries but very little life experience; the selection of the Army of One ad produced by the same guy shows callow youth at work, too, imo, though in a different way) at MoveOn who has the judgment of a newt. In this post is a reminder:
