MoveOn.org Vows to Withhold Dem Donations Because Schumer Acting Too Lieberman

PJMedia- In protest of Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) acting too “Joe Lieberman” by deciding to vote against the Iran deal, MoveOn.org says it’s mobilizing a donor boycott of the Democratic Party.

“Diplomacy has yielded an agreement between the world’s major powers and Iran that will prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. The only other means of limiting Iran’s nuclear program is war,” MoveOn.org political action executive director Ilya Sheyman said in a statement. “While not unexpected, it is outrageous and unacceptable that the Democrat who wants to be the party’s leader in the Senate is siding with the Republican partisans and neoconservative ideologues who are trying to scrap this agreement and put us on the path to war.”

“…Our country doesn’t need another Joe Lieberman in the Senate, and it certainly doesn’t need him as Democratic leader. The vast majority of Democratic voters — the people who elected President Obama in part because of our shared belief that war must always be a last resort — will not stand for it…. No real Democratic leader does this. If this is what counts as ‘leadership’ among Democrats in the Senate, Senate Democrats should be prepared to find a new leader or few followers. This is not what the volunteers, activists, small-dollar donors, and voters who actually win elections spend their time and money to support.”  MORE

  1. A good strategy to attack professional political puppets at one of their weak points – their love of money, but ultimately futile. Those Moron.org basement dwellers couldn’t possibly match the contributions of the political donor class. They’re just playing their usual role in this latest piece of political theatre, the useful idiot chorus line.

  2. Hahaha! This is all theater. Obombomb has the votes and Chuckie needed to act all tough for his constituents. So, they meet, little o tells Chuckie to go ahead, but don’t work to gain any more support other than the few we have planted (they do this to make the Rs think they have more support than they actually have so they won’t work harder to really pose a threat).

    Boy, are the kids at MoveOn.org going to feel stupid. Soros will take them to the woodshed to teach them to not think for themselves. Just do as you’re told.
